Start Up Procedure
- Position the cabinet as previously instructed and plug the mains lead into the power supply, but do not turn it on yet.
- The cabinet comes with fixed shelves. Adjust their positions using the provided support clips to suit your storage needs.
- Turn on the power. The internal circulating fan will start immediately, and the internal light can be switched on using the "Light" switch on the front panel.
NOTE: If the cabinet has been moved, allow it to sit for 20 minutes before turning it on. - After a short warm-up period, the temperature control will display the internal temperature. The refrigeration compressor will start after a few minutes.
- Allow the cabinet to reach its operating temperature and run for at least 8 hours before loading stock.
Controller
Laboratory Refrigerators use the Dixell XR70 Controller, a microprocessor-based controller designed for medium or low-temperature freezers, featuring relay outputs to control the compressor, fan, and defrost (if applicable).
To access the full instructions for the Dixell XR70 controller, please refer to the Dixell XR70 manual.
Low Temperature Protective Cutout (LTPC)
As an added safety feature, the refrigerator can be factory-fitted with a low-temperature protective cutout. This feature is factory-set and not adjustable, preventing the internal temperature from dropping below 0°C.
For more information, refer to the LTPC Manual.
Chart Recorder
Laboratory Refrigerators can be equipped with an optional circular chart recorder. This recorder features a seven-day chart and includes a battery backup, which ensures operation for at least 24 hours in the event of a power failure.
For detailed setup and usage instructions, please refer to the Chart Recorder Manual.
