*Note:
Transition times are measured after a 1 hour soak at the respective start temperature with an empty chamber,
as indicated on the temperature controller, 23°C ambient. Measured with setpoint beyond the start and end
temperatures. Does not include the effect of proportional band when approaching setpoint.

NOTE:
Performance is typical and based on operation at 23°C (73°F) ambient and nominal input voltage. This
product is designed for use in a normal conditioned laboratory. Operation at higher ambient temperatures will result
in decreased cooling performance. Additional ports and shelves will also affect performance. Operation above 30°C
(85°F) or below 16°C (60°F) ambient is not recommended.
