4.2 Basic Functions
Shaking
The table rotates with a speed of 20 to 400 RPM. The
counterbalancing weight is located underneath the table.
Depending on the model (fixed throw or variable throw), the orbital
throw is 12.5 mm, 25 mm or 50 mm.
The loading weights must lie within the specified range. Loading
weights above or below this range prevent the table moving
smoothly and thus increase wear of the bearings and joints.
The loading weights depend on the position of the deck in the
stack, the throw and the rotation speed.
NOTICE!
The loading weights and maximum speeds are
given in the chapter "Technical Data".
Temperature control
The temperature is controlled via two cross-flow fans, which are
each equipped with a downstream heating element. The
temperature is measured and controlled with a Pt100 temperature
sensor. The two cross-flow fans are each equipped with a
thermostat to prevent overheating. It switches off the heating at
80 °C.
The incubation shaker is doubly protected against overheating:
Capillary thermostat with rotary knob
(standard setting from 65 °C)
Melting fuse (84 °C)
NOTICE!
Please contact the manufacturer's service center if
the melting fuse has blown.
The heating is out of order and can only be
reinstated by replacing the melting fuse.
