1.6 Intended use
Refrigerated incubators KT are suitable for exact conditioning of harmless materials. Because of their
precise temperature accuracy these devices are especially useful for cultivation of microorganisms with a
narrow temperature optimum in a range of 4 °C / 39.2°F to 37 °C / 98.6°F. Main fields of application are
tests of long-term storage (e.g. at 4 °C / 39.2°F), refrigerated incubation between 20 °C / 68°F and 25 °C /
77°F and incubation at 37 °C / 98.6°F (also with additional introduction of heat) or with alternating
temperatures (e.g. 37 °C / 98.6°F and 4 °C / 39.2°F).
A mixture of any component of the charging material with air must NOT be explosive. The operating
temperature must lie below the flash point or below the sublimation point of the charging material.
Following the instructions in this operating manual and conducting regular maintenance work
(chap. 20.1) are part of the intended use.
The charging material shall not contain any corrosive ingredients that may damage the
machine components made of stainless steel, aluminum, and copper. Such ingredients
include in particular acids and halides. Any corrosive damage caused by such ingredients is
excluded from liability by BINDER GmbH.
WARNING: If customer should use a BINDER chamber running in non-supervised
continuous operation, we strongly recommend in case of inclusion of irrecoverable specimen
or samples to split such specimen or samples and store them in at least two chambers, if this
is feasible.
