If the Peltier-tempered accessory is operated without heat exchanger or with the
heat exchanger switched off, cooling is electronically suppressed, but heating is
possible. At constant ambient temperature and with a set point setting of
approx. 5 °C above the sample chamber temperature the specified target
values can with increased control cycles be maintained with an accuracy of
0.1 – 0.2 °C. However, the control accuracies specified in the sections
"Technical Data" relate to operation with heat exchanger.
Configuring the start temperature at the temperature control unit
At the control unit set the start temperature to be activated after switching on
