8.3 IP66 Sealed Mains Outlet Socket (230VAC)
WARNING!
The incubator must be plugged into a mains supply protected by an RCD
device. Any device chosen must be a ‘self-resetting’ type which will
automatically reconnect power to the incubator as soon as power is restored
following a power failure.
IP 66 Sealed Mains Outlet Socket is designed to provide a safe and convenient
means of using mains powered equipment within the incubator chamber.
The socket is located at the back, top right hand corner of the chamber. The mains
inlet fuse of the incubator allows a maximum of 2 Amps over and above the power
required for the incubator (6 Amps fuse rating for High Temperature Decontamination
model).

Working with mains power inside a humid environment (where the incubator is
humidified) can be hazardous. The following precautions should be observed:
The instrument or equipment and its external connections to be used inside the
chamber should be specified as suitable for use in a humid environment, and at
37°C (see also “Using Powered Equipment within the Chamber”).
Always ensure the connections are properly and securely made.
Switch OFF the green illuminated Switch on the front of the incubator before
connecting or disconnecting equipment inside the chamber.
