These units are built for use indoors at room temperatures between 15°C and 30°C (59°F and 86°F), at
no greater than 80% Relative Humidity (at 25°C / 77°F The ambient temperature should not change by
2°C (3.6°F) or more during operation.
Operating outside these conditions may affect the incubator temperature performance.
When selecting a location to install the unit, consider all environmental conditions that can adversely
impact its temperature performance. These include:
• Proximity to ovens, autoclaves, and any device that produces significant radiant heat
• Heating and cooling vents or other sources of fast-moving air currents
• High-traffic areas
• Direct sunlight
