Read this section carefully before installing and operating the instrument.
For safe and correct use of the instrument, it is essential that both operating and
service personnel follow generally accepted safety procedures as well as the safety
instructions given in this document, the 402 Dilutor-Dispenser User’s Guide.
The instrument described in this document is a syringe operated pump for transfer-
ring liquids. It should only be used in the laboratory or similar indoor environment for
analytical purposes, by qualified personnel. If an instrument is used in a manner not
specified by Gilson, the protection provided by the instrument may be impaired.
Voltages present inside the instrument are potentially dangerous. If there is a problem
with the instrument, the power cable should be removed until qualified service personnel
have repaired it. This is to prevent anyone from inadvertently using the instrument,
thus causing possible harm to themselves, or damage to the instrument itself.
The leakage current of this instrument is within the limits allowed by international
safety standards for laboratory equipment. An efficient ground connection is impera-
tive for the physical protection of the user.
Power supply cord reference 7080316106 is for use in France and Germany. Power
supply cord reference 7080316105 is for use in USA and Canada. For other countries
contact your local Gilson distributor. You must only use the type of fuse described in
this document: 1.0 Amp type “T” slow blow.
Adequate protection including clothing and ventilation must be provided if dangerous
liquids are used in the analytical work. In case of incidental spillage, carefully wipe with a
dry cloth, taking into account the nature of the spilled liquid and the necessary safety
precautions.
Cleaning, dismantling, maintenance, and repair should only be performed by personnel
trained in such work, and who are aware of the possible dangers involved.
