Warning
THE UNIT WORKS UP TO 100°C. This temperature can cause burns. Techne
take great efforts to protect operators from hazards, but the following points are
brought to your attention:
1 Use care and wear protective gloves to remove hybridisation tubes from the cabinet
if the unit is at high temperature.
If the protocol allows, it is better to allow the unit to cool to below 40
o
C before
attempting to remove the tubes.
2 The coloured end cap of the 80mm large tube and the 44mm small tube has two
holes, so that you have to be careful not to spill the probe through these.
One is the hole which allows the air to expand when the tube is heated.
The other is the filling hole which is revealed when the spindle cap is removed.
DO NOT TIP THE TUBE SO THAT THE COLOURED END IS DOWN AS THIS
WILL CAUSE A SPILLAGE.
3 The unit has been designed to conform to international safety specifications and is
fitted with a resettable over-temperature cutout and an adjustable cutout. If, for any
reason, the temperature rises above 115
o C, the over-temperature protection cuts
out the heater, but the tubes continue to rotate. The over-temperature light comes
on. Check the reason for the cut out and, if there is no obvious cause, reset the
cutouts once the unit has cooled. The reset, on the back of the unit, is operated by
pressing the centre of the button indicated on page 11.
