      Jennifer HowardAug 27, 2025
      If your Binder Laboratory Equipment chamber isn’t heating up, it could be due to a defective Pt 100 sensor, in which case you should contact BINDER service. It could also be due to a defective heating element or a defective semiconductor relay.

    • A
      Andrea AdamsAug 26, 2025
      If the chamber of your Binder Laboratory Equipment is heating permanently and the set-point is not maintained, it could be due to a defective controller, in which case you should contact BINDER service. Alternatively, the controller might not be well adjusted, or the adjustment interval may have been exceeded. In this case, calibrate and adjust the controller.
