is established via a cable with a connector for non-
heating appliances. The holder for the two device
fuses is integral to the power supply socket.
4.7 Work space components
The working surface of the incubator has been desi-
gned to minimize the surface area. This helps to
reduce condamination and promotes easy of cleaning.
A
Internal chamber:
All components of the work space are made of stain-
less steel and have a burnished, absolutely smooth
and easy-to-clean surface. Any embossings have a
large radius.
Fig.8:
The components of the shelf system can be
removed easily so that only the easily treatable, sur-
face-reduced internal chamber [1] remains in the work
space for cleaning and manual disinfection works.
Water reservoir:
Fig.8:
The water reservoir [2] is integral to the internal
chamber floor and inclines toward the rear. The
embossing in the water tray is used to indicate mini-
mum level [3] and the maximum level [4].
Heating system:
Fig.8:
An air jacket heating is used for heating the
work space. The arrangement of the heating elements
ensures that condensate formation above the water
reservoir is prevented as fast as possible.
The outer door of the device is also heated. The heat
radiated onto the interior glass door prevents conden-
sate formation. The work space of the device always
remains visible, despite high humidity.
Shelf system:
Fig.8:
The support rails [1] of the shelf system are per-
forated every 42 mm so that the support hooks [8] can
be inserted variably for any culture container size
required. The shelves [2] have an integrated tilt protec-
tion and withdrawal stop. For details of the shelf
system, see Section 5, „Start-up“.
