This document serves as an operation manual and basic guide for the ESPEC bench-top type temperature (and humidity) chamber, models SH/SU. It provides essential information for safe and correct use, covering operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
The ESPEC bench-top type temperature (and humidity) chamber is designed for testing materials under controlled temperature and, for SH models, humidity conditions. It allows users to subject specimens to specific environmental parameters to evaluate their performance and durability. The chamber is intended for use by experienced engineers or trained personnel who understand its purpose, operation, maintenance, and associated risks.
The manual outlines various models with specific technical specifications, primarily related to temperature range and capacity.
Model Code Interpretation: The model code provides key specifications:
2: -20°C4: -40°C6: -60°C2: 22.5L6: 64L5°C/min (for specific models like S-24-2-5).Temperature-Humidity Control Range (SH only): The SH models offer a standard temperature and humidity range, with temperature control from 15°C to 85°C and relative humidity up to 95%rh.
Power Supply: The chambers are available in various voltage configurations, including 100V, 200V, 220V, 230V AC, and 115V AC, depending on the model and region.
The manual details several features for operating the chamber:
Safety Indications: The document emphasizes safety with clear indications:
Restricted Use: The chamber should only be operated by experienced engineers or persons trained in its proper usage, operation, daily maintenance, and inspection, and who can foresee and prevent risks from common hazards like electricity.
Specimen Handling:
Door Operations: Precautions are provided for opening and closing the door, especially during high-temperature or high-humidity operations, to avoid steam burns. Users are cautioned against giving shock or strong pressure to the viewing window and inner glass door.
Safety Devices: The manual highlights the importance of correctly setting and checking the safety device for overheat protection before operation.
External Connections:
Remote Operation: When operating remotely, users must confirm safety in and around the test area to prevent accidents.
Environmental Labeling: ESPEC's "GREEN PRODUCT Label" signifies eco-friendly design, with certified products achieving 15% or more energy saving compared to former models under specified operation patterns.
Accessories and Spare Parts: The chamber comes with various accessories and spare parts, including:
The manual provides detailed instructions for inspection and maintenance to ensure the longevity and safe operation of the chamber.
Regular Inspections:
Cleaning and Maintenance:
Preparations for Extended Non-Use: Guidance is provided on preparing the chamber for periods of extended non-use.
Troubleshooting and Repairs:
Disposal: Instructions for safe disposal of the chamber, including a warning that two people should work together to remove and dispose of the door to prevent injury or trapping.
Product Safety Labels: Information on purchasing replacement product safety labels if they become damaged, lost, or illegible.
