18. For Systems equipped with an optional UV photometer, note the following safety guidelines:
• WARNING: The photometer can emit light from ≈200 – 1100nm . Hazardous UV and
IR radiation are emitted from the unit. Never directly stare into the source/return
ports on the photometer or the fiber optic cables, as this can cause eye damage. The
viewer-related risk is dependent on how the users install and use the product.
• Ensure that both ends of the fiber optic cables (photometer and flow cell
connections) are properly secured (firmly hand tight) before powering on the
photometer.
• The photometer should always be powered off when handling the fiber optic cables.
If you must handle the fibers when the unit is powered on, protective eyewear must
be worn.
• In the event of product failure, do not attempt to open the unit or replace the LED.
