1. GENERAL
Explosion of Vapor from Flammable Chemicals
If a flammable chemical such as organic solvent leaks from
the flow path of the instrument and its vapor concentration
exceeds the explosion limit, it may cause spontaneous
combustion with dangerously explosive results.
When using a flammable and ready volatile chemical, be
sure to check for leakage from the instrument flow path and
ventilate the laboratory room adequately.
Inflammation or Injury due to Toxic, Corrosive or
Stimulative Solvent
When using a toxic, corrosive or stimulative solvent, be
careful not to incur a physical inflammation or injury.
For details of the properties of each solvent and how to
handle it, refer to the relevant Material Safety Data Sheets
(MSDS). Be sure to handle each solvent properly.
(a) Wear proper protective clothes (e.g., safety goggles)
so that a solvent will not come into direct with the skin.
(b) Ventilate the laboratory room adequately to prevent
accidental inhalation of harmful solvent vapor.
