3.3 Storage
Intermediate storage of the unit is possible in a closed and dry room. Observe the guidelines for tempo-
rary decommissioning (chap. 17.2).
Permissible ambient temperature range during storage:
•
If the steam humidifying system has NOT been emptied: +3 °C / 37.4 °F to +60 °C / 140 °F.
• After BINDER Service has emptied the steam humidifying system: -10 °C / 14 °F to +60 °C / 140 °F
With temperatures below +3 °C / 37.4 °F, water must be completely removed from the humidifying sys-
tem.
CAUTION
Storage below +3 °C / 37.4 °F with filled steam humidifying system.
Freezing in the steam generator.
Damage to the unit.

Contact BINDER Service before any transportation below +3 °C / 37.4 °F.
Permissible ambient humidity: max. 70 % r.H., non-condensing
CAUTION
Condensation by excess humidity.
Danger of corrosion on the housing after operating at humidity values > 70 % r.H.
for a long period.

Dry the appliance completely before shut-down:
• Set the humidity to 0 % r.H. and turn on humidity switch (4).
• Set the temperature set point to 60 °C / 140 °F for approx. 2 hours (Manual mode).
• Only then, shut down the unit at the main power switch (3) and close the tap of the
water supply.
When after storage in a cold location you transfer the unit to its warmer installation site, condensation
may form. Before start-up, wait at least one hour until the chamber has attained ambient temperature and
is completely dry.
In case of a prolonged temporal decommissioning: Leave the unit door open or remove the access port
plugs.
3.4 Location of installation and ambient conditions
Set up the constant climate chamber on a flat, even surface, and in a well-ventilated, dry location and
align it using a spirit level. The site of installation must be capable of supporting the unit’s weight (see
technical data, chap. 19.4). The chambers are designed for setting up inside a building (indoor use).
CAUTION
Danger of overheating.
Damage to the unit.
∅
Do NOT set up unit in non-ventilated recesses.
 Ensure sufficient ventilation for dispersal of the heat.
