Why is my PolyScience MX07R-20 unit not cooling?
- D
  Derek McgeeAug 16, 2025
  Your PolyScience Laboratory Equipment might not be cooling because of dust on the air filter or condenser, blocked air ventilation screens, a temperature set point that is too high, excessive heat load, high ambient air temperature (over 35°C / 95°F), or incorrect line voltage. Clean the air filter or condenser, remove any blockages, lower the temperature set point, ensure the heat load is within the bath's capacity, and decrease the ambient air temperature. Also, check and correct the voltage as required.

Why is my PolyScience MX07R-20 not running (digital display is blank)?
- T
  Terri AriasAug 19, 2025
  Your PolyScience Laboratory Equipment might not be running because there is no power to the unit, the electrical cord between the control head and refrigeration power module is loose or unplugged (refrigerated units only), or the power switch/circuit breaker is in the OFF position. Ensure the electrical cord is secure and connected to a working outlet. Also, make sure the power switch/circuit breaker is in the ON position.

Why is my PolyScience MX07R-20 not heating up?
- C
  Catherine WoodsAug 22, 2025
  Your PolyScience Laboratory Equipment may not be heating because there is not enough fluid in the reservoir, the temperature set point is too low, or the safety set temperature is too low. Add fluid to the reservoir, increase the temperature set point, and increase the safety set temperature.

What to do if my PolyScience MX07R-20 has insufficient cooling?
- M
  Mary ByrdAug 26, 2025
  If your PolyScience Laboratory Equipment has insufficient cooling, it could be due to dust buildup on the air filter or condenser, blocked air ventilation screens, a temperature set point that's too high, excessive heat load, an ambient air temperature that's too high (above 35°C / 95°F), or low or high line voltage. Clean the air filter and/or condenser, remove any blockages, decrease the temperature set point, ensure the heat load doesn't exceed the bath's capacity, and lower the ambient air temperature. Check and correct line voltage as needed.

What to do if my PolyScience MX07R-20 has insufficient heating?
- J
  Julia TaylorAug 28, 2025
  If your PolyScience Laboratory Equipment has insufficient heating, refer to the insufficient circulation solutions. Also, check and correct the line voltage as required. Increase the ambient temperature or relocate the unit. Check for heat loss from external tanks and hoses, and also check for vapor/heat loss from the internal reservoir.

How to fix unstable temperature in PolyScience MX07R-20?
- L
  Laurie JensenAug 31, 2025
  To fix an unstable temperature in your PolyScience Laboratory Equipment, check the pump flow and operation, and clean any debris or mineral buildup on the pump, heater, or temperature sensor as required. The instability might be caused by insufficient circulation or debris/mineral buildup.

Why can't my PolyScience Laboratory Equipment achieve low-end extreme temperatures?
- W
  welchmatthewSep 3, 2025
  Your PolyScience Laboratory Equipment might not be reaching low-end extreme temperatures because the pump speed is too high, the bath fluid is incorrect, there's insufficient insulation on external fluid lines, the ambient air temperature is too high (above 35°C / 95°F), line voltage is incorrect, dust has built up on the air filter or condenser, air ventilation screens are blocked, or there's excessive heat load. Reduce the pump speed, verify the fluid is suitable for the required temperature, ensure external fluid lines are properly insulated, lower the ambient air temperature, check and correct the voltage, clean the air filter or condenser, remove blockages, and ensure the heat load is within the bath's capacity.

What to do if my PolyScience MX07R-20 is not circulating fluid?
- P
  Patrick MurilloSep 6, 2025
  If your PolyScience Laboratory Equipment is not circulating fluid, it may be due to insufficient fluid in the reservoir or a jammed pump impeller. Add fluid to the reservoir. Inspect the pump and remove any debris as needed.

Why is STANDBY appearing on the digital display of my PolyScience MX07R-20?
- J
  Jasmine GreenSep 9, 2025
  If 'STANDBY' is appearing on the digital display of your PolyScience Laboratory Equipment, it means the unit is in Standby mode. Press the Power Key on the front panel to exit Standby mode.

What causes insufficient circulation in PolyScience Laboratory Equipment?
- W
  William RodriguezSep 12, 2025
  Insufficient circulation in your PolyScience Laboratory Equipment can be caused by fluid viscosity being too high, external tubing diameter being too small, or low line voltage. Replace the fluid with a lower viscosity bath fluid, use larger diameter tubing, and check and correct the line voltage as required.
