Stacking two Units
The 6014 & 6016 are designed to allow two units to be stacked. When units are stacked
they must be bolted together for safety. A stacking adaptor kit, STCK301 with
instructions is available through CARON customer service.
Leveling the Unit
Place a level on the middle shelf of the incubator. Adjust the cabinet leveling feet so the
shelf is level. Units equipped with optional casters (CSTR101) can be leveled by
adjusting the height of the lock nut on the caster. Adjust the feet or casters
appropriately until the unit sits level left to right and front to back.
Connecting the Drain Line
The incubators control humidity by injecting water only as needed. This eliminates
standing water which is a primary source of contamination and corrosion. There are
several ways to take advantage of this feature. The simplest method is to connect the
drain fitting and tubing supplied with the incubator to a local floor drain. During
operation, any water that is not evaporated inside the cabinet will be sent to the cabinet
drain to avoid standing water, minimizing the risk of contamination and corrosion.
The incubator drain connection is located in the bottom middle of the back of the
incubator
. 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.
When using a pressurized water source, failure
to connect the unit to a drain could result in
facility flooding.
Failure to install the stacking adaptor kit can
result in the top unit falling causing serious
injury or death.
