hazard). The explosion-proof fume hood / explosion-proof extraction cabinet must be
designed at least for Zone 2. The fume cupboard must be run continuously (24/7).
2. The device must only be operated in rooms without open flames (Bunsen burners, gas
burners or other sources of ignition) (fire hazard).
3. Suitable fire fighting equipment (foam extinguisher, fire blankets) must always be
available to fight any possible fire.

seals) so that any protective functions are intact (fire hazard). The overall condition of the
device must be regularly examined!
5. The device must exclusively be run with the approved 2-mag magnetic stirrer MIX-1-
Ivoclar.
6. The device must only be operated by trained specialists.
7. The cleaning fluid isopropanol must be correctly stored and disposed of (national

equipped for a minimum level of protection of Zone 2 according to ATEX 137 (Definition
Zone 2: A hazardous area classified as an atmosphere where a mixture of air and
flammable substances in the form of gas, vapour or mist is not likely to occur in normal
operation, but if it does occur, will persist for a short period only).
