5.4 Incubation at sub-ambient temperatures
(SI600C only)
The connected chiller unit should be switched on
when it is required to incubate at around
ambient temperature or below. Above these
temperatures the chiller unit should be turned
off. The chiller coolant temperature should be
set at the required incubator temperature -15°C
and within its own recommended limits. For
example if an incubator temperature of 15°C is
required, the chiller coolant should be set to
0°C. To obtain the specification quoted the
coolent flow rate should be a minimum of 9 l/
min. The recommended operating pressure is 1.0
to 2.0bar. The maximum safe pressure is 4.0bar.
When using the chiller, check the condensate
collection container at regular intervals and that
the condensation outlet tube is not blocked.
Note that hazardous substances used within the
incubator could remain within the condensation
trap. The condensate should be disposed of in
the same manner as the substances used within
the incubator i.e. in a safe manner in compliance
with environmental legislation.
It is recommended that after a period of
prolonged use at low temperature the chiller unit
is turned off and the unit is allowed to run at
maximum temperature overnight to ensure that
any moisture within the unit is dried out.*
*Note that during the drying-out process the SI600C cannot be
assumed to meet all the safety requirements of 61010-1.
5.5 USB Connectivity
Your incubator has capability to connect to a PC
via USB for long term tracking of the incubator
temperature, whilst left overnight for instance.
Remove the waterproof cap from the USB port
on the incubator and connect the included cable.
Connect the other end of the cable to a free
USB port on your PC. The latest version of our
PC software is available for download from
www.stuart-equipment.com. Once downloaded,
select run the program and follow the on screen
commands.
6. Maintenance, servicing
and repair
WARNING: Ensure the unit is disconnected
from the mains electricity supply by
removing the mains power lead before
attempting maintenance or servicing.
This equipment does not require routine
servicing. The only maintenance required is to
clean internal and external surfaces with a damp
cloth and mild detergent. Spillages or splashes
should be cleaned up straightaway after isolating
the unit from the mains electricity supply. Allow
the unit to dry completely before operating
again.
When using the SI600C with a chiller unit:
❖ Check the condition of the tubing on a
regular basis.
❖ If the tubing or coolant needs replacing, do
not connect or disconnect the tubing until
the coolant is at room temperature.
❖ Avoid spillage of coolant when connecting or
disconnecting tubing by disconnecting the
top tube (Outlet) first to allow the coolant to
drain.
❖ If any of the tubes are blocked, do not
attempt to unblock them by inhaling or
blowing on the tubing. Replace the tube.
6.1 Repairs and support
Any repairs or replacement of parts MUST be
undertaken by suitably qualified personnel.
Only spare parts supplied or specified by
Cole-Parmer or its agent should be used.
Fitting of non-approved parts may affect the
performance of the safety features designed
into the instrument.
