WARNING
There is a risk that the sample temperature control will
be faulty
.
There is a risk that the temperature control of micro-
biological samples is not correct, which could result in
a misinterpretation of the test results or the destruc-
tion of the samples.
− Have the incubator maintained and calibrated
Chapter 7.5 ‘Maintenance’ on page 124
.
− Observe the information in these instructions con-
cer
ning the effect of the heat generation of addi-
tional devices which are operated in the incubator.
− Monitor the temperature process ow
.
− A closed slide-in module must always be inserted
at the bottommost position.
− Connect a signal transducer to the potential-free
alarm contact in or
der to also be informed of fault
conditions outside of the viewing range of the
incubator.
− Do not place any microbiological samples at the
bottom of the incubator
. Use the slide-in modules.
− Place the microbiological sample material within
the dened utilized space.
− Observe the permissible ambient conditions.
− Make sure the incubator is not exposed to direct
sunlight.
− Keep the incubator door shut when you are not
inserting or r
emoving samples.
− Check the samples after a power failure to make
sur
e they are still usable.
NOTICE
There is a risk of the interior overheating in the event
of a power failur
e.
If the external devices are operated on a power circuit
other than the incubator, these can heat up the inte-
rior uncontrollably.
− Switch off the devices set up in the incubator in
the event of a power failur
e, if these are still
switched on.
NOTICE
Temperature control, as described in the technical
data, is only possible if the permissible ambient tem-
peratur
e range is complied with.
