Ultimate-cell Stackable Shaking Incubator V2017.2
34
a maximum of 80%RH can be achieved. The setpoint of humidity must be reduced to
avoid further formation of condensation.
The occurrence of condensation is indicating that the maximum humidity is reached,
the relative humidity setpoint must be reduced.
The water tank is supplied with the equipment. You can hang it on the side of the unit.
Alternatively, you can use your own water tank.
Only use recommended types of water for humidification. Using tap water for hu-
midification, may cause lime scale problem inside the system and the chamber.
6.7 Operating the CO2 System
The CO
2
system features NDIR CO
2
sensor for concentration measurements, and a
clear PVC curtain for minimizing the CO
2
gas escaping during door openings. The
curtain has Velcro hook and loop fasteners on the upper front edge of the chamber to
attach the curtain, and multi slits to facilitate handling of the shaking tray.
The CO
2
system only operates under Fixed Value control mode. It will automatically
switch off when the control mode is switched to Programmable mode.
Under Fixed Value control mode, the CO
2
concentration level can be set via the 6.4
Operating Temperature and Speed System --Fixed Value Mode
The accuracy of CO2 concentration value is 0.1%RH.
To prevent excessive consumption of CO2 gas, the drain holes, sample port, front
door must keep closed.
6.8 Setting Defrosting Cycle
This unit is equipped with automatic defrosting function. When the incubator is set to
run at lower temperature set point, proper settings of defrosting cycle will optimize the
performance in long term operation.
When the defrosting cycle is running, the circulating fan stops running, and control
system activate the defrosting cycle.
