12.5 Water protected disconnectable internal socket (option BD, BF)
You can turn on or off the disconnectable water protected internal socket (CA3GD) for line voltage inside
the chamber by the switch in the triangular instrument panel, independent of the incubator operating or not.
Thus, devices operated inside the incubator can be started or stopped without any need to open the cham-
ber doors.
The internal socket provides a protective conductor, therefore it is possible to connect appliances with
protection class I.
The internal socket is splash proof.
IP system of protection 67 230 V 1N ~ 50-60 Hz. Charge max. 500 W
The maximum permitted operating temperature with this option is 90 °C / 194 °F.
DANGER
Electrical hazard and danger of damages when exceeding the permitted maximum
temperature.
Deadly electric shock. Damage to the internal socket.
∅ Do NOT exceed the temperature set-point of 90 °C / 194 °F.
Set the safety controller class 3.1 to 90 °C / 194 °F.
Heat emission of electrical devices connected inside the chamber may modify the tempera-
ture range.
NOTICE
Risk of short circuit caused by penetration of moisture into the socket.
Damage to the chamber.
Use the supplied plug only (IP protection type 67). Plug it in and tighten it by screwing
to secure contact.
If the socket is not used, close the screw lid and turn it to secure.
Controller shutdown by the standby button has no effect on the internal socket. The internal socket can
remain switched on even though controller is shut down.
DANGER
Electrical hazard due to accidentally switched on interior socket.
Deadly electric shock.
ALWAYS turn off the internal socket, when not in use, separately by the switch in the
triangular instrument panel.
12.6 Mostly gas-tight version (option for BF, FD, FED)
With this option the chamber is additionally sealed, so the loss when introducing gases is decreased. The
chamber is not completely gas-tight, so it is impossible to establish overpressure. The sealing diminishes
the release of vapors via the housing that may be set free from the charging material when heated. Carry-
ing-off via the regular evacuation duct, e.g. into a waste air installation, is likely to further reduce emissions.
The chamber is not completely gas-tight. Gases from inside the chamber can escape into
the surrounding atmosphere.
Observe the occupational exposure limit OEL for the released substance set by the national
authorities (formerly maximum permitted workplace concentration). Respect the relevant
regulations.
Any harmful gas that might escape has to be led out via good room ventilation or a suitable
exhaust system. Place the chamber, if necessary, below a gas vent.
