Leveling the Unit
Place a level on the middle shelf of the incubator. Adjust the feet until the unit sits level
left to right and front to back. Models 6020, 6021, 6022, 6023 & 6025 have the leveling
feet built into the caster. Even if the unit is level without adjustment, the leveling feet
should still be lowered to avoid the cabinet moving while opening and closing the outer
door & prevent a flat spot from forming on the casters.
Connecting the Drain Line
The chamber drain connection is located in the bottom middle of the back of the
chamber. A 3/8” NPT fitting and tubing are supplied in the unit parts kit. Thread the
fitting into the drain connection and slide the tubing into the drain connection. Pull on
the tubing after installation to make sure it is tight. Route the drain tubing to a local
floor drain.
If a local floor drain is not available, a variety of accessories are available through
CARON customer service. These accessories can also be viewed at
For non-humidified chambers operated above 15°C, a drain is not needed. Install the
3/8” plug into the drain connection.
Do not have multiple loaded shelves out
simultaneously or the chamber may tip.
When using a pressurized water source, failure
to connect the unit to a drain could result in
facility flooding.
The drain line relies on gravity to remove water
from the chamber. The drain line must remain
below the chamber to drain properly. Kinks or
elevations in the drain line above the cabinet
drain will not allow the chamber to drain.
