Solvents

CAUTION
CAUTION
NOTE
The mechanical components of leak detectors are
typically cleaned with alcohol, methanol, or other
solvents. When heated, sprayed, or exposed to
high-temperature equipment, these solvents become
flammable and explosive, causing serious injury or
death. Do not use these solvents near a
high-temperature source. Ventilate the working area
with a blower and work in a large, well-ventilated
room.
Alcohol, methanol, or other solvents are irritants,
narcotics, depressants and/or carcinogens. Their
inhalation and/or ingestion may produce serious side
effects. Prolonged or continued contact with the skin
results in absorption through the skin and moderate
toxicity. Always ensure that cleaning operations are
carried out in large, well-ventilated rooms, and wear
eyeshields, gloves, and protective clothing.
Do not clean any aluminum parts with Alconox
Alconox is not compatible with aluminum and will
cause damage.
During reassembly, always use Loctite
(teflon-impregnated pipe thread compound) on pipe
threads.
