3 Installation of the device
3.1 Ambient conditions
The device must only be operated at locations that meet the particular
ambient conditions listed below:
Requirements:
Location
• Draft-free and dry location.
• The minimal distance to adjacent surfaces must be observed on all
sides (see Section 3.3.).
• The operating room must be equipped with appropriate room
ventilation.
• Solid, level, fire-proof surface.
• Vibration-proof substructure (floor stand, lab table) capable of bearing
the weight of the device and of accessories (particularly if several
devices are stacked).
• The electrical system of the device has been designed for an operating
height of up to 2000 m above sea level.
• To ensure a constant incubation temperature of 37 °C, the ambient
temperature must be within a range of +18 °C to +33 °C.
• Relative humidity up to 80% (max.).
• No direct exposure to sunlight.
• Devices that produce excessive heat must not be placed near the
location of the HERAcell
®
150i / 240i.
3.2 Room ventilation
When CO

/O

is supplied, the work space of the incubator is slightly
pressurized. The pressure is released through the pressure compensation
opening into the operating room.
Pressure compensation and any opening of the glass door/gas-tight screen
during the operation of the device will release very small quantities of CO

into the operating room; the room ventilation must be capable of
carrying the released gas safely off into the open.
In addition, heat dissipating from the device during continuous operation
may cause a change in the room climate.
• Therefore, the HERAcell
®
150i / 240i must only be installed in rooms
with sufficient ventilation.
• Do not install the device in room recesses without ventilation.
Technical ventilation
• The room ventilation should be a technical ventilation that complies
with the requirements of BGR 120 (Guidelines for laboritories,
Germany) or some other suited ventilation system with appropriate
capacity.
