8 Maintenance and cleaning
The stirring drive (2) is maintenance-free.
The magnetic drive inside the housing is embedded in synthetic resin and watertight.
This prevents germs from being carried over to the inside or the outside. The stainless
steel surface is largely resistent to acids and alkalis.
The standing surface is coated with a protective film. You may leave this on the stirring
drive (5), or strip it off.
Clean the surfaces of the magnetic stirrer (2) at regular intervals. You can wash it down
with water or a disinfectant solution. For this purpose the magnetic stirrer (2) may be
totally immersed in water.
Wipe the surface of the control unit (5) using a damp cloth. Do not use caustic liquids.
In case of necessity to repair the equipment, it should be returned to an authorized
servicing agent. The equipment must be clean and free from harmful substances.
To avoid transport damages during the shipment, please send the equipment correctly
packed in the original packing.
Please always enclose the filled out return delivery note.
If necessary ask for the return delivery note at Thermo (address: see inside of the
cover sheet).
When ordering spares, please state equipment type and serial number.
You can obtain further technical documents (e.g. circuit diagrams, board data) for your
engineers by contacting the address on the inside of the cover sheet.
CAUTION
In case of repair, the equipment must only be opened by an authorized
