8 Safety for Users

Once they have been used, never re-use capillaries in other
areas of the HPLC system.

Only use a given PEEK fitting for one specific port and never
re-use it for other ports. Always install new PEEK fittings on
each separate port.

Follow KNAUER or manufacturer's instructions on caring for
the columns
More safety-relevant information is listed below:

flammability: Organic solvents are highly flammable. Since
capillaries can detach from their screw fittings and allow sol-
vent to escape, it is prohibited to have any open flames near
the analytical system.

solvent tray: Risk of electrical shock or short circuit if liquids
get into the device's interior. For this reason, place all bottles
in a solvent tray.

solvent lines: Install capillaries and tubing in such a way that
liquids cannot get into the interior in case of a leak.

leaks: Regularly check if any system components are leaking.

power cable: Defective power cables are not to be used to
connect the device and the power supply system.

self-ignition point: Only use eluents that have a self-ignition
point higher than 150 °C under normal ambient conditions.

power strip: If several devices are connected to one power
strip, always consider the maximum power consumption of
each device.

power supply: Only connect devices to voltage sources,
whose voltage equals the device's voltage.

toxicity: Organic eluents are toxic above a certain concentra-
tion. Ensure that work areas are always well-ventilated! Wear
protective gloves and safety glasses when working on the
device!
Never use the system in potentially explosive atmospheres with-
out appropriate protective equipment. For further information,
contact the Technical Support of KNAUER.
At any time, take the device completely out of operation by
