INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing a SHEL LAB shaking incubator. We know you have many choices in today’s

competitive marketplace when it comes to constant temperature equipment. We appreciate you choosing

ours. We stand behind our products and will be here if you need us.

READ THIS MANUAL

Failure to follow the guidelines and instructions in this user manual may create a protection

impairment by disabling or interfering with the unit safety features. This can result in injury or death.

Before using the unit, read the manual in its entirety to understand how to install, operate, and

maintain the unit in a safe manner. Ensure all operators are given appropriate training before the unit

begins service.

Keep this manual available for use by all operators.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS

Follow basic safety precautions, including all national laws, regulations, and local ordinances in your

area regarding the use of this unit. If you have any questions about local requirements, please

contact the appropriate agencies.

SOPs

Because of the range of potential applications this unit can be used for, the operator or their

supervisors must draw up a site-specific standard operating procedure (SOP) covering each

application and associated safety guidelines. This SOP must be written and available to all operators

in a language they understand.

Intended Applications and Locations

SSI incubators are intended for constant temperature, non-humidified microbiological shaking

incubation applications in professional, industrial, and educational environments. These units are not

intended for use at hazardous or household locations.

Power

Your unit and its recommended accessories are designed and tested to meet strict safety

requirements.

•The unit is designed to connect to a power source using the specific power cord type

shipped with the unit.

•Always plug the unit power cord into a protective earth grounded electrical outlet

conforming to national and local electrical codes. If the unit is not grounded properly, parts

such as knobs and controls can conduct electricity and cause serious injury.

•Do not bend the power cord excessively, step on it, or place heavy objects on it.

•A damaged cord can be a shock or fire hazard. Never use a power cord if it is damaged or

altered in any way.

•Use only approved accessories. Do not modify system components. Any alterations or

modifications to your unit not explicitly authorized by the manufacturer can be dangerous

and will void your warranty.

INTRODUCTION

REQUIRED ACCESSORIES

Flask clamps, stationary tube racks, or plate clamps are required to secure samples to the shaking

platform. Clamps and racks must be purchased separately.

The manufacturer offers for sale several types of shaker accessories compatible with this incubator

model. See page 50 for ordering information.

INTRODUCTION

REFERENCE SENSOR DEVICE

Must be purchased separately

A reference sensor device is required for calibrating the unit temperature display.

Reference devices must meet the following standards:

•Accurate to at least 0.1°C

The device should be regularly calibrated, preferably by a third party.

Temperature Probes

Use a digital device with wire thermocouple probes that can be introduced into the unit chamber

through the lid space. Select thermocouples suitable for the application temperature you will be

calibrating at.

Why Probes?

Reference readings taken outside the chamber using wire temperature probes avoid chamber lid

openings. Openings disrupt the chamber temperature. Each disruption requires a minimum 1-hour wait

to allow the atmosphere to re-stabilize before continuing.

No Alcohol or Mercury Thermometers

Alcohol thermometers do not have sufficient accuracy to conduct accurate temperature calibrations.

Never place a mercury thermometer in the unit chamber. Always use thermocouple probes.
