Sample Pattern 0 Description
The program starts at 22 °C and holds (soaks) at that temperature for 10 minutes. The
temperature then ramps from 22 °C to -6 °C in 15 minutes. This results in a ramp rate
of 1.9 °C/m. A temperature of -6 °C is then held (soaked) for 15 minutes. The
temperature then ramps from -6 °C to -40 °C over the period of 1 hour and 43
minutes. This results in a ramp rate of .33 °C/m. The temperature is then held at
-40 °C for 10 minutes.
Note:
The system has been factory programmed to sound an alarm when the programmed
pattern ends.
