Digestion Unit K-435 2 Safety

2Safety

The apparatus is manufactured according to state-of-the-art

technology and recognized safety regulations.

Nevertheless, using this apparatus can lead to certain risks

and dangers:

•If the apparatus is used by inadequately trained personnel.

•If the apparatus is not used according to these instructions.

2.1 Symbols

Stop

Information about risks which can lead to extensive property

damage or to serious or life-threatening personal injury.

Warning

Information about risks which can lead to personal injury or to

property damage.

Reference

Information which refers to technical requirements. Failure to

heed these requirements can lead to malfunctions, inefficiency,

and production losses.

2.2 Requirements for the User

The apparatus may be used only by laboratory personnel or

other persons who due to their training or professional

experience are capable of recognizing possible dangers which

might arise from the use of the apparatus.

2.3 Proper Use

The apparatus was designed and built for laboratory use. Its

proper use is the heating of concentrated sulfuric acid for

oxidation of organic sample components.

Digestion Unit K-4352 Safety

2.4 Improper Use

Any use of the apparatus other than that given above or any

use of the apparatus which is not in accordance with the

technical data shall be regarded as a misuse. The operator

bears the sole responsibility for any and all damage which

may result from such misuse.

In particular, the following uses of the apparatus are prohibited:

•Use of the apparatus in rooms which require ex-protected

apparatus.

•Preparing samples which can explode or ignite due to a

blow, friction, heat, or sparks.

2.5 General Risks

In general, risks can arise from

•Hot sulfuric acid

•Flammable gases or solvent vapors in the immediate vicinity

of the apparatus

•Damaged glass equipment

•Placing the apparatus too close to the wall

(see Chapter 4.1, Placement)

•Burns caused by touching hot glass parts.

The removal of covers using standard tools is prohibited except

for authorized maintenance personnel. The apparatus must

not be started up glass equipment is damaged.

Touching any parts of the apparatus carrying electrical current

can result in fatal injury!

2.6 Safety Measures

It is recommended that the apparatus be operated only under

a ventilation hood.

Protective clothing such as goggles, gloves, and labo-

ratory coats must be worn during operation of the apparatus.

These operating instructions must be regarded as an integral

part of the Digestion Unit K-435 and be available at all times

to operating personnel at the place of operation of the

apparatus. This also applies to instructions in other languages,

which may be ordered separately.

Digestion Unit K-435 2 Safety

Modifications

Modifications of the apparatus or of spare parts or accessories

as well as the use of spare parts or accessories other than

those mentioned in these operating instructions is allowed only

with the prior written permission of BÜCHI Labortechnik AG.

Responsibility of the Operator

The operator is responsible for the instruction of his personnel.

Copies of these operating instructions in various languages

can be ordered for this purpose.

The operator shall inform the manufacturer without delay of

any safety-related events which might occur during operation

of the apparatus.

If safe operation of the apparatus no longer appears possible,

the apparatus must be shut down and secured against

unintentional operation.

It must be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible

•if there is visible damage to the apparatus;

•if the apparatus is no longer functioning;

•following a long period of storage under unfavorable

conditions;

•following transport under difficult conditions.

The apparatus must not be operated with flammable

substances.

If it becomes necessary to involve Büchi Service, safety and

environmental protection considerations require that

dangerous substances (e.g., according to EU Regulations L

360, 1976/79, or VBG 16) on or in the apparatus must be

indicated and declared.

Digestion Unit K-435 4 Installation

4Installation

4.1 Placement

The apparatus must be set up on a stable, clean, and level

surface.

The apparatus must be placed with its back at a minimum of

30 cm from walls and other objects in order to prevent

damage. Containers, chemicals, or other apparatus may not

be placed behind the unit.

4.2 Unpacking

Keep the original packaging for the event of a later transport.

If the packaging has been damaged, check the apparatus

carefully for glass breakage or damage to the casing.

Ensure that the voltage of the power outlet corresponds to

the voltage given on the apparatus plate. Always connect the

apparatus to a grounded outlet. This will avoid risks due to

internal defects.

4.3 Connection to Power Supply

Before the K-435 is turned on for the first time, ensure that

the power supply voltage corresponds to the voltage given on

the apparatus plate.

Then connect the apparatus to the power supply with the

apparatus cable.

4 Installation

4.4 Hose Connections

Place the contact guard (A) with the pre-mounted hoses on

the apparatus as shown in the photo.

Assemble the connection to the suction module (B) and mount

it on the hose (C) and on the suction module (D).

To exhaust the digestion gases, connect the EPDM hose (E)

to the Scrubber B-414 or a water jet pump (e.g., one made

of plastic, Article No. 02913). Please note that the shortest

possible hose connections should be used.

When a water jet pump is used, unpleasant odors can escape

into the immediate surroundings if the suction is inadequate.

If only a suction module (D) is used, the unused hose (C) must

be closed with a rubber stopper.

The Scrubber B-414 220 V, 240 V can be connected directly

to the K-435 with a connecting cable (Art. No. 14738).

However, care must be taken that the voltage of the scrubber

corresponds to the voltage of the K-435.

If the apparatus is operated without remote control, the control

of the scrubber B-414 is regulated by the main switch on the

Digestive Unit, or in other cases with the Control Unit B-436.
