The end user can easily install the unit. Local city, county or other ordinances may govern the
use of this equipment. If you have any questions about local requirements, please contact the
appropriate local agency.
Under normal circumstances, this unit is intended for indoor use, at room temperature
between 5
°
and 40
°
C, with no more than 80% Relative Humidity at 25
°
C, and with a supply
voltage that does not vary by more than 10%. Be sure to contact NBS Customer Service if
you anticipate operating conditions outside these limits.
3.1 Power Supply
Electrical supply to the incubator must conform to all national and local electrical
codes.
Before you plug it into the power supply , consult the incubator’s serial data
plate for its voltage, cycle and ampere requirements. VOLTAGE SHOULD NOT
VARY MORE THAN 10% FROM THE RATING on the serial plate.
This unit is intended for 50/60 Hz application. A separate circuit is recommended to
prevent possible loss of product due to overloading or failure of any other equipment
on the same circuit.
3.2 Location, Handling & Leveling
In selecting a location, consider all conditions that might affect performance, such as heat
from radiators, ovens, autoclaves, etc. Avoid direct sunlight, fast-moving air currents,
heating/cooling ducts and high-traffic areas. Allow a minimum of 5 cm between the unit
and any walls or partitions that might obstruct free air flow.
These units are heavy, so care should be taken to use appropriate lifting devices that are
sufficiently rated for these loads. Lift the units only from the bottom surface; doors,
handles and knobs are not adequate for lifting or for stabilization. Completely restrain
each unit from tipping during lifting or transport. Remove all movable parts, such as
shelves and trays. Lock the doors in the closed position during transfer to prevent
shifting and damage.
CAUTION!
Make sure that the incubator is located in its intended position
and is level before filling the water jacket.
