Greetings;
The 2011 Ed. of Prudent Practices suggests that:
General-purpose laboratory vacuum pumps should have a record of use to prevent cross-contamination or reactive chemical incompatibility problems.
Q1: Are you requiring this in your academic, governmental or private laboratories?Q2: If no, why not?Q3: If yes, how are you handling this.
Sincerely,Steve Rupkey, CIH
