Operation Instructions

Open-package Inspection

Unpack the instrument carefully and check for any damage which may have arisen during transport. The open-package inspection aims to confirm the completeness of associated parts. The packing list is given below:

Table 3.1

Caution: If there is any apparent damage to the system, please do not plug it into the main power line.

Operation

• Ensure that the label indicates the correct voltage before connecting the instrument to the power supply.
• Do not operate the unit with a damaged power cord.
• Connect the power cord to the unit in the socket provided.
• Switch the power ON and the instrument will start to self-check.
• Mount a vessel with stirring liquid and stirring bar onto the work plate.
• Temperature and stirring can be set using two control knobs below the display panel.
• Set the target temperature and stirring speed and start heating and stirring.
• Put the external sensor probe into the vessel on the hotplate.
• Ensure that the tip of the sensor is at least 5-10 mm away from the bottom of the vessel.
• The LCD displays the actual temperature and set temperature.
• Disable the heating function and stirring function to switch OFF the operation.
• If the above operations are normal, the instrument is ready to operate. If there is any problem during the above operations, then the instrument may be damaged during transportation, please contact the manufacturer or supplier for technical support.
• Caution: Don’t remove the container in the running process of the product. Once the container is separated from the working tray surface of the product, the stirring function should be stopped before the container is placed again; the stirring function can be enabled again after the container is placed properly.

Functions

Heating Function

• The system has two independent safety circuits to control the temperature of hotplates. Safety detection circuits can monitor the temperature of hotplates.
• Switch power ON to see the normal screen display with the last run parameters.
• When the heating function is enabled, the actual temperature is displayed on the left side and set temperature on the right side of LCD screen.
• Press the temperature adjusting knob to enable/disable the heating function.

External Sensor Installation

• Connect the external sensor to the port provided at the back of the unit.
• Put the external sensor probe into the vessel on the hotplate.
