Intended Use

This Australian-made refrigerated incubator is designed to maintain a temperature-controlled environment for laboratory equipment with a heat output of up to 200 watts. The temperature is factory set to 22°C, and forced air circulation ensures uniform airflow and precise temperature control.

Unpacking

Unpacking ProcessIn most cases, the incubator will be foam-wrapped and delivered on its castors via sensitive freight. (Fig 1)

For remote deliveries, the incubator may arrive in a crate. To remove the crate packaging:

  • Unscrew both the left and right sides of the packaging. (Fig 2)
  • A forklift is required to safely remove the incubator from the crate.

Unpacking Process of IncubatorDo not dispose of the packaging until the incubator has been fully inspected. If any damage is detected upon opening, contact your supplier or Thermoline immediately on +61 2 9604 3911 or email at service@thermoline.com.au.

 

Moving and Lifting

Operating Environment

Location

  • Place the incubator away from direct sunlight and heat sources (e.g., heaters).
  • Ensure the room's ambient temperature does not exceed the cabinet's operational limits.
  • The incubator should be stored inside at all times. Failure to adhere to this could cause significant drops in cabinet performance and damage to items stored inside.

 Environmental Conditions

Condition Temperature Humidity
Extreme Operating Environment 10°C to 32°C Up to 85% RH
Optimal Environment 23°C (±2.0°C) 50% RH (±5% RH)

Electrical Connections

TMLR-200 cabinets require a 10amp, 230V, 50Hz power supply. Use a dedicated outlet for the cabinet, and avoid using power boards or extension cords. Each cabinet is supplied with a standard 3-pin moulded plug for connection to the mains.

Power Supply:

  • All incubators come with a 2.5m removable mains power lead, featuring a three-pin plug and a female IEC plug. Ensure the cabinet is positioned at a reasonable distance from the power supply.

  • The cabinet itself has a male IEC socket.

 

Warning Operating Environment Warnings

  • The TMLR-200 cabinet requires adequate ventilation. Ensure a minimum clearance of 100mm on both sides and at the back of the unit.

  • The incubator should be stored indoors at all times. Failure to adhere to this could cause significant drops in cabinet performance and damage to items stored inside.

  • Incubators are not suitable for use with flammable solvents, as they are fitted with components that may be a source of ignition.
