Inflammation or Injury due to
Toxic, Corrosive or Stimulative Solvent
When using a toxic, corrosive or stimulative solvent, be
careful not to incur a physical inflammation or injury.
For details of the properties of each solvent and how to
handle it, refer to the relevant Material Safety Data Sheets
(MSDS). Be sure to handle each solvent properly.
a) Wear proper protective clothes (e.g., safety goggles) so
that a solvent will not come into direct contact with the
skin.
b) Ventilate the laboratory room adequately to prevent
accidental inhalation of harmful solvent vapor.
Ignition of Flammable Chemicals
This instrument is not explosion-proof. In unattended
operation, do not use organic solvents having a flash point
below 70 C.
Be aware of ignition hazard when using flammable
chemicals such as organic solvents.
a) Do not bring a heat or flame source near the
instrument.
b) Well-ventilate the laboratory room where the instrument
is used.
c) Always check the following conditions. If an
abnormality is found, stop operation immediately.
▪ Leakage of solvent or waste solution.
▪ Leakage of solvent inside the instrument.
When using flammable chemicals, be careful about
possible ignition due to static electricity. To prevent the
build-up of static electricity, use a conductive container for
waste solution and provide proper grounding connection to
it.
