How to fix SciQuip Laboratory Equipment with no display on power on?
- A
  Alexander GibsonAug 17, 2025
  If your SciQuip Laboratory Equipment isn't displaying anything after you've turned it on, there are several things to check: * Ensure the power supply is properly connected and has voltage. * Make sure the plug is firmly inserted into the socket. * Verify that the power switch on the side cooling compartment is turned on. * Inspect the fuse and replace it with a new one of the same specification if it's broken. If none of these steps work, the main power board system may be malfunctioning, and you should contact your distributor for repair service.

  Sarah CrawfordAug 20, 2025
  If the shaking platform of your SciQuip Laboratory Equipment is unstable, it might be due to several reasons: * An object inside the chamber may be causing an imbalance. If this is the case, remove the object and clean the chamber. * The equipment might not be placed horizontally. Try adjusting the left-back foot leveler to properly install the equipment. If the issue persists, there may be a malfunction with the control circuit, requiring you to notify the distributor for repair service.

  If the shaking platform of your SciQuip Laboratory Equipment isn't working, check the following: * Ensure that the door is firmly closed, as the door switch might not be making contact. * Inspect the bottom of the platform for any objects that may be blocking it. If there are any obstructions, remove the platform, clear the objects, and clean the inside. If the issue continues, the belt may be broken, or there could be a malfunction with the control circuit. In either case, contact the distributor for assistance.

  If the actual temperature of your SciQuip Laboratory Equipment is lower than the set point and the low-temperature alarm is activated, consider the following: * The unit might still be in the process of reaching the required temperature, so allow some time for it to stabilize. * The circulation of cold air may be excessive. Try closing part of the ventilation opening. If the problem persists, the circulating fan may be broken, or the heater may not be working. In either of these cases, it's best to notify the distributor for repair.
