Function Stirring; Maintenance And Cleaning - IKA IKAMAG rct basic Handbuch

3-wire connecting cables:
Here the test current circuit can also be produced in the terminal
head of the contact thermometer (connect plug pins 2 and 3).
A 3-wire cable with the required bridge is available (accessories).
The rated temperature is set on the contact thermometer by means of
the rotary magnetic head, whereby the upper edge of the traveling nut is
the reference point on the rated value scale.
The required surface temperature of the heating plat is preselected on
the temp-rotary knob of the instrument.
If the temp-rotary knob is set to the maximally adjustable temperature, the
heating-up takes place as rapidly as possible, yet the medium temperatu-
re overshoots the rated value set on the contact thermometer.
If the temp-rotary knob is set to twice the rated value (e.g. with a rated
value of 60 °C the temp-rotary knob is set to 120 °C), the result is good
compromise between rapid heating-up and overshooting.
If the temp-rotary knob is set precisely to the rated temperature, the medi-
um does not reach the rated temperature owing to a drop in temperature
between heating plate and medium.
The rated temperature is seting on the ETS-D.
When using the ETS-D, there is no overshooting of the medium tempera-
ture owing to an „aiming-off allowance"-technique.

Function Stirring

The funktion stirring is started and stopped by its corresponding switch.
The motor speed is set on the rotary knob „mot" with its dial from 1 to 10.
If the motor is switched on, it runs-up to the speed set on the rotary knob,
and the LED „mot" beside the imprint „Mot" shines green.
The dial from 1 - 10 conforms with a speed range from 50 .1100 1/min.
When idling, the speed is 1100 1/min at maximum setting of the
rotary kn ob (right-hand stop).
RCT B 1097
If the viscosity increases during thr process, the speed drops a litt-
le. If the viscosity decreases, e.g. due to adding thinly fluid media,
the speed increases a little. By a corresponding resetting of the
rotary knob, both of these cases can be balanced, as long as the
torque does not exceed its maximum.
Please note that mains fluctuations within the permissible tole-
rance also effect minor fluctuations of the speed.

Maintenance and Cleaning

The IKAMAG RCT basic is maintenace-free. It is subject only to
the natural wear and tear of components and their statistical failu-
re rate.
When ordering spare parts, please give the manufacturing
number shown on the type plate, the machine type and the
name of the spare part.
Please send in equipment for repair only after it has been cleaned
and is free from any materials which may constitute a health
hazard. Use only cleansing agents which have been approved by
IKA to clean IKA devices. To remove use:
Dyes isopropyl alcohol
Construction materials water containing tenside / isopropyl alcohol
Cosmetics water containing tenside / isopropyl alcohol
Foodstuffs water containing tenside
Fuels water containing tenside
For materials which are not listed, please request information from
IKA. Wear the proper protective gloves during cleaning of the devi-
ces.
Electrical devices may not be placed in the cleansing agent for the
purpose of cleaning.
Before using another than the recommended method for cleaning
or decontamination, the user must ascertain with the manufactu-
rer that this method does not destroy the instrument.
