5.3 Temperature and speed of rotation
1. Press once on the „UP“ or the „DOWN“ button

on the
tem pe rature control unit. The display

shifts from the
cur rent temperature to the prescribed set-point tem pe-
rature.
2. Set a new control temperature by repeated pressing of
the „UP“-Key.
3. After 3 seconds the new control temperature will be ac-
cepted by the equipment and the ACTUAL temperature
will be displayed.
Heating of the plate, however,
only commences after the „START“-Key has
been pressed!
4. Turn the speed control

clockwise to set the desired
number of revolutions per minute.
For higher speeds, please note that the eccentricity and the
unbalance compensation must be checked as descri bed
below before starting, and must be adjusted if neces sary.
The reading in the display

must change when the control
is turned and the base plate of the single platform

must
move at the speed that has been set.
5. Starting the heating process: Press once on the „Start“
button

to heat the base plate to the prescribed tem-
perature. A dot in the tempe rature display indicates that
the heater is ON. The running time display shows how
much time has elapsed since starting.
6. Changing the temperature during operation in the manual
mode: The display for set-point temperature must be
activated in a way analogous to points 3 to 5, and the
desired tempera ture must then be set. After a delay of
3 seconds, the unit then takes over the new set-point
temperature. This does not affect the display for time.
7. Ending the heating process: Pressing once on the „Stop“
button switches the temperature control OFF and the
unit stops heating. This does not affect the shaking
movement.
8. Ending the shaking movement: Turning the speed con-
trol counterclockwise reduces the rotational speed and
brings the shaking movement to an end.
Important:
The shaking movement prevents evaporation retardation.
Therefore, pressure should always be equalized with the
atmosphere before switching off the shaking movement.
