Commissioning
With the flask in the lower end position, fill the heating bath until the fluid reaches a level
t
between the MIN/MAX marks on the inside.
The maximum filling volume is 6 liters. Recommended filling quantity: Depending on the
y
flask size and the immersion angle: 2.2 L to 4.5 L.
Emptying the heating bath
CAUTION
The heating bath is designed for a maximum operating temperature of 210°C
(using silicone oil). From a liquid temperature of 50 °C, there is a risk of
injury in the event of contact.
Always grip and hold the heating bath by the ergonomic safety handles on
the side!
Before emptying the heating bath, allow heated liquid to cool down to below
50 °C.
Use suitable personal protective equipment (heat-resistant gloves, eye
protection, safety clothing) to empty the heating bath.
Move the flask lift to the upper end position (see "Flask lift" on page 82).
t
Disconnect the 7-pin connecting cable between the heating bath and the base unit.
t
Remove the heating bath from the base plate of the base unit.
t
When changing the bath liquid, the heating bath must be thoroughly cleaned
and dried.
In particular, when changing from water to oil, make sure that the heating
bath temperature is only slowly and gradually augmented during restart
(recommendation: 10 °C), so that remaining water in the system can evapo-
rate until the process temperature is reached.
Intermediate valve (option)
The [Intermediate valve] system extension was
specially developed for applications for drying
substances. It helps the user to separate fractions
(liquid/liquid or liquid/solid) without the distillate
boiling back, in order to be able to end processes in a
controlled manner.
The optional intermediate valve [1] is mounted
between the condenser [2] and the receiving flask [3]
of the device, detailed installation instructions and
further information on the display of the interme-
diate valve on the user interface are provided on the
enclosed information sheet 01-005-006-86.
Cooling water and vacuum connection
The cooling water and vacuum are supplied via the condenser used. Please observe the specific
installation instructions for the individual glassware.
