Maintenance/Check Procedure; Checking And Cleaning The Flow Cell - Hitachi ChromasterUltra RS 6430 Instruction Manual

5.4 Maintenance/Check Procedure

5.4.1 Checking and Cleaning the Flow Cell

Ignition of flammable chemicals!
This instrument is not explosion-proof.
During unmanned operation, avoid use of organic solvents
having an ignition point below 70 C.
Beware of an ignition hazard when using flammable
chemicals such as organic solvents.
(a) Do not bring a flame source near the instrument.
(b) Ventilate the laboratory room adequately.
(c) Always check the following conditions, and if an
abnormality is found, stop operation at once.
 Leakage of solvent or waste solution
 Leakage of solvent inside the instrument
Beware of an ignition hazard due to static electricity when
using flammable chemicals.
To prevent a build-up of static electricity, use a conductive
container for waste solution and provide proper grounding
connection to it.
Explosion of vapor from flammable chemicals!
If a flammable chemical such as organic solvent leaks from
the flow path of the instrument and its vapor concentration
reaches the explosion limit, it could cause spontaneous
combustion with dangerously explosive results. When using
a flammable and readily volatile chemical, be sure to check
for leakage from the instrument flow path and ventilate the
laboratory room adequately.
