Water pan
The water pan permits high humidity without condensation on the inner walls of the incubator.
Place the positioning frame
on the two marks at the bot-
tom of the inner chamber.
Then put the water pan in
the positioning frame. Make
sure that the water pan has
firm contact with the inner
chamber bottom and rests
tightly on it.

Figure 14: Placed water pan
Fill the water pan with 300 ml of distilled, sterilized water.
We recommend cleaning (chap. 15.1) and refilling the pans 2 to 3 times a week. For evacuation, remove
the water pan.
We recommend using distilled, sterile water to achieve optimum growth results. Any corrosive damage
that may arise following use of water of different quality or by additives is excluded from the liability
agreement.
If required, you can add microbiologically inhibiting substances such as copper chips, copper sulphate or
ethylene diamine tetra-vinegar acid (EDTA) in a concentration of
1 to 5
mmol/l.
Empty the water pan before moving the incubator. In case of the contents spilling, immediately shut down
the incubator and dry it carefully and completely.

gas bottle
A gas supply pressure above 2.5 bar /
36 psi
will result in unit damage. It is therefore important to check
the real output pressure of gas bottles, sets of gas bottles or central gas supplies
before
connecting the
gas hose to the incubator.
CAUTION
Wrong sequence when connecting gas supply.
Damage to the unit.
∅
Do NOT connect the unit before setting the pressure.
¾
When connecting, use this sequence:
1. Open the main tap of gas bottle or gas supply
2. Set the output pressure on the pressure scale
3. Connect the gas hose to the incubator
