1. WARNINGS AND SAFETY INFORMATION
The MAX 5000XL moisture analyzer complies with
the Underwriter Laboratories Inc. standards and
European Council Directives, for Electrical
Equipment for Laboratory Use, electromagnetic
compatibility, and the stipulated safety
requirements. However, improper use or handling
of the instrument can result in damage to the
equipment and/or injury to personnel.
The MAX 5000XL is Equipment Class I, Pollution
Degree 2, and Installation Category II.
Read these operating instructions thoroughly before
using your moisture analyzer to prevent damage to
the equipment. Keep these instructions in a safe
place.
The following instructions will help to ensure safe
and trouble-free operation of your MAX 5000XL.
Use the analyzer only for performing
moisture/solids/ashing analysis of samples.
Any improper use of the analyzer can endanger
persons and may result in damage to the
analyzer or other material assets.
Place analyzer in an appropriate fume hood for
ashing and/or burning a sample.
When ashing and/or burning a sample, use the
ash rate to slow ignition and prevent flaming. If
the sample flames, it will damage the heater
and produce poor test results.
Do not use this analyzer in a hazardous
area/location; operate it only under the ambient
conditions specified in these instructions.
Although the analyzer is simple to operate and
is very user friendly, it should only be operated
by qualified persons who are familiar with the
properties of the sample being analyzed.
Ensure, before getting started, that the voltage
rating printed on the manufacturer's label is
identical to your local line voltage (see the
section on AC Power Connection beginning on
page 14).
The MAX 5000XL is provided with a power cord
that has a protective grounding conductor. Do
not operate the unit without the supplied
three-wire power cord or an identical
recognized equivalent that meets all applicable
standards.
AZI does not recommend the use of an
extension cord. However, if one must be used,
use an extension cord that meets all applicable
standards and has a protective grounding
conductor.
Do not remove the protective grounding wire
from the power supply circuit
With the power switch off, power is still applied
to the power entry module. Remove the power
cord from the MAX 5000XL to ensure complete
power removal from the instrument.
Position the power cable so that it cannot touch
any hot areas of the analyzer.
Use only AZI supplied accessories and options
with the MAX 5000XL or check with AZI before
using any third party accessories, such as
printers and analytical balances, to verify
compatibility.
If there is visible damage to the MAX 5000XL or
its power cord, unplug and isolate the unit first
and then call Customer Service at
800-528-7411 or 602-470-1414.
Do not open the housing of the MAX 5000XL.
There are no user serviceable parts or
adjustments inside the unit. Any maintenance
inside the unit is to be performed by
factory-trained technicians only. Any
unauthorized inspection and/or maintenance of
the MAX 5000XL will make the warranty null
and void.
Lithium Coin Cell Battery
The MAX 5000XL contains a lithium battery to
keep power on the clock when the unit is turned
off.
CAUTION The battery may explode if
mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble or
dispose of in fire.
Prevent excess heat build-up around the
analyzer
When setting up the analyzer, leave enough
space to prevent heat from building up and to
keep your analyzer from overheating. Leave 20
cm (about 8 in.) around the analyzer and 1 m
(about 3 ft.) above the unit.
Do not put any flammable substances on, under
or near the analyzer, because the area around
the unit will heat up, especially during the
self-cleaning cycle.
Use extreme care when removing the sample
from the chamber. Although the ceramic heating
chamber cools rapidly, the sample itself, the
sample pan, and the heating element can still be
extremely hot.
