3.2 Instrument placement
Place the water bath on a level, non-combustible surface. Ensure that the main
plug and the switch are easily accessible.
3.3 Electrical supply
•Check that the supply voltage marked on the serial number label, and the
type of mains plug, are correct for your mainssupply outlet, which must have
a ground connection.
•To disconnect the equipment from the mains supply, removethe mains plug
from the mains supply outlet.
4. CORRECT USE
4.1. Avoid operating the bath without water
•Avoid using your bath without water in the chamber. Dry-start will affect the
service life of the key component.
•The bath has an inbuilt protection mechanism known as dry start protection
which will detect this condition in most circumstances and prevent the bath
from continuing to heat. In this instance the bath will display “ ” and sound
an alarm. If the protection program fails to detect the dry-heating, built-in safety
temperature cut-out switch will cut off the heating to protect the water bath
when heated to a certain temperature.
Note:
The dry-start protection program is on by default. If you need to turn it off,
please refer to 5.8. Setting the dry-start protection alarm.The chamber internal
surface can become very hot if an
accidental dry start has occurred, even if the dry start cut out has operated.
Avoid touching the chamber until it has been left to cool.
4.2. Emptying the baths
Before emptying any bath, disconnect the device from the powersupply and pull
out the plug. Then allow the water temperature to fall to a safe level and take
reasonable precautions to preventaccidental spillage.
4.3. Using transparent lid
•When the setting temperature is above 60°C , use the lid to maintain proper
temperature control and ensure that the watertemperature reaches the set
point.
•The lid will also prevent excessive evaporation that requires
the bath to be filled more often and will save energy.
4.4. Using base tray
•Using the base tray can improve temperature control insidecontainers.
•Don’t put the containers or other items into the stainless-steel
