Intended use
Gravity convection ovens RE
and
mechanical convection ovens RF
are designed for all standard
drying and tempering tasks as well as sterilizing glassware. They are intended for use in biological,
chemical, medical, pharmaceutical and physical laboratories.
Incubators RI
are designed to cultivate microorganisms at defined temperatures. They can be used e. g.
for determining the number of microorganisms through plate count methods or detecting of pathogenic
germs, e.g. in product samples. They are intended for use in biological, chemical, medical, and
pharmaceutical laboratories.
Any solvent content must not be explosive or flammable. A mixture of any component of the charging
material with air must NOT be explosive. The operating temperature must lie below the flash point or
below the sublimation point of the charging material.
Other applications are not approved.
Do NOT use redLINE chambers for drying purpose if greater quantities of steam leading to condensation
will be set free.
Following the instructions in this operating manual and conducting regular maintenance work
(chap. 10) are part of the intended use.
Due to the special demands of the Medical Device Directive (MDD) this ovens are not qualified for
sterilization of medical devices as defined by the directive 93/42/EWG.
