INSTALLATION
Local city, county, or other ordinances may govern the use of this equipment. If you have any questions about local
requirements, please contact the appropriate local agency. Installation may be performed by the end user. It is
unnecessary for this unit to be installed by a technician.
Under normal circumstances this unit is intended for use indoors, at room temperatures between 18

and 28

C, at no
greater than 80% Relative Humidity ( at 25

C ) and with a supply voltage that does not vary by more than 10%.
Customer service should be contacted for operating conditions outside of these limits.
This unit should remain upright for 24 hours prior to operating. This will allow the oil to settle in the compressor.
2.5 Power Source: See the incubator's serial/data plate for the voltage, cycle, phase and
ampere requirements. VOLTAGE SHOULD NOT VARY MORE THAN 10% FROM THE
DATA PLATE RATING. These units are intended for 50/60 Hz application. Electrical
supply to the unit must conform to all national and local electrical codes. A separate circuit
is recommended to avoid overloading or failure of other equipment on the same circuit.
2.6 Location: When selecting a site for the incubator, consider all conditions which may
affect performance, such as extreme heat from steam radiators, stoves, ovens,
autoclaves, etc. Avoid direct sun, fast-moving air currents, heating/cooling ducts, and high
traffic areas. To ensure air circulation around the unit allow a minimum of 20cm between
incubator and any walls or partitions which might obstruct free air flow.
2.7 Lifting / Handling: These units are heavy and care should be taken to use appropriate
lifting devices that are sufficiently rated for these loads. Units should only be lifted from
their bottom surfaces. Doors, handles and knobs are not adequate for lifting or
stabilization. The unit should be completely restrained from tipping during lifting or
transport. All moving parts, such as shelves and trays should be removed and doors need
to be positively locked in the closed position during transfer to prevent shifting and
damage.
2.8 Leveling: The unit must sit level and solidly. Turn the leveling feet counterclockwise to
raise level. If the unit must be moved, turn the leveling feet in all the way to prevent
bending or damage.
2.9 Cleaning: The incubator's interior was cleaned at the factory, but not sterilizied. Remove
all interior parts, including shelves and clean thoroughly with a disinfectant that is
appropriate for your application. Regular periodic cleaning is required. Special care
should be taken when cleaning around sensing heads to prevent damage. DO NOT USE
chlorine based bleaches as this may damage the incubator interior. DO NOT USE spray
cleaners that might leak through cracks and openings and get on electrical components,
or that may contain solvents that will harm coatings.
WARNING: Never clean the unit with alcohol or flammable cleaners with the unit connected to
the electrical supply. Always disconnect the unit from the electrical service when cleaning and
assure all volatile or flammable cleaners are evaporated and dry before reattaching the unit to the
power supply.
