IV. LABELS 

 
There are various labels on the body of this unit.  Listed below are the labels and their 
meanings. 

 
This symbol means: ATTENTION.  The INSTRUCTION MANUAL IS TO 
BE CONSULTED FOR FURTHER INFORMATION 

 

 
 
This symbol means: WARNING. HOT SURFACE. 
 

 

 
This symbol means: GROUND OR EARTH CONNECTIONS 
 
 

 

 

V. CAUTIONS 

 

CHILLER/HEATER PLATE SURFACE 
 
The SC20 Series are capable of chilling and heating the plate surface from -10ºC  
(-20C on XT versions) to 100ºC (110ºC on XR versions).  Temperatures from 44ºC (110ºF) 
to 100ºC (212ºF) are hot enough to burn the skin if touched. 

Use extreme caution at all 

times.  

Never leave your unit accessible to others when it is hot.  Never touch the plate 

surface unless you are sure it is cool.  

Note that there is a red LED on the front panel 

marked HOT.  This will illuminate when the heater surface goes above 50.0°C (122°F).

 

 
ORBITAL MIXER 

 

The plate that holds the sample blocks is mounted on the orbital mixing mechanism. 
Note that there are two cardboard restraints wedged under the spill shield around the 
heater plate. Be sure to remove these before using the mixer to prevent damage. 
 
ELECTRICAL 
 
The cooling/heating module in the SC20 Series runs using 12 volts DC at 4.2 amps for the 
SC20 and 8.4 amps for the SC20XR, SC20XT.  The units are supplied with a universal 
power supply that can take inputs from 100 to 260 volts AC, 50/60 Hz.  The units are 
supplied with an AC input cord for the power supply.  Be certain to use a line cord with the 
same rating and of the same type as the one supplied by the manufacturer.  Use the 
normal care and precaution one would use with any electrical appliance.
