If your Binder climate chamber isn't working, first check the power supply connection. Then, verify that the power supply voltage is correct. Ensure the main power switch is turned on. For MK/MKT 115, 240, and 720 models, also check and turn on the rear power switch. Inspect the chamber fuse and replace it if needed; if it fails again, contact BINDER service.
Why is there no or low refrigerating performance in my Binder climate chamber?
If your Binder climate chamber has low refrigerating performance, ensure the ambient temperature is not higher than 25 °C / 77°F and if it is, select a cooler place for installation. If the problem persists, contact BINDER service to check the compressor.
What to do if Binder climate chamber is heating permanently and not maintaining the set-point?
If your Binder climate chamber is constantly heating and not maintaining the set-point, calibrate and adjust the controller. If this doesn't resolve the issue, contact BINDER service.
What to do if Binder climate chamber doesn’t heat up when turned on and safety controller responds?
If your Binder climate chamber doesn’t heat up when turned on and the safety controller responds, acknowledge the alarm on the controller. Then, check the temperature setpoint setting. If it’s too low, select a suitable safety controller setpoint.
Why my Binder climate chamber doesn’t heat up?
If your Binder climate chamber isn’t heating up, contact BINDER service to check the heating element.
Why does my Binder climate chamber display “Preheat phase” and has no refrigerating performance?
If your Binder climate chamber shows “Preheat phase” and has no refrigerating performance, ensure the main power switch (and rear power switch for MK / MKT 115, 240, 720 models) was turned on at least one hour before operating the chamber.
What to do if acknowledging the alarm does not cancel the alarm state on Binder climate chamber?
If acknowledging the alarm on your Binder climate chamber does not cancel the alarm state, remove the cause of the alarm. If the alarm continues, contact BINDER service.
How to prevent condensation on samples in Binder climate chamber?
If you notice condensation on the samples in your Binder climate chamber, use the anti-condensation protection feature.
How to remove condensation or icing from the sides of the inner chamber of Binder climate chamber?
If you observe condensation or icing on the sides of the inner chamber of your Binder climate chamber, defrost the chamber.
