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.
Under normal circumstances this unit is intended for use indoors, at room temperatures between 5° and 40°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.
Power : The power source must match the voltage, cycle, phase and ampere requirements listed on the data plate (located just above the power cord on the back side of the oven). The unit is intended for 50/60 HZ application. Make sure your power supply matches that shown on the data plate. VOLTAGE SHOULD NOT VARY MORE THAN 10% FROM THE DATA PLATE RATING. A separate circuit is recommended to preclude loss of product due to overloading or circuit failure. Note that the electrical supply to the unit must conform to all national and local electrical codes.
Location : When selecting a site for the oven, consider conditions that may affect performance, such as heat or cold from air vents, fast moving air currents, other ovens, autoclaves, direct sun, etc. Avoid high traffic areas that may reduce accessibility to the oven and allow at least 20cm between the unit and surrounding walls or partitions that might obstruct free airflow.
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 and 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.
Leveling: The unit must sit level and solidly. The oven is equipped with non-adjustable rubber feet to raise it off the counter and prevent sliding; however, the counter must be level to provide optimum working and safety conditions.
Cleaning: The oven was cleaned at the factory, but not sterilized. Remove all interior parts, including shelves and shelf clips. If assembled and clean the inside of the chamber thoroughly with a disinfectant that is appropriate for your application. DO NOT USE chlorine-based bleaches or abrasive cleaners, as they will damage the ovens interior surfaces. DO NOT USE spray cleaners that might  leak through openings and cracks and get on electrical parts or that may contain solvents that willharm coatings. A regular periodic cleaning is recommended.
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.
Shelves : Place shelves in the chamber at desired position. See Figure 1.

CONTROL PANEL OVERVIEW

Power Switch: The main power I/O (on/off) switch controls all power to the oven. It must be in the I or ON position before any systems are operational.
Main Temperature Controller: Marked SET TEMPERATURE, this control is equipped with an adjustment knob and a graduated dial. The graduated dial is marked with 10 major increments. The increments can be used as index points for setting and returning to set point temperatures.
HEATING light: This green pilot light is marked HEAT ACTIVATED and indicates when the element has been activated and the oven is heating. When set point is reached the pilot light will cycle on and off as the elements maintain the temperature selected.
Over Temperature Thermostat: Marked SET OVERTEMPERATURE, this control is completely independent of the Main Temperature control and is equipped with an adjustment knob that requires a flat-edged tool when making adjustments to eliminate accidental changes. It provides safety temperature protection for the oven. If for any reason the oven temperature rises above the Main Temperature control’s set point, the Over Temperature Thermostat will limit the rise to approximately 10°C above the set point selected.
Over Temperature light : This red pilot light is marked OVERTEMPERATURE ACTIVATED and is on when the Over Temperature Thermostat has been activated and taken control of the elements. Under normal operating conditions this pilot light should never be on.

PRECAUTIONS

This unit has been designed with a dampered vent from the chamber. In order to work effectively and safely, some precautions will need to be taken by the operator.
The bottom surface of the chamber should not be used as a work area.
In most applications, the exhaust damper will need to be open during drying or degassing for best results.
THIS OVEN IS NOT AN EXPLOSION PROOF OVEN AND IS NOT DESIGNED TO HANDLE COMBUSTIBLE GASSES. Do not place explosive, combustible or flammable materials into the chamber.
Some of the out-gassed byproducts may be hazardous or unpleasant to operating personnel. If this is the case, the exhausts should be positively ventilated to the outside and dealt with according to local regulations. Your dealer can provide you with a power exhaust that greatly helps under these applications.
Do not place sealed or filled containers in the oven chamber.
This oven is NOT designed for use in Class I, II, or III locations as defined by the National Electrical Code.
This oven is not intended, nor can it be used, as a patient connected device.

OPERATION

Power Supply: The power supply must be properly grounded (earthed) and correctly sized to match the unit data plate rating. The supply voltage must match the data plate voltage within 10%. If supplied with a detachable cord set, plug the female end into the inlet on the unit and the male plug into the supply. Assure that units requiring a fuse have a fuse installed.
Push the power switch to the ON position and turn the Over Temperature Thermostat to its maximum position, clockwise so it will not interrupt the setting of the Main Temperature control.
Place the reference thermometer through the exhaust port on top of the unit; a clip is provided with your accessory package. See Figure 3 on the following page.
Setting Main Temperature : The operating range for this oven is ambient room temperature + 5C to 200C. To set the Main Temperature Controller turn the knob to the desired oven temperature, using the graduated dial as a reference guide. Allow one hour for the temperature to stabilize. Using the reference thermometer, verify the oven temperature; if it is not at the desired value, turn the control knob up or down as needed. Allow the temperature to re-stabilize, continuing the process until the exact desired temperature is achieved.
Note: Slight vapor or smoke may occur in the initial heat-up. This is a normal occurrence when the oven is first brought up to temperature and protective coatings on the element become hot.
Setting Over Temperature: As stated in earlier, the Thermostat should be set to its maximum position. Now turn the control knob counterclockwise just until the OVERTEMPERATURE ACTIVATED light comes on. Next, slowly turn the control knob clockwise just until the light goes off. Then turn the control knob clockwise two (2) minor scale divisions past the point where the light went out. The Over Temperature Thermostat should now be set at approximately °C above the Main Temperature set point. Note that it is not recommended that the unit be allowed to operate using the Over Temperature Thermostat as the temperature controller for an extended period of time. See the Troubleshooting section if the Thermostat is activated

PLACEMENT OF NEW THERMOMETER CLIP

MAINTENANCE

Note: Prior to any maintenance or service on this unit, disconnect service cord from the power supply.
Cleaning: Clean the oven interior on a regular basis. When washing interior of unit, handle gasket carefully so as not to impair the positive seal. Clean the inside of the chamber thoroughly with a disinfectant that is appropriate for your application. Make sure to rinse the cleaned surface with a damp cloth. DO NOT USE chlorine-based bleaches or abrasive cleaners, as they will damage the oven chamber. DO NOT USE spray cleaners that might leak through openings and cracks and get on electrical parts 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.
Storage: If the unit is to be shut down for an extended period of time, wipe the chamber clean and let dry before closing door to eliminate possibility of contamination. If the unit is to be transported, remove shelving and trays, clasp the door shut and disconnect the power supply. Please refer to Section 3.3, Lifting / Handling for further direction.
No maintenance is required on the electrical components. If oven fails to operate as specified please review Troubleshooting prior to calling customer service.
