3. OPERATION
3.1 Position the shelves within the work chamber.
3.2 Place a suitable thermometer into the top tubular, so that the thermometer bulb is about
two inches into the chamber.
3.3 Switch 'ON' the mains switch, indicated by the green lamp.
3.4 Turn the overheat thermostat dial (red cap) to approximately 10°C above the desired
working temperature (5°C above the desired working temperature for incubators).
3.5 Set the control thermostat dial (white cap) to the desired working temperature and allow
the unit to heat up and maintain a steady state before making any adjustments.
3.6 If a closer overheat thermostat setting is required, at the working temperature turn the
overheat downscale until its indicator lamp is ON. Advance the knob very slowly upscale to
the point at which the indicator lamp is just extinguished.
3.7 If the chamber temperature rises above the overheat set temperature, the red lamp will be
illuminated and the heat control circuit will be disabled. Control will switch back the main
temperature control once the chamber temperature falls below the overheat set
temperature. If the red lamp will not go out or keeps coming on there may be a problem
with the unit.
In this case please consult your supplier.
NOTE: The dials may be locked using the Allen key provided. Do not remove
the dial lock as this forms part of the scale end stop
