Consider installing one dedicated upstream circuit breaker per incubator to avoid multiple
device failures in case of an electrical fault.
Intermediate Storage
When the incubator is placed in intermediate storage, make sure that the ambient temperature is
between 20 °C to 60 °C (68 °F to 140 °F) and the maximum relative humidity does not exceed
90%, non-condensing.
Room Ventilation
Heat dissipating from the incubator during continuous operation may cause a change in the room
climate.
Therefore, the incubator must only be installed in rooms with sufficient ventilation.
Do not install the incubator in room recesses without ventilation.
When several devices are to be placed in the same room, additional ventilation may have to
be provided as necessary.
To avoid any impact of the heat dissipated by the incubator on the ambient climate the room
must be vented by means of a laboratory-grade ventilation system that complies with
applicable local and national health and safety regulations and has sufficient capacity.
If excessive temperatures tend to occur in the operating room, be sure to provide a thermal
protection means that cuts out the power supply to mitigate the impact of over-temperature
scenarios.
Contamination hazard
Do not place the incubator directly on the lab floor, but mount it on the floor stand or on
a lab work surface (option; to be ordered separately). Contaminants, such as bacteria,
viruses, fungi, prions, and other biological substances may use the open door to
migrate easily from the floor into the incubator’s work space.
