9. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF THE DEVICE
Maintenance (cleaning of the housing and the chamber) should be carried out at least once a week (depending
on the environmental conditions in the workplace).
To clean products made of stainless steel (INOX) we recommend using cleaning solution dedicated particularly
to stainless steel material. It preserves the steel surface from permanent stains and retains aesthetic appear-
ance of the product.
INOX products are made of stainless steel, when used in standard laboratory conditions they do not rust.
However it is possible that stains (which may look like rust) form on the steel surface (e.g. due to the kind of
samples that are incubated in the chamber). In such case we recommend using cleaning solution (to clean the
stains) which is dedicated to this particular application, e.g. Pelox.
9.1. Exterior cleaning
Clean the housing of the unit at least once a week or even more often depending on the conditions in
the place the unit works.
The housing and door should be cleaned with caution, using a soft cloth dampened with water.
Only mild cleaning products should be used to clean the device.
Unit with cooling system: laboratory refrigerators (CHL), thermostatic cabinet (ST), cooled
Incubator (IL).
Clean the compressor and the evaporator with a vacuum cleaner, dry cloth or a brush at least once
a month! The compressor and the evaporator are located in the upper part of the unit (models:500,
700, 1200, 1450) or bottom part (models:53, 115, 240, 350, 400, 750).
Before cleaning the device, it needs to be disconnected from the electrical supply!
When cleaning stainless steel products with dedicated cleaning solution, one should pay attention
to the suggestions and recommendations given in the user manual (or in the safety data sheet)
of the cleaning solution.
