Installation
The FTS Systems BioCool™ 80 is designed for bench-top installation in a laboratory
environment. The unit should be installed on a firm, level surface in a location that is
convenient for both operation and service.
NEVER PLACE THE UNIT IN AN AREA WHERE EXCESSIVE HEAT, MOISTURE OR
CORROSIVE MATERIALS ARE PRESENT.
Air Flow Considerations
The FTS Systems BioCool™ 80 is equipped with an air-cooled refrigeration system.
Air is pulled from the left side of the unit to cool the refrigeration system components
and then exits the rear panel. When positioning your system, ensure that it is located
on a firm, level surface in an area that provides adequate air circulation.
Inadequate airflow will degrade the unit’s cooling capacity and in extreme cases may
result in compressor failure. A minimum of four (4) inches of clearance on all sides of
the unit is required to ensure proper airflow and avoid damage to the refrigeration
system.
Ambient Conditions
For best low-temperature operation, consider that the ideal ambient temperature for
your FTS Systems BioCool™ 80 is approximately 22 °C (72 °F). Higher ambient
temperatures will interfere in the system’s ability to achieve its ultimate low
temperature.
NEVER OPERATE THE FTS SYSTEMS BIOCOOL™ 80 IN AN AREA WITH AN
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE ABOVE 32°C (90°F).
Services and Utilities
The FTS Systems BioCool™ 80’s serial tag, which is located on the unit’s back panel,
provides the unit’s serial number and electrical requirements. Ensure that the voltage,
phase, frequency and amperage listed on the serial tag match your facility’s available
power supply ( e.g., as a minimum the power outlet you intend to use must meet the
requirements listed on the serial tag).
CAUTION! IF YOU ARE UNSURE ABOUT THE AVAILABLE ELECTRICAL VOLTAGE
SUPPLY IN YOUR FACILITY, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
Prior to connecting your FTS Systems BioCool™ 80 to the available electrical supply,
ensure that the Main Power switch is in the Off position. You may connect the unit to
the available electrical supply at this time.
