Warning: Hot Surfaces!
Several components (mainly all stepper motors, the air heating element, the water pump
and the vacuum pump) of the S8 spectrometer get very hot during standard operation due
to power dissipation and could cause severe burns when being touched. Normally, these
components cannot be accessed as the S8's side panels are installed and, the motors
inside the sample loader are covered by metal pieces. But, during maintenance and repair
the hot surfaces could be touched by accident.
Be aware that the surface temperature of internal S8 components might exceed 100°C
(212°F) whenever the S8 is switched on. Before touching any of these components turn off
the instrument and wait until the components have cooled down sufficiently.
Caution: Moving mechanical components!
The samples to be measured are positioned by means of a fast XYZ sample changer sys-
tem. To prevent personal injury, all motions are immediately stopped if the sample maga-
zine cover is opened.
If you suspect that the safety system does not work correctly, immediately switch off the
system and contact your local Bruker AXS Service Representative.
Manipulations and modifications of the cover control are strictly forbidden!
Caution: Oil!
The vacuum pump uses oil as a lubricant. Disposal of oil must comply with all applicable
national, state, and local regulations.
