Safety instructions
/// General information
› Read the operating instructions in its entirety before using the
device and follow the safety instructions.
› Keep the operating instructions in a place where it can be accessed by everyone.
› Ensure that only trained staff work with the device.
› Follow the safety instructions, guidelines, occupational health and safety
and accident prevention regulations.
› Electrical outlet must be grounded (protective ground contact).
› Attention – Magnetism! Effects of the magnetic field have to be taken
into account (e.g. data storage media, cardiac pacemakers ...).
› Risk of burns! Exercise caution when touching parts of the housing and
the heating plate.
› The heating plate can reach dangerous temperatures. Pay attention to the
residual heat on the heating plate after switching off the stirrer.
/// Device design
› Danger! Do not use the device in explosive atmospheres, it is not EX-protected.
› With substances capable of forming an explosive mixture, appropriate
safety measures must be applied, e.g. working under a fume hood.
EN
› To avoid body injury and property damage, observe the relevant safety
and accident prevention measures when processing hazardous materials.
› Notice! Set up the device in a spacious area on an even, stable, clean,

non-slip, dry and fireproof surface.
4
› The feet of the device must be clean and undamaged.
11
› Ensure that the power cord set / temperature sensor cable does not touch
12
the heating plate.
› Check the device and accessories for damage before each use. Do not use
12
damaged components.

/// Permissible medium / contaminants / side reactions
13
› Warning! Only process media that will not react dangerously to the extra
13
energy produced through processing. This also applies to any extra energy
14
produced in other ways, e.g. through light irradiation.
› Beware of hazards due to:
14
- flammable materials,
15
- glass breakage,
15
- incorrect container size,
15
- overfilling of media,
16
- unsafe condition of container.
› Process pathogenic materials only in closed vessels under a suitable fume
hood.
› Warning!
The safety temperature must be set in accordance with EN 61010-2-010
Chapter "Requirements for devices containing or using flammable liquids".
- The surface temperature of the flammable medium that is exposed to
air may not exceed its flash point.
A danger usually arises if a medium is heated in open vessels.
- The surface temperature of the heating device (e.g. the mounting
plate) may not exceed the value of (t - 25) °C (= set value of the
safety circuit) on the surface of the flammable medium and in contact
with air, whereby t is the fire point of the liquid.
A danger usually arises if a medium is heated in glass vessels (glass
breakage).
If a setting made by the user (medium temperature or safety temperature)
could bring a flammable medium into a state in which the conditions
mentioned above could be exceeded, additional measures must be
introduced that will protect the user from this danger.
› The heating plate can heat up due to the action of the magnets at high
motor speeds, even if the heater is switched off.
› It may be possible for wear debris from rotating accessory parts to reach
the material being processed.
› When using PTFE-coated magnetic bars, the following has to be noted:
