For Your Safety; General Cautions - MasterCool ULTIMA ID PRO Betriebshandbuch

For Your Safety:

PLEASE READ THIS MANUAL IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE ATTEMPTING INSTALLATION OR OPERATION!
Attempting to operate the Ultima ID Pro™ without fully understanding its features and functions may result in
unsafe conditions.
Analyzer Warnings
• REFRIGERANT BLEND WARNING: The HVAC industry is ever evolving new refrigerants. Many of these new blends can be
identified and/or profiled using the Ultima ID Pro™.
• SAMPLE FILTER WARNING: Replace the sample filter of the instrument AS SOON AS RED SPOTS OR DISCOLORATION
BEGIN TO APPEAR ON THE OUTSIDE DIAMETER OF THE WHITE ELEMENT. Failure to properly maintain and replace the
sample filter will result in severe damage or inaccurate results.
• SAMPLE INPUT WARNING: The instrument includes sampling options. One for High Side Liquid sampling and one for Low
Side Vapor Sampling. Failure to use the correct hose configuration on the proper sample port may result in incorrect readings
and/or damage to the instrument. DO NOT attempt to introduce liquid or samples heavily laden with oil into the Low Side
sampling hose configuration. Damage caused to the instrument due to the use of the wrong hose configuration on the wrong
port will void the warranty!
• BATTERY CHARGING WARNING: When charging the internal battery with the supplied power supply, the power supply may
become warm. If the power supply becomes warm, unplug the immediately! When charging multiple analyzers, allow the
charger to cool between each battery.

General Cautions

• ALWAYS wear eye and skin protection when working with refrigerants. Escaping refrigerant vapors will
present a freezing danger.
• ALWAYS turn the compressor OFF before connecting the instrument to an air conditioning system.
• ALWAYS inspect the sample hose before each use. Replace the hose if it appears cracked, frayed,
structed or fouled with oil.
• DO NOT direct refrigerant vapors venting from hoses towards the skin.
• DO NOT disassemble the instrument. There are no serviceable components internal to the instrument and
disassembly will void the warranty.
• ALWAYS place the Analyzer on a flat and sturdy surface.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not disassemble the instrument; do not use the instrument in wet
or damp areas.
• Some systems may contain hydrocarbons or flammable refrigerants. This analyzer is designed with
sealed heat sources and without sparking components. Ensure adequate ventilation and always take
proper precautions when working with refrigerants.
• DO NOT breathe refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose, and throat. If
accidental system discharge occurs, immediately ventilate the work area.
• DO NOT utilize any hose assembly other than those supplied with the instrument. The use of other hose
types will introduce errors into the refrigerant analysis and instrument calibration.
• ALWAYS verify that the refrigerant which is tested from the Low Side does not contain or will not emit
heavy loads of oil or liquid.
