The user is always responsible for the fluid used. Never use corrosive
fluids with this unit.
Never use 100% glycol.
Handling and disposal of liquids other than water should be done
in accordance with the fluid manufacturers specification and/or the
MSDS for the fluid used.
Always adjust the unit's software to the fluid used, see Section 4.
When using water above 80°C closely monitor the fluid level, frequent
top-offs will be required. It will also create steam.
Water/glycol mixtures require top-offs with pure water, otherwise the
percentage of glycol will increase resulting in high viscosity and poor
performance.
Transparent Acrylic Bath and Polyphenylene oxide (PPO) Bath
Circulators are used with water only.
The fluid information is only a guide since specifications may change.
Fisher Scientific takes no responsibility for damages caused by the selection
of an unsuitable bath fluid.
Unsuitable bath fluids are fluids which:
• are very highly viscous (much higher than 30 mPas at the respective
working temperature)
• have corrosive characteristics or
• tend to break down at high temperatures
For fluid selection consider application requirements, operating temperature
range, material compatibility, safety concerns, and environmental issues.
