SECTION 12 – PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

Your CARON incubator is robustly designed to minimize performance problems.

However, regular maintenance is very important for continuous trouble free operation.

As a general rule, CARON recommends an annual calibration check of the temperature,

humidity (optional), and CO2 systems. CARON offers a full range of on-site calibration

and validation services. We also offer preventative maintenance contracts on our

equipment. Contact our customer service department for details or visit us on the web

.

Recommended Daily Maintenance Checks
