gauze or collection of dirt may block the flow of the pump and circulation,
resulting in degradation of performance and overheating!
The flow rate and direction of the circulating return may also influence the
performance and safety of the equipment! Reduced flow may produce an uneven
circulating of the liquid and temperature distribution, while strong
circulating may lead to overflow or splash of the liquid! Flow adaptor is used
for proper adjustment of the flow rate and direction.
Caution, Hazard of liquid spillage if the flow adaptor is missing or
inappropriately adjusted!
The independent safety temperature limiter (STB) is important for safety. The
STB is incorporated for protection against hazard of run-dry while heating is
in progress. The STB resets automatically once temperature resumes to below
designated limit value if gentle and slow triggering happens. However the
reset of the STB is not possible if sudden and rapid temperature rising occurs
while continuous heating without any liquid.
Regular check of the STB is requirement for safety. Refer to 4.2 for detailed

3.10 Terminate operating**
- Press for more than 2 seconds. The circulating pump (forced convection models only) and the heater stop simultaneously.
- Disconnect the power by turning off the power switch, removing the power plug, or disengaging the residual current circuit breaker (RCD).
Pull the temperature of the heat transfer liquid as close as possible to
the ambient before attempting to shut down the equipment, except when
operations as such are prohibited for the specimen! Warning, Hazards of burn
and possible electric shock resultant from unattended hot temperature or
condensing and degraded dielectric strength!
Caution: Risk of freezing hazard!
When water is employed as heat transfer liquid, and when intended for
standstill for long period and when experiencing low ambient is possible, run
the equipment at operating temperature close to ambient for at least 1hr.
Drain the bath containing water, and remove the water completely. Disconnect
the equipment and remove the mains plug from power source.
**** No draining of the heat transfer liquid with potential of chemical or
biological hazard! Collect and identify the heat transfer liquid for future
use! Consult manufacturer or supplier of the liquid for proper disposal!
3.11 Unit of temperature
- The default unit for temperature measurements and setting is degree centigrade.
- The unit of temperature may be changed to Fahrenheit or Centigrade as desired. Refer to Table and item No. 4, use cF and similar steps for procedures.
Chapter 4 Maintenance
4.1 Regular maintenance
- Clean the bath interior and exterior of the equipment periodically to keep the equipment clean;
- Check fixing screws periodically, and if any loose, fix it.
** Remove the plug from power line before cleaning. Use soft dry tissue to
clean the bath interior and avoid any splashing or washing!
If any water or other conductive material fall into the equipment containing
electric and/or electronic parts and components, disconnect the power
immediately. Power on only after water or foreign material is completely
evaporated or removed.
4.2 Regular check of the STB**
Regular check of the STB is required for safe operation. Intervals of six
months for normal use, or the first time powering up after repairing or
standstill for long period, are recommended for regular check of the
functionality. Check the STB as follows:
- Fill the tank with water to level just over the highest point of the heating coil;
- Set the temperature at 10°C above the ambient and/or the liquid, so that it keeps heating, LED is continuously on;
- Initiate the temperature control as for normal use, i.e. the pump is circulating (forced convection models only) and heating is in full capacity;
- Drain the bath so that the heater and the STB are exposed to the air completely. Make sure no liquid spraying out from the circulating return, dripping from the drain device on the bench or floor;
- The liquid evaporates immediately from hot surface of the heater. Keep running dry for a couple of seconds until the Stb warning is displayed. Caution, Never run dry for more than 90s!
- Close the drain device, and fill the tank with water. The STB resets automatically once temperature resumes to below designated limit value.
Caution, Risk of burn hazard and liquid spillage!
Do not touch hot surface of the heater! Keep away from evaporating hot steam!
Use protective gloves or glasses if necessary!
Never run dry for more than 90s! Overheating of the coil may damage the heater
or degrade its insulation strength!
**** The first time powering up after repairing or standstill for long
period, or at 6 months intervals under normal use, check the functionality of
the safety temperature limiter (STB)!
4.3 Checking and replacing the fuse
With the mains plug connected and power switch in “on” position and if no LED
and digits display, check the fuse first. If any doubt that checking and
replacing fuse is necessary, use a fuse with the same size and capacity as
rated and do as follows:
- Make sure the mains plug has been removed;
- Loosen the screws for the bottom cover and remove the bottom cover. Check or replace the fuse (81) as shown in Fig 5;
- Replace the cover and fasten the screws.
Do not disassemble or exchange assembly parts and electric circuits! Hazard of
possible electric shock!
Except for replacing the fuse, there is no other part necessary for customer
to disassemble or repair. If repairing is desired, contact with authorized
engineer.
Always remove the mains plug from the power socket when performing checking or
replacing the fuse, and never use any fuse different from the original one.
Secure the fuse once checked or replaced. For servicing or maintenance, call
authorized service engineer.
4.4 Clear error, warning and alarm
When the equipment displays Er01 or Er02, check the connections of the Pt100
where necessary. Er01 and Er02 are indications for short-circuit and open-
circuit of the temperature sensor PT100.
For inspection, remove the screws for the bottom cover as for checking and
replacing of the fuse (Fig 5). Check the wire connecting terminals of the PCBA
for the temperature sensor (82), and make sure no short-circuit or open-
circuit occurs (loose connection, for example). If necessary, a multimeter may
be used for the resistance of the Pt100. The value of the sensor is 100Ω@0°C
and +0.385Ω/°C. At 26°C ambient, the resistance of the sensor is about 110Ω.
In most cases, loose wiring and terminating rather than open-circuit of the
Pt100 sensor could trigger an error and alarm. Once fixed, those alarms will
disappear when switching on the power again. If alarm still exists with Pt100
checked or replaced, and for servicing or maintenance, call authorized service
engineer.
When the equipment displays Stb, try first to pull down the temperature of the
heater or the heat transfer liquid and find the cause of the over temperature.
The STB resets automatically once temperature resumes to below designated
limit value. Reboot the controller by powering off and on again, press (Fig
4-60) and , the normal operation of the temperature control will resume. If
warning still exists with STB checked or reset, and for servicing or
maintenance, call authorized service engineer.
When the equipment displays alarm ourh, cut off power and deal with the
equipment after bath temperature goes down close to ambient, then turn on
power again. If alarm still exists with Pt100 checked or replaced, and for
servicing or maintenance, call authorized service engineer.
When the equipment displays SPuP, forced convection models only, the equipment
can’t work normally, cut off power, find the cause of the over temperature.
Reboot the controller again, if the equipment displays SPuP again, press (Fig
4-60) and ,the normal operation of the temperature control will resume. If
warning still exists, and for servicing or maintenance, call authorized
service engineer.
