 Repeat the increasing of the setpoint by 10 K until the maximum working temperature of the
thermal fluid used has been reached.
 Tap on the “Stop” touch button as soon as no more gas bubbles rise up at the thermal fluid's
maximum working temperature.
 Confirm the stop of thermoregulation by tapping on “OK”.
The correct selection will be displayed graphically. Thermoregulation is stopped immediately and
the pump continues to run for approx. 30 seconds. Wait until the pump stops. If tapping on “OK”
is not correct, this is displayed graphically for 2 seconds. Then the display will return to the
“Home” screen again. Try stopping the thermoregulation again. The de-gassing process is com-
plete.
4.3.1.3 Draining the bath thermostat
Hot or very cold thermal fluid
SERIOUS BURNS/FREEZING OF LIMBS
 Before draining, ensure that the thermal fluid has room temperature (20 °C).
 If, at this temperature, the thermal fluid is too viscous to be drained: Control the temperature
of the thermal fluid for a few minutes until the viscosity will allow drainage. Never control the
temperature of the thermal fluid when the >Drain valve< [4] is open.
 >Drain valve< [4] is closed by turning it clockwise (turn 90° right as far as it will go).
 Danger of burns when draining thermal fluids at temperatures above 20 °C.
 Wear your personal protective equipment when carrying out the drainage operation.
 Only drain with a suitable draining hose and container (these must be resistant to the thermal
fluid and temperature).
PROCEDURE
Baths with >Drain valve< [4]
 Remove the knurled screw at the >Drain< [8].
 Connect a suitable drain hose to the >Drain< [8].
 Place the other end of the hose in a suitable container.
 Open the >Drain valve< [4] by turning it counterclockwise (turn 90° left as far as it will go).
 The thermal fluid will flow from the external application via the bath vessel and the draining hose
into the container.
 Wait until the external application and the bath are empty.
 Open the connection >Circulation flow< [1].
 Open the connection >Circulation return< [2].
 Leave the temperature control unit open for a while for to allow it to dry out and the residue to
drain. Without screw caps with >Drain valve< [4] open.
 Close the >Drain valve< [4] by turning it clockwise (turn 90° right as far as it will go).
 Close the connection >Circulation flow< [1].
 Close the connection >Circulation return< [2].
 After drying out, remove the drain hose and re-fit the knurled screw to the >Drain< [8].
 The bath is now drained.
Baths without >Drain valve< [4]
 Have a suitable container ready to catch the thermal fluid.
 Open the knurled screw at the >Drain< [8]. As soon as you have opened the knurled screw, the
thermal fluid will flow from the external application over the bath and into the container.
 Wait until the external application and the bath are empty.
 Open the connection >Circulation flow< [1].
 Open the connection >Circulation return< [2].
 Leave the temperature control unit open for a while for to allow it to dry out and the residue to
drain (without screw caps).
 Close the connection >Circulation flow< [1].
 Close the connection >Circulation return< [2].
 Re-fit the knurled screw to the >Drain< [8].
 The bath is now drained.
