Water supply
Level gauge (5)
indicates the water level.
The water level should be in the range between "min and max". This range is equivalent
to a volume of 2.2 ltr. If the water supply falls below the "min." level, a reserve of 0.5 ltr. is
still available.
Filling the water reservoir
For humidification of the incubator, water of the following quality must be used:
demineralised water that has been sterilised.
or
sterile water that has been demineralised. Distilled or autoclaved water is suitable.
Fill the canister with the water and leave the screw cap off. Hang the canister on the bracket lo-
cated on the upper left of the incubator. (fig 1) Connect the tubing connector (fig 1) into the quick
fit coupling, the water reservoir will be filled under the force of gravity.
Should the water not flow, there may be an airlock in the tube, in which case press on the tube
bulb to move the air through.
Attention:
If the reservoir is overfilled the excess water any will flow from the overflow pipe.
After filling place the filling canister on the floor and allow water in the filling tube to return to the
canister before removing the quick fit connection. (fig 2)
Attention:
After filling completely empty and dry the filling canister, store the canister dry to prevent the
formation of contamination.
