Permissible ambient humidity:
max. 70 % r.H., non-condensing.
CAUTION
Condensation by excess humidity.
Danger of corrosion on the housing after operating at humidity values > 70 % r.H.
for a long period.
Let the chamber dry for several days before shut-down:
•
Empty the Permadry water pan.
•
Chamber with active humidification:
Turn off humidity control (chap. 6.8).
•
Set the temperature set point to 60 °C /
140 °F
for approx. 2 hours.
•
Only then, shut down the chamber at the main power switch (1) and empty the
freshwater bag.
When after storage in a cold location you transfer the chamber to its warmer installation site,
condensation may form. Before start-up, wait at least one hour until the chamber has attained ambient
temperature and is completely dry.
Chamber with active humidification:
In case of a prolonged temporal decommissioning: Leave the
chamber door open or remove the optional access port plugs.

Location of installation and ambient conditions
Notes on the location of installation
Set up the chamber on a flat, even surface, free from vibration and in a well-ventilated, dry location. The
chambers are designed for setting up inside a building (indoor use).
Freestanding chamber are suitable for installation on tables or on the optionally available stand (height
200 mm /
0.5 ft
). Note: The site of installation must be capable of supporting the chamber’s weight (see
technical data, chap.25.4).
Align the chamber using a spirit level to ensure even covering of the cell-cultures with the medium. For
this purpose, manually adjust the four chamber feet.
The chambers can be stacked on top of each other (two chambers maximum). For safe stacking that is
easy to maintain, use the original BINDER stacking stand (chap. 18.8.1) or the stacking adapter (chap.
18.8.2).
To completely separate the chamber from the power supply, you must disconnect the power plug. Install
the chamber in a way that the power plug is easily accessible and can be easily pulled in case of danger.
For the user there is no risk of temporary overvoltages in the sense of EN 61010-1:2010.
In order to avoid contamination, never place the chamber directly on the floor.
CAUTION
Danger of overheating.
Damage to the chamber.
∅
Do NOT set up chambers in non-ventilated recesses.
Ensure sufficient ventilation for dispersal of the heat.
Do not install or operate the chamber in potentially explosive areas.
DANGER
Explosion hazard.
Danger of death.
∅
Do NOT operate the chamber in potentially explosive areas.
KEEP explosive dust or air-solvent mixtures AWAY from the vicinity of the chamber.
