The independent overtemp system is designed as a safety to

maximum temperature of the cell cultures or customer’s equipment inside
the incubator if an overtemp condition occurs.
s
VWR Air Jacketed Incubators are equipped with a secondary temperature
monitoring system to monitor the air temperature inside the cabinet. This
system is designed as a safety device to turn off all heaters in the event of a
temperature control failure. Temperature control in the incubator will be
±1° of the overtemp setpoint.
The overtemperature is set by the factory (default) at 40°C. However, the
overtemp can be set up to 55°C in 0.5° increments.
If the incubator’s operating temperature setpoint is set above the overtemp
setpoint, the overtemp setpoint will automatically update to 1°C above the
temperature setpoint. It is recommended that the overtemp setpoint be
maintained at 1°C over the operating temperature setpoint.
To set the Overtemp setpoint:
1. Press the MODE key until the SET indicator lights
2. Press the right arrow until Otemp XX.X is displayed in the message
display
3. Press the up or down arrow key until the desired Overtemp setpoint is
displayed
4. Press ENTER to save the setting
5. Press the MODE key until the RUN indicator lights or press the right
or left arrow to go to the next or previous parameter.
