WARNING
Sample fluid danger prevention
When toxic sample fluid comes into contact with any part of the human body
or when toxic gases generated by the sample fluid are breathed, there is a
danger of severe injury or death.
When sample fluid comes into contact with other objects in the vicinity, there
is a risk of fire, explosion, corrosion, deformation or other effects.
Observe the following points closely to prevent the danger of sample fluid
leaks and sample fluid accretion.
zDo not pass sample fluids which can cause corrosion of fluid-contacting
parts (PFA, sapphire) through the system.
zObserve the following points when setting up or dismantling a measurement
system.
- Check the sample fluid for any risks due to toxicity or other harmful
properties.
- Make sure that sample fluid cannot leak from the system and come
into contact with body parts, clothing etc.
- When attaching or detaching tubes, connectors etc., always use
appropriate protective tools and wear dual-layer gloves.
- Double-check all connections before starting the sample fluid flow.
zSince the unit does not incorporate a leak sensor or other safety device,
perform a thorough leak check to verify safety before starting operation.
zThe pressure of sample fluid passed through the unit may not exceed
300 kPa (gauge pressure). Ensure that the supply system (sampler,
sample fluid lines etc.) has sufficient pressure resistance.
zWhen using sample fluid which may produce harmful gases, provide
adequate ventilation as prescribed by applicable laws and regulations.
v
zBefore and after measurement, clean the entire sample fluid system
thoroughly to remove any remnants. Otherwise unwanted effects such as
thermal build-up, hardening, particle accumulation etc. can occur. This is
especially important to prevent the possibility of serious accidents when
using the unit to measure different types of sample fluids.
zBefore starting to prepare the system for storage, complete the cleaning
process with pure water and verify neutrality (pH7).
zDispose of waste sample fluid only as prescribed by applicable laws and
regulations.
zNever mix waste sample fluid with other substances unless absolute safety
has been established.

WARNING
The unit uses a laser source
This unit is designated as a class 1 laser product
according to IEC 60825-1 (2001). The internal
particle detector mechanism uses a laser, but it is
fully shielded so that the beam cannot exit from
the enclosure.
The identification label shown at right is affixed to the top of the unit.
Laser Precautions
The particle detector mechanism in
this unit uses a laser classified as a
class 3B laser product according to
IEC 60825-1 (2001).
The laser source can cause blindness
if viewed directly, and can cause skin
injuries if the skin is exposed directly
to the beam.
Never open the cover, because this involves the risk of exposure to the laser
beam.
The warning label shown at right is affixed to the top of the unit.
Caution
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
viii
Warning Labels
The following types of warning labels are used with this unit.
Warning label for sample fluid and handling INLET and
OUTLET
The label specifies the maximum
sample fluid pressure as 300 kPa
(gauge pressure). The label is affixed
to the front panel of the unit. The
label also states that a shock and/or
an excessive force on the INLET and
OUTLET may cause the deformation
and/or fluid leaks.
Laser product description label (Class 1)
Indicates that this unit is designated as a class 1
laser product according to IEC 60825-1 (2001).
The label is affixed to the top of the unit.
