Safety and Installation
Please read all the information in this booklet before using the unit.
WARNING
HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE DANGEROUS: they can cause serious burns to operators and
ignite combustible material.
Techne have taken great care in the design of these units to protect operators from hazards, but
Operators should pay attention to the following points:
• USE CARE AND WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES TO PROTECT HANDS.
• DO NOT put hot objects on or near combustible objects.
• DO NOT operate the unit close to inflammable liquids or gases.
• DO NOT place any liquid directly in your unit.
• At all times USE COMMON SENSE.
OPERATOR SAFETY
All users of Techne equipment must have available the relevant literature needed to ensure their
safety. It is important that only suitably trained personnel operate this equipment, in accordance
with the instructions contained in this manual and with general safety standards and procedures.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by Techne the protection provided by the
equipment to the Operator may be impaired.
All Techne units have been designed to conform to international safety requirements and are
fitted with an overtemperature cutout. On some models, the cutout is adjustable and should be
set to suit the application. On all other models the cutout is preset to protect the unit.
If a safety problem should be encountered, the unit should be switched off and isolated from the
mains electricity supply.
INSTALLATION
This Techne Industrial Fluidised Bath (IFB) is designed to be operated as a permanently
connected piece of equipment and must be installed by a fully qualified electrician with
experience of installing 3 phase equipment.
The IFB must be installed with an appropriately rated switch and/or circuit breaker included in the
building installation.
The switch or circuit breaker should be in close proximity to the IFB and within easy reach of the
operator.
The switch or circuit breaker should also be clearly marked as the disconnecting device for the
IFB.
The supply wiring should be of a specification suitable for the ratings indicated on the IFB rating
plate; in addition it should also comply with local, national and international standards where
applicable.
As every installation is unique, it is not possible to give detailed instruction regarding any drilling
of the cabinet base plate that may be required for routing of the supply cable. However, the cable
must be adequately secured with a suitably approved cable gland at the point it enters the
cabinet. It is also a requirement that the earth conductor is terminated in such a way that it is
longer than the 3 phase conductors and also longer than the neutral conductor. This is to prevent,
in the case of the supply cable becoming insecure, the earth conductor disconnecting before the
other 4 conductors.
