Location and Assembly
Ensure that the room temperature cannot drop on a cold night. Ideally thermostatically control
the room at between 20 and 25°C (68 and 77°F). Never allow the room temperature to drop below
15°C (59°F) and ensure that the unit cannot be exposed to direct sunlight.
The apparatus must only be used in a well-ventilated room away from potential sources of heat
or ignition. NO SMOKING.
Do not use in a confined location
– see figure 5.0 below. There must be a minimum 30cm free
space to each side and above the unit. (Oxygen concentration in the air around the incubator
may rise
significantly if ventilation isn’t provided or the space around the incubator is confined.
This may create a fire hazard).
Figure 5.0
– Minimum clearance to walls and other surfaces
Remove all electrical devices that are within 90cm of the incubator. Place the incubator at least
90cm away from power sockets. Ensure there are no power sockets or electrical items directly
under the shelf or table supporting the incubator. (Oxygen gas may sink through air and cause
fire in other equipment).
