1. INTRODUCTION.
1.1. The Electrothermal series of heating mantles has been specifically designed to
provide a comprehensive answer to heating fluids in round bottomed glassware in
the modern laboratory. It combines the traditional Electrothermal heating element
with many new features thus providing the user with several options to meet different
applications.
1.2. Heating control is provided by a built-in solid state energy regulator. Non stirring
mantles can be used with an external controller. (Please contact distributor /
manufacturer for details).
1.3. The enclosures of EME’s are housed in aluminium cases with a paint finish to give
good chemical resistance while the bowl surrounds are made from Polypropylene.
1.4. The products are provided with ventilation slots underneath and around the rim to
ensure a low enclosure surface temperature. The heating element is retained in
thermal Rockwool to create a heating cartridge that facilitates very easy replacement
in the event of any damage. All EME’s are supplied with support rods and clamps.
1.5. Electrothermal offers a comprehensive mantle range with the Standard cool-to-touch
vented case with element temperatures between ambient and 450 deg C.
1.6. EME Mantles are provided with the option of three or six recesses, built in solid-state
energy controllers and choice of heater or heater/stirrer combinations. Capacities for
flasks range from 100ml to 1000ml. All Extraction Mantles have individual energy
regulator with indicator light for each heater cartridge position, allowing liquids with
different boiling points to be heated alongside each other. The robust construction
permits continuous operation of the units as required by routine extraction tests.

3. SAFETY INFORMATION.
This product has been designed for safe operation when used as detailed in accordance with
the Manufacturers instructions.
NOTE: Failure to use this equipment in accordance with the manufactures instruction book
may compromise your basic safety protection afforded by the equipment and may invalidate
the warranty / guarantee. The warranty / guarantee does not cover damaged caused by faulty
installation or misuse of the equipment
3.1. Prevention of Fire and Electric Shock.
To prevent a risk of fire or electric shock, DO NOT open your product
case without authorisation. Only qualified Service personnel should
attempt to repair this product.
Replace fuses only with the type as listed in section, ‘Technical
Specifications and Parts and Accessories’ (See fuse type and rating).
Ensure the Mains Power Supply conforms to rating found on the data
plate located on the back of this product.
Never Operate this equipment without connection to earth / ground.
Ensure the mains supply voltage is correctly earthed / grounded in
accordance with current area legislation.
3.2. General Safe Operating Practice.
Always follow good laboratory practice when using this
equipment. Give due recognition to your company’s safety and
legislative health & safety procedures and all associated legislation
applicable to your areas of operation. Check laboratory procedures for
substances being heated and ensure all hazards (e.g. explosion,
implosion or the release of toxic or flammable gases) that might arise
have been suitably addressed before proceeding. When heating
certain substances the liberation of hazardous gases may require the
use of a fume cupboard or other means of extraction.
Ensure equipment is used on a clean, dry, non-combustible, solid work
surface with at least 300mm suitable clearance all around from other
equipment.
Do not position the product so that it is difficult to disconnect from the
mains supply.
Do not touch the heating element or any glass vessel whilst in use.
Do not lean or stretch over equipment, glassware and fixings when in
use.
Do not immerse unit in water or fluids.
Do not spill substances onto the mantle. If spillage does occur,
disconnect unit from mains supply and follow instructions as detailed
in Maintenance. (Section 9).
Do not cover the mantle whilst in use. Do not block or obstruct
ventilation slots / airways.
Do not leave equipment switched on without a charged flask(s).
Do not thermally insulate the exposed upper section of the vessel(s),
as the insulation used may obstruct the convection
cooling airways around the rim of the cartridge enclosure and cause
the mantle to overheat.

Page 6 of 24 M8165 Issue 1.1
It is not recommended to leave any heating apparatus unattended
during operation.
Only use Original Equipment manufactures spares and accessories.
Ref Section 10.

designed for use in hazardous areas in terms of BSEN 60079-
14:1997. Keep flammable, low flash point substances away from the
apparatus.
Do not operate or handle any part of the product with wet hands.
Keep the Mains cord and moulded IEC plug and lead set away
from the heating surface.

Unplug the unit from the mains voltage supply and allow it to cool before
undertaking any maintenance tasks.
Maintenance should only be carried out under the direction of the Responsible
Body, by a competent electrician. Failure to do so may result in damage to the product
and in extreme cases be a danger to the end user.
With proper care in operation this equipment has been designed to give many years of
reliable service. Contamination or general misuse will reduce the effective life of this
product and may cause a hazard.
Maintenance for the unit should include:
Periodic electrical safety testing (an annual test is recommended as the minimum
requirement).
Regular inspection for damage with particular attention to the mains lead and
plug set.
Routine cleaning of the equipment should be undertaken using a clean cloth.
DO NOT USE SOLVENTS FOR CLEANING ANY PART OF THIS
EQUIPMENT.
9.2. Fuse Replacement.
The mains fuse holder is located at rear your product. Refer to Technical specification,
‘Fuse Rating’ for correct fuse type and rating. Turn your product off and disconnect it from
the mains supply.
EME6-way Mantle: Unscrew both fuse holder caps from the fuse housings and 
remove the fuses. Fit replacement fuses of the correct rate and value.

9.2.1. Heater Cartridge replacement.
Attention. The heater contains insulation material made from
Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), classified as a category 2 carcinogenic
under EU Directive 67/548/EC. Follow the guidelines for working with RCF
as laid down under in the ECFIA Code of Practise. Wear suitable protective
clothing and gloves.
EME and EMEA mantles contain Rockwool mineral insulation.
When handling a suitable face mask which bears the CE mark should be
used. A face mask to BS/EN 149 is adequate. When handling, wear gloves.
Should skin irritation be experienced it can be lessened by rinsing hands
under cold running water before washing. For further information refer to
guidance note EH46 published by HMSO and technical data sheets
available from Rockwool Limited. Pencoed. Bridgend. CF35 6NY.
In the event of a heater element becoming damaged or open circuit the follow
procedure should be adopted for its replacement.
