Safety Precautions
2 Safety Precautions
2.1 Intended Use
The product is a manifold. A vacuum filtration system is formed by connecting the
manifold to a pump.
You can use this vacuum filtration system in combination with the corresponding
membrane filters to inspect a wide range of liquids for microbiological contamination.
The manifold is thus a key component in microbiological quality control for liquid
samples.
Operating Conditions for the Product
The product may only be used indoors. The product may only be used with the
equipment and under the operating conditions described in the Technical Data
section of these instructions.
The product must be operated with negative pressure. The vacuum source to generate
the negative pressure must be suitable for the product (for suitability, see Chapter
“13.2 Connections and Hoses”, page 38).
Modifications to the Product
You must not modify or repair the product or make any technical changes. Any
retrofitting or technical changes to the product are only permitted with prior written
permission from Sartorius.
2.2 Personnel Qualification
If persons who do not possess sufficient knowledge about safely handling the product
are working on the product, those people can injure themselves or others.
t Ensure that all persons working on the product possess the necessary skills and
qualifications (for a description, see Chapter “1.3 Target Groups”, page 7).
