13.5 Disposal of the chamber in non-member states of the EU
NOTICE
Danger of violation against existing law if not disposed of properly.
Failure to comply with applicable law. Alteration of the environment.
For final decommissioning and disposal of the chamber, please contact BINDER Ser-
vice.
Follow the statutory regulations for appropriate, environmentally friendly disposal.
14. Technical description
14.1 Factory calibration and adjustment
This chamber was calibrated and adjusted in the factory. Calibration and adjustment were performed using
standardized test instructions, according to the QM DIN EN ISO 9001 system applied by BINDER (certified
since December 1996 by TÜV CERT). All test equipment used is subject to the administration of measure-
ment and test equipment that is also constituent part of the BINDER QM DIN EN ISO 9001 systems. They
are controlled and calibrated to a DKD-Standard at regular intervals.
Repeated calibrations are recommended in periods of 12 months.
14.2 Definition of usable volume
The usable volume illustrated below is calculated as follows:
A, B, C = Internal dimensions (W, H, D)
a, b, c = Wall clearances
a = 0.1 x A
b = 0.1x B
c = 0.1 x C
V
USE
= (A - 2a) x (B - 2b) x (C - 2c)
Figure 8: Determination of the useable volume
The technical data refers to the defined usable volume.
Do NOT place samples outside this usable volume.
Do NOT load this volume by more than half to enable sufficient airflow inside the chamber.
Do NOT divide the usable volume into separate parts with large area samples.
Do NOT place samples too close to each other in order to permit circulation between them
and thus obtain a homogenous distribution of temperature.
14.3 Over current protection
The chambers are protected by one (UL chambers) or two miniature fuses against over current, accessible
from the outside. The miniature fuses are located at the rear of the chamber above the power cable con-
nection. Each fuse holder is equipped with a fuse clip 5mm x 20 mm (cUL-Version 6,3x32 mm). A fuse may
be replaced only with a substitute of the same ratings. Refer to the technical data of the respective device
type.
