2. Before operating the unit
Installation procedures/precautions
(4)
Do not put an specimen on the bottom of the internal bath.
・
Operating the unit with a specimen directly put on the bottom of the internal bath might
degrade its temperature characteristics. This also may cause corrosion, damage or rust of
the internal bath. Never put any specimen on the bottom surface.
・
When putting specimens, take care not to allow them touching the wall on which the heater,
the sensor or other devices are installed. Put specimens on the shelf board included with the
unit.
(5)
Take special care for specimens including:
①
Specimen that contains a flammable or explosive component.
・
This unit is not explosion-proof. Never attempt to dry or process a specimen that contains a
flammable or explosive component.
②
Corrosive specimen
・
Take care for handling a corrosive specimen. Although stainless steel is used for major
components of this unit, they might corrode if they are subject to strong acid. Also note
that packing may corrode with acid, alkaline substances, oil, or organic solvent.
③
Specimen that contains much moisture
・
While operating the unit at a lower temperature, cooling capacity of the evaporator may be
degraded and the set temperature may not be maintained due to too much frost on the
evaporator. When frost is confirmed through the frost observation window at the bottom of
the bath in the unit, perform defrosting.
