Control system
The incubator shaker is equipped with a microprocessor control
system. It is used to control, monitor and program the unit.
Each deck of a stack can be operated from each operating panel.
An integrated timer function allows programming of time cycles.
Various displays and alarm functions are integrated into the control
system.
Operation
The operating panel in the door of the incubator shaker is used to
activate the parameters and set the target values.
The incubator shaker is equipped with a tray lock that secures the
tray to the table. When the door is fully open, the locking hooks on
the table release the tray. The tray ejectors underneath the table lift
the tray out of the locking cones on the table.
The tray is pulled out of the incubation chamber over glide rails and
the embedded roller bearings located on the interior side of the
door. 2 Cylindrical pins (stops) in the glide rails limit the end
position of the extended tray. The fully extended tray rests partly
on the door and partly on the table.
The table is stopped as soon as the door is opened by more than
30°. The door can only be opened completely after the table has
stopped moving. The table restarts automatically as soon as the
door is closed by more than 45°.
All activated parameters are stopped as soon as the door is
opened by more than 30°. They are re-activated as soon as the
door is closed by more than 45°.
