Safety Precautions
Read the manual thoroughly before operation.
This product is for indoor use only.
The operator should not open or attempt to repair the instrument, which will
result in loss of repair guarantee or could cause an accident. If there is an
issue with the instrument, contact Hygiena.
The instrument should be operated in an environment with low temperature,
little dust, no water and away from the sun or heat lamp. The area should have
good airflow, no corrosive gas or a strong disturbing magnetic field. It
should be far away from central heating, camp stoves and any other heat
resource.
The power switch is on the rear of the device, push “I” to power ON the
device, and push “O” to power OFF the device.
The power connector is on the rear of the device, DC12V input, inside is “+”,
outside is “-”.
Power OFF when not in use.
For extended non-use, remove the connector plug and cover incubator to shield
from dust.
Operation Guide
Control keys:
START/STOP ……………. start or stop the procedure
Prog……………………….. select various programs
…………………. for setting temperature and time
…………………………. move the cursor
Create a new program
Press the “Prog.” key to select various programs, from P1 to P9.
For example, select P8, then press the key to move the cursor, press the keys
to set a new value.
Users can set two temperatures and times for each program. The single symbol,
is the first temperature and time, the double symbol is the second temperature
and time.
Press the key to all the way to the right end of the display
screen to toggle between first and second temperature and times.
In 8 seconds, the cursor will disappear exiting the setting interface.
See the example diagram below:
*In 8 seconds the cursor will exit the setting interface.
Select minute or second as unit of time for timer
The timer unit of time can be set to either minute or second. To set the unit
of time, press the key to enter setting interface, release, then hold the key
for 2 seconds. Press the to select min. or sec. then press the key to
confirm.
Run and stop a program
Press the “Prog.” key to select the program.
The instrument starts to heat automatically according to the previously set
temperature.
It shows “NOTOK” on the display as it is heating up. When the target
temperature is reached, the display screen shows “OK.” Then press the
START/STOP key to run the timer.
- NOTE : When the first timing at the first temperature is complete, the second temperature automatically begins.
When the second time reaches 0, the buzzer alarms and the display will read
“PROGRAM END”. The second temperature will be maintained. Press any key to
return, or press the START key to run again.
Press the “START/STOP” key for 1 second to stop the program.
Temperature Calibration
The temperature of the instrument has been calibrated at the factory. If there is deviation between the actual temperature and the displayed temperature, the calibration steps in section 4.5.1 may be followed. The Instrument uses double temperatures adjustment to ensure its accuracy. This means it is linearly calibrated on 40 ℃ and 80 ℃ (two points). The temperature veracity will be within ±0.5 ℃ after the double temperature adjustment. The ambient temperature should be lower than 35 ℃ when starting temperature calibration.
Calibration
After the instrument is powered on, it will enter standby mode.
Make sure both the ambient temperature in the room and the temperature
displayed on the instrument are below 35 ℃. If the temperature is higher than
35 ℃, wait until the temperature is below 35 ℃. In this example, an ambient
and set program display temperature of 20.5 ℃ is used.
Inject olefin oil (mineral oil) into one of the cone-shaped wells, and then
put a thermometer into the well. The precision of the thermometer should be
within 0.1 ℃ and the temperature ball should be completely immerged into the
cone-shaped well, incubate for 20 min. See Fig. a.
Let the instrument sit for 20 min at the set temperature.
After 20 min., Press the and keys simultaneously, the display temperature (in
this example) will show 20.5 ℃ , and then begin to rise to 40.0 ℃
automatically. During this time, the sign will flicker.
When the display temperature reaches 40.0 ℃, the signs ADJ and will flicker
together. Let the instrument incubate at 40.0 ℃ for 20 min.
After 20 min, the thermometer temperature can be matched with the display
temperature. Read the actual temperature of the thermometer (in this example)
it is 38.8 ℃. Press the and keys to amend the display temperature value to
38.8 ℃, and then press the “start” key to confirm.
At this point the incubator temperature will begin to rise automatically until
it reaches 80.0℃, the sign on the display will flicker. When the display
temperature reaches 80.0℃, the signs ADJ and will flicker together. Let
instrument Incubate at 80℃, for 20 min.
After 20 min, the thermometer temperature can be matched with the display
temperature. Read the actual temperature of the thermometer (in this example)
it is 79.0℃. Press the key to amend the display value to 79.0, then press the
“start” key to confirm.
The screen will return to the display as seen to the right.
After temperature calibration, the temperature displayed is now the same as
the temperature of the block.
Canceling Calibration
During temperature calibration, press and key simultaneously to cancel the calibration. If canceled, the system will keep the former calibration.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Block wells should be cleaned with a cloth dampened with alcohol.
Power OFF the incubator when cleaning.
Do not drop cleaning liquid directly into the well when cleaning.
Do not use corrosive cleaning liquid.
