INTRODUCTION
Please read this manual carefully before using the PhO2xBox and familiarise yourself with all aspects of using the workstation. The Baker Company (Baker) or Ruskinn Technology Ltd (Ruskinn) does not accept responsibility for accidents to personnel or damage to the PhO2xBox workstation resulting from incorrect use.
The PhO2xBox comprises of a Gas Controller and a Cell-Culture Chamber has been specifically designed and developed to meet the requirements of all laboratories.
The system has built in gas control with Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide sensors to enable constant monitoring of the atmosphere. Hypoxic conditions are created using Nitrogen (N2), Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Compressed Air (O2) (or 25% Oxygen in Nitrogen) to achieve the desired atmosphere. The user can select the Oxygen concentration from 0.1% to 20.9%, and Carbon Dioxide concentrations from 0.1% to 30.0%.
Many unique features of the PhO2xBox workstation are covered in detail in this manual. It is recommended that the user be fully conversant with the instruction and procedures, and that the operator familiarises themselves with all aspects and functions of the system before it is commissions to maintain optimum performance.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please read this manual carefully and familiarize yourself with all aspects of the Cell-Culture Chamber System. The System comprises a Gas Controller and a Cell-Culture Chamber. Baker and/or Ruskinn does not accept responsibility for accidents to personnel or damage to the Cell­Culture Chamber System resulting from incorrect use. The mains appliance coupler and plug are the AC mains supply isolation device and must be easily accessible when installed. In case of emergency disconnect the Gas Controller from the AC Mains Outlet. Ensure that the connecting cable is not squeezed or bent when the System is being installed or moved. All installation work and adjustments to the System must be carried out by qualified personnel. Work performed by persons with insufficient technical knowledge may adversely affect the performance of the system or cause physical injury or damage to the equipment. All servicing and repairs must be carried out by a qualified customer service engineer. Only genuine spare parts must be used. All gas cylinders must be adequately secured before connection to the System.
CAUTION: Asphyxiation Risk
The PhO2xBox uses Nitrogen (N2) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) as part of normal use with the volume released externally is inconsequential. In the event of a leak or malfunction this gas release may become excessive. DO NOT OPERATE this unit in a SMALL ENCLOSURE such as a small room or walk­in closet. An accidental release of Nitrogen or Carbon Dioxide could create an asphyxiating atmosphere in a small space.
If the equipment is not use in a manor specified by the manufacture, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Failure to adhere to these safety instructions could cause serious injury and will invalidate the workstation warranty. Ruskinn technology limited accepts no responsibility for any accident, injury or loss caused by unsafe operation of the workstation.

PHO2XBOX OVERVIEW
Background
The System comprises a Cell Culture Chamber , which comes in two sizes (Small and Large) and different colours (Black & Transparent), and a Gas Controller. The Gas Controller is connected to the Cell Culture Chamber. The Cell Culture Chamber can hold cell culture flasks and 6, 12, 24 or 96 well plates. The gas concentration of the Cell Culture Chamber can be changed automatically by using the touchscreen on the Gas Controller.
Hypoxic conditions are created inside the Culture Chamber by using Nitrogen (N2), Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and laboratory air (which is sucked into the Gas Controller via an Air pump). The user can select the Oxygen concentration from 0.3% to 20.0%, and the Carbon Dioxide concentration from 0.3% to
20.0%. The Cell Culture Chamber is well-sealed so it can reach the desired culture conditions quickly. Built in Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide sensors enable constant monitoring of the atmosphere inside the Cell Culture Chamber.
The Cell Culture Chamber can be placed into a CO₂ incubator, CO₂/O₂ incubator or Physoxia/Hypoxia
workstation.

Once chamber has been selected the main menu is then displayed with the currently active chamber displayed in the top left corner.
Figure 27: Multi chamber version main screen
Atmosphere Control Screen
Pressing the “Atmosphere Control” bar on Screen 2 will open up the settings screen shown in Screen
3.
Figure 28: Screen 3 - Atmosphere Control Screen
21
O₂ and CO₂ set point can be changed by pressing O2 SET POINT or CO2 SET POINT. A pop-up will appear for the new setting to be selected, as shown in Screen 4. Press Enter once the desired value of O2 is selected.
Figure 29: Screen 4 – Level SET POINT Screen
Repeat for CO2.
Once O₂ and CO₂ set-points have been selected press the START button in the bottom left of the screen to start the gas control.
22
Re-setting the O2 and CO2 value during operation
To re-set the value during operation, press the “stop” button, change the value, and press the “start” button. The new value will now become the Set Point.
Figure 30: Screen 5 – Atmosphere Control Screen
Hypoxic Cycle Menu Settings
The Hypoxic Cycle menu is accessed from Screen 2 to allow for dynamic changing of the Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide levels over fixed time periods. Screen 6 shows the initial screen display for continuous cycling for up to 4 set-point.
Figure 31: Screen 6 – Hypoxic Cycle Menu Settings
The user can set hypoxic cycle on the left side of screen 6. The timing values define how long the Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide levels are maintained for once they have been achieved. This means that there is a time period between the steps that cannot be set as it is dependent on the difference between the set-points within the gas control software.
Pressing on any of the values will bring up a dialogue box to enter the required setting. If only 2 values are required for the cycling then set step 1 and 2 as required, then set step 3 times period to 0 minutes with the O₂ and CO₂ set-points the same as step 2.
Once the setting is correct then press the start button to begin the cycling. At this point the start button will change to a Stop button. The continuous cycling will stop by pressing the Stop button. The left side of the screen is the current status of hypoxic cycle.
23
Data Trend Log
The Data Trend Log screen can be accessed from the LOG button on screen 6.
Screen 7 shows the Trend Log display. The earliest recorded data will be displayed. The window can be scrolled through on the control screen. To view previous data, the USB is to be removed and connected to a computer. The USB can capture approximately 6 months of data.
Delete: Press delete button and the data will disappear from the system.
USB Save: Press USB Save button and the data log will downloaded to a USB.
Figure 32: Screen 7 – Trend Log
Engineer Mode Screen
To set the control parameters, enter the Engineer Mode screen. Entry to the Engineer Mode screen is available when the time shows 29s-30s or 59s-00s. Double click on the corner of the top right of the atmosphere control screen, and then you will enter the engineer screen. Press the value, and a pop-up will appear for the new setting to be selected, then press “save” button and “back” button, and you will return to the running mode.

Parameter Ranges and Meanings
Offset: range is 0.1-1.0%, when the set point and current value difference is less than offset the unit enters the intermittent adjustment mode.
Deadband setting: range is 0-0.5%, for example when the deadband setting is 0.2% and O2 set point is 5.0%, when the current value is 4.8%-5.2%, no gases will be injected to adjust the concentration.
Switch on: range 1-20s, means injecting time when the unit enters the intermittent adjustment mode.
Switch off: range 1-20s, means rest time when the unit enters the intermittent adjustment mode, for example if set switch on at 2s and switch off at 10s, the Gas Controller will inject gas at 2s and rest at 10s.
Recording time: Range 1-10s, means record the set time interval between 1 and 10 seconds. For example, set recording time 2s, means it will record once every 2 seconds.
Date and time: to change the date and time, press “setting time” button, and then enter a windows
screen, choose the date and time, press back to return to the running mode.
25
