6WARNING
The URS600CE must be connected either to an explosion-proof ATEX
receptacle using an ATEX explosion-proof plug or by direct connection
to an explosion-proof switch that is suitable for ATEX zone 1 & 2 gas
group IIA (in accordance with the ATEX installation standard EN 60079-
14). Never connect the URS600CE yourself. Always use a competent,
certified ATEX installer.
6WARNING If your workplace does not comply with ATEX requirements then you
may not use the URS600CE. We advise you to seek advice from an
ATEX expert.
6WARNING The URS600CE may only be operated by users who have read and
understood the URS600CE manual and who are familiar with the risks and
work instructions within the company in the context of the safety plan.
6WARNING Never move the URS600CE during the recycling process. This can lead
to a dangerous situation.
6WARNING If there are doubts about the safe use of your URS600CE, always contact
your supplier or Uni-ram Corporation before operating the URS600CE.
6WARNING Only recycle solvent mixtures with a self-ignition temperature above
280°C. For example, any mixture containing nitro-cellulose should not be
recycled because it may self-ignite at 135°C.
6WARNING
At the moment the HEAT light goes out, the solvent and the URS600CE
are still near the boiling temperature. When the temperature drops below
50°C, the cooling fan stops and the FAN LED light goes out. Only then
has the machine cooled down sufficiently such that the safety cover and
the tank lid can be opened safely.
6WARNING
Unplug the power cord or switch off the breaker and “lock” before all
maintenance and service work. Confirm that power to the machine is
off. If the URS600CE is in operation, first follow the steps in chapter 2.3
'Safe shutdown', and then unplug the power cord.
6BE CAREFUL Do not recycle acidic or chlorinated solvents as they can damage the
machine and jeopardize safe operation.
Please note! Water absorbs more heat than solvents and needs more time to recycle. The URS600CE
works well with water, it works faster with solvents.
Please note! Solvents suitable for recycling may be flammable. Set up and follow safe work practices for
storing and transporting flammable solvents.
Please note! One extra Liner Bag is supplied as a spare part, but order new ones before they run out.
Order only recycler bags made by Uni-ram. A package of 10 bags is part number LB900C-10. Other

1.3. Personal protective equipment (PPE)
When using the URS600CE, you must wear protective clothing at all times in accordance with the Health
and Safety legislation and as indicated on the Material Safety Data Sheet (MDSD) of the solvent you wish
to use. In any case, you should always wear the following protective clothing while using the URS600CE:
EN 1149-1,2,3 and EN 13034
certified antistatic clothing EN 166 certified safety glasses
EN 374-3 certified gloves EN 405 certified filter mask
At least S1 anti-static safety shoes
1.4. Scope
The URS600CE is designed for professional users to distill contaminated solvents for reuse. The cost
to transport waste sovlents off-site is reduced for a lower environmental impact and virgin solvent
purchases are reduced. This may include the distillation of solvents contaminated with paint, varnish or
ink residues, which are produced during cleaning processes used by lacquer/ink processing companies.
Place the machine in a well-ventilated and safe ATEX room without potential sources of ignition based on
the international standard EN 60079-10-1: 2009) "classification of hazardous areas with regard to risk
of explosions". Please note that recycled solvent in the container under the machine may itself release
vapour. This will affect the zoning in your safety plan. A URS600CE may only be placed in zone 1 and
zone 2.
1.5. Intended and unintended use
The URS600CE is solely and exclusively intended to make contaminated solvents reusable by distilling it
and thus separating all contaminants from the solvent. It is suitable for solvents with a boiling point below
200°C.
The URS600CE is only to be used in rooms that comply with ATEX requirements.
This machine recycles flammable and explosive mixtures, including varnish and paint solvent, acetone
and other paint thinners.
The URS600CE is not intended to recycle solvents with auto-ignition temperatures below 280°C.
* auto-ignition temperature: The temperature at which the liquid ignites itself, without the need for a flame.

USER MANUAL - URS600CE AND URS600CESS JULY 2019

1.6. Working principle
Contaminated solvent consists of the original solvent together with, when used, liquid and solid materials.
The recycling process separates the original solvent from the waste materials. During the process, the
tank which is filled with the contaminated solvent is heated by the heating element. When the URS600CE
is at temperature, the solvent boils. The vapour is fed through the vapour outlet fitting to the condenser,
where the clean solvent condenses back to a usable liquid. Waste materials in the contaminated solvent
boils at a temperature that is much higher than the boiling set temperature, the waste materials, therefore
do not vapourize and remain in the distillation tank. At the end of the process, these waste materials
which are collected in the liner bag, can be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Directive 153 (Directive 1999/92 / EC) about explosion protection. If you do not comply with these
obligations or you are not familiar with this Directive, you may not use the URS600CE. We advise you to
seek advice from an expert ATEX advisor.
Check the lid gasket for damage before each use. A damaged lid gasket leads to poor sealing and vapour
leakage, which is dangerous and wasteful.
3.2. Requirements for recyclable solvents
The contaminated solvent that is to be recycled must meet the following requirements:
• The boiling point of the contaminated solvent is below 200°C. The boiling point increases as the
contamination increases.
• The auto-ignition temperature* of the solvent is higher than 280°C.
• The solvent has recently been contaminated, stagnant solvent can be acidic. The solvent is suitable for
distillation.
Check the material Safety Data Sheet (SDS) from your solvent supplier beforehand for the flammability,
autoignition point, toxicity and boiling point of the solvent. If you do not have these at your disposal,
always ask for this from your supplier in advance.
6WARNING
Only recycle solvent mixtures with a self-ignition temperature above 280°C. For example,
any mixture containing nitro-cellulose should not be recycled because it may self-ignite
at 135°C.
6BE CAREFUL Do not recycle acidic or chlorinated solvents as they can damage the machine and
jeopardize safe operation.
* Auto-ignition temperature: The temperature at which the liquid ignites itself, without the need for a flame.
3.3. Place the liner bag in the Tank
Only use original the bag retainer ring and original liner bags for the URS600CE.
Please note! One extra liner bag is supplied as a spare part, but order new ones before they run out. To do this, use part number:
Liner bag - LB900C-10.
On delivery, the tank of the URS600CE comes equipped with an installed liner bag and a bag retainer ring. With the first use you
can proceed to section 3.4. The liner bag can only be used once. If the liner bag needs to be replaced, please follow the next
steps.
Open the safety cover of the URS600CE completely.
1. Unlock the tank lid clamp by lifting the clamping lever and open the lid.

3.4. Filling the URS600CE with contaminated solvent
1. Check whether the contaminated solvent meets the requirements as stated in section 3.2.
2. Carefully pour the contaminated solvent into the liner bag in the distillation tank.
Please note! The URS600CE has a maximum capacity of 20 litres, do not overfill. Fill the tank with at
least 6 litres of the solution.
3. Fill the tank to a maximum of 4-5 cm below the retainer ring, otherwise the contaminated solvent may

flow into the condenser and cause a blockage or stain and / or contaminate the distilled solvent.
Please note! When pouring in the contaminated solvent, ensure that everything goes into the liner bag
so that no contaminated solvent flows between the liner bag and the distillation tank.
6BE CAREFUL Avoid inhalation of vapour during the filling or cleaning of the distillation ttank.
4. Close the tank lid.
5. Lock the tank lid with the lid clamp.
Please note! Make sure that the tank lid closes properly to prevent leakages.
6. Close the safety cover.
7. Open the door on the front of the URS600CE.
8. Place the supplied HDPE receiving pail with a 3.0 cm diameter opening inside the cabinet of the URS600CE.
Please note! Always use the supplied HDPE pail with the 3.0 cm opening. The small opening limits
the possible formation of vapour to a minimum.
Please note! Do not recycle paint remover and cleaning solvents in the same receiving container.
Please note! The HDPE pail comes with a cap. Keep the cap in a safe location and return the cap to
the opening of the pail when transporting the solvent in the pail away from the URS600CE.
Figure 9. Place the HDPE receiving pail in the cabinet. Remove the
cap. Position the discharge tube in the 3.0 cm opening.
9. Place the empty HDPE receiving pail with the 3.0 cm opening so that the 13 mm (diameter) condenser outlet hose sticks into
the opening of the pail lid.
Please note! Make sure the condenser outlet hose is not kinked or blocked and that it extends at least 2.5 cm into the
opening.
10. Close the door on the front of the URS600CE.
You are now ready to set up the URS600CE.
