CAUTION!
Operating the Innova 43/43R at temperatures above 60ºC can result in
permanent damage to the sensor.
Water can be added to the spill pan in order to elevate the humidity level in the chamber.
See Section 6.9 for instructions.
6.9
Filling the Water Reservoir
If you choose to use the spill pan as a water reservoir to reduce evaporation and to raise
the humidity level in the chamber:
1. Open the lid and temporarily remove the platform.
2. Make sure that the drain check valve is closed.
NOTE:
As you add water, do not allow the water to splash or flow into the recessed
middle of the pan, where the bearing housing assembly is mounted. Pour
water very slowly into the shallow area beyond the edge of the spill cover to
protect the bearing housing.
3. Accessing the pan/reservoir from the left, the right or in front of the spill cover,
slowly
fill the reservoir with no more than 3 liters of distilled water. A long, narrow
watering can or a flexible hose will make it easier to access the pan while protecting
the bearing housing from accidental overflow.
At a 37°C setpoint, the chamber loses approximately 500 mL/hr from the pan.
At a 25°C setpoint, and placed in a 25°C room, the chamber achieves a relative humidity
equilibrium that is approximately 15% above the ambient humidity.
