How to fix a Thermo Scientific SHKE6000 (4359) Laboratory Equipment shaker that will not heat?
If your Thermo Scientific shaker isn't heating, make sure the 'TEMP ON' lamp is lit. If it's not, push the 'TEMP ON' key.
What to do if my Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment shaker doesn’t operate?
If your Thermo Scientific shaker isn't operating, start by checking if the power cord is securely plugged in. If it is, verify that the power supply matches the requirements listed on the data label. Also, check the circuit breaker and fuse, resetting or replacing them if necessary. If the control panel lights are flashing, press any key. Finally, if the continual timer is flashing, reset it.
Why is the platform on my Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment not rotating correctly or has erratic speed?
If the platform on your Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment isn't rotating correctly or has an erratic speed, check the power to the motor and replace the motor if it's defective. Also, inspect the drive belt and replace it if it's worn, broken, or has slipped off the pulley.
What does error code E08 mean on my Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment?
Error code E08 on your Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment can indicate several issues. First, ensure the set point is not too close to the ambient temperature, adjusting it to at least 10 °C above ambient if you have an incubated model. Check the cooling system for proper operation. Inspect the connections on the PC1415X3 AC board. Consider replacing the PC1415X3 AC board if there's a failure in the cooling control circuit. Also, verify that the door is properly sealed by checking the rubber door gasket.
What does E06 error mean on Thermo Scientific SHKE6000 (4359) and how to fix it?
The E06 error on your Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment indicates that the OTP RTD temperature is above the OTP potentiometer setting. You can try increasing the OTP potentiometer setting or reducing the chamber set point. Also, ensure that the OTP RTD is properly connected. If the issue persists, there might be a failure in the heating circuit on the AC board, requiring replacement of the PC1415X3 AC board.
What to do if my Thermo Scientific SHKE6000 (4359) Laboratory Equipment displays ‘bAL’?
If your Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment displays 'bAL', it means the unit is vibrating, producing excessive noise, and is not leveled properly. Also, it can mean that the shaking platform load is too large, so reduce the load placed on the shaker platform.
What does error code E02 mean on my Thermo Scientific SHKE6000 (4359)?
Error code E02 on your Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment indicates a failure in the element, which requires replacing the element. It could also mean the element SSR is defective, needing replacement. Check the connections on the PC1415X3 AC board to ensure they are properly connected. If the heating circuit on the AC board has failed, replace the PC1415X3 AC board.
What does error E12 on Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment mean?
Error E12 on your Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment indicates a locked rotor condition. You should try to free the locked rotor. If that doesn't work, it could indicate a failure in the motor, requiring replacement. Alternatively, there might be a failure in the motor control circuit, necessitating replacement of the PC1415X1 control board.
What does error code E01 mean on my Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment?
Error code E01 on your Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment indicates that the chamber RTDs are not connected, so ensure proper connection of the RTD. It could also mean the RTD is open, requiring replacement of TC1415X1. If neither of these resolves the issue, the control board may be defective, requiring replacement of the PC1415X1 control board.
What does error E13 mean on Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment and how can I resolve it?
Error E13 on your Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment can be caused by a shaker pan adjusted incorrectly, so readjust the 9 screws that secure the pan. Another cause can be obstruction between shaking platform and chamber wall, so remove any obstruction.
