Caution
Do not connect an instrument, or a second instrument, to this
outlet that exceeds a total of 15 amps, as circuit overload will result.
s
The convenience outlet power cord of this instrument is equipped with a
three-prong (grounding) plug, which mates with a standard three-prong
(grounding) wall receptacle to minimize the possibility of electric shock
hazard from this apparatus. The customer should have the wall receptacle
and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle
is properly grounded.
Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal
responsibility and obligation of the user to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong receptacle.
Warning
DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third
(ground) prong from the power cord. DO NOT use a two-prong
adapter plug.
s
Determine the total amount of current presently being used by other
apparatus connected to the circuit that will be used for this power cord.
It is critical that the added current demand and other equipment on the
circuit not exceed the rating of the fuse or circuit breaker in use.
Loading Procedure: These incubators depend upon heated or cooled air
being circulated within the chamber by means of a blower fan located
above the chamber ceiling. The air flow enters the chamber from the
bottom diffuser panel.
DO NOT place any objects on the chamber floor or substitute solid
shelves for the shelves provided, as these procedures will obstruct the air
flow and temperature uniformity.
When loading the incubator, a space of 1/2" must be allowed between
adjacent items. This will allow maximum air circulation, which is
necessary for proper temperature uniformity.
Caution
The uniformity will be adversely affected if air circulation is
obstructed.
s
Do not exceed 100 lbs. load per shelf, as weight in excess of this will cause
the shelf to sag.
