Start Up Procedure

  • Before proceeding, ensure that all internal and external packaging has been removed from the appliance, including tape, plastic bags, and foam pieces.
  • Take the supplied lead and plug it into the male IEC socket on the rear of the incubator. Next, plug the 3-pin plug into a 10A General Purpose Outlet.
  • Turn the main switch, located adjacent to the temperature controller, to "ON" to start the incubator.
  • The controller will go through a warm-up period, during which all segments of the display will illuminate before showing the set temperature (SV) on the lower display and the actual incubator temperature (PV) on the top display.

PV omron Process Value: Current temperature within the cabinet
SV omron Set Value: Set temperature within the cabinet.

Temperature Control

Use the “UP” or “DOWN” arrows to change the temperature. Once the desired temperature is set, wait a few seconds. The digits will stop flashing, confirming the entry.

Sensor Calibration

Several factors can affect the accuracy of the displayed temperature compared to the actual temperature inside the incubator, including:

  • Sample load distribution – The load should be evenly distributed inside the cabinet.
  • Product temperature – At higher temperatures, heat loss from the product will be greater.
  • Sensor placement – The temperature sensor cannot be positioned at the centre of the incubator, as it may be damaged.

The Omron temperature controller includes a sensor correction parameter, displayed as “iNS” (Input Shift). This parameter allows for a correction value to be added or subtracted, ensuring the displayed temperature matches the actual internal temperature.

  • The calibration sensor can be attached to the centre of the middle shelf.
  • Once the incubator has stabilised, any difference in the temperature reading can be corrected using the sensor correction parameter.
  • The calibration parameter can be accessed as follows:
    • Press PAGE to display the sensor correction parameter.
    • Use the UP or DOWN button to adjust the sensor correction.
    • After adjusting, wait for the digits to stop flashing—the screen will then display the adjusted value.
    • Press PAGE to return to the main screen.

 

Manual Reset Safety Thermostat

The incubator is equipped with a non-adjustable over-temperature safety thermostat. In the event of an over-temperature condition, the thermostat will automatically isolate the heating elements to prevent overheating.

This safety feature is designed to protect the cabinet from excessive heat buildup, which may occur due to a failure of the air circulation fans or if the cabinet is overstocked, restricting airflow.

For instructions on resetting the safety thermostat, refer to the manual.
