5.1. Installation
 Place the unit on an even surface on a pad made of non-flammable
material.
 Pump motor and electronics produce intrinsic heat that is dissipated
via the venting openings! Never cover these openings!
 Do not set up the unit in the immediate vicinity of heat sources and
do not expose to sun light
The bath cover (1) is mounted on the bath tank with 4 captive screws (2).
Required tool: SW3 hexagonal socket wrench with ball-shaped head
The circulating pump transports the
bath fluid to the temperature
chamber (4) at the bottom (3). The
overflow on top of the chamber
ensures a constant fluid level during
operation.
The bath cover (5) provides 6
measuring places (6) that can be
fitted with different Viton
®
sleeves..

5.2. Bath fluids
Caution:
Carefully read the safety data sheet of the bath fluid used, particularly with regard to
the fire point!
If a bath fluid with a fire point of
65 °C is used, only supervised operation is possible.
Water: The quality of water depends on local conditions.
 Due to the high concentration of lime, hard water is not suitable for temperature
control because it leads to calcification in the bath.
 Ferrous water can cause corrosion - even on stainless steel.
 Chloric water can cause pitting corrosion.
 Distilled and deionized water is unsuitable. Their special properties cause
corrosion in the bath, even in stainless steel.
