1.6 Intended use

The incubators with forced convection BF are suitable for exact temperation of harmless materials. Because of their precise temperature accuracy these devices are especially useful for incubation of cultures at a standard temperature of 37 °C / 98.6 °F. Any solvent content must not be explosive or flammable. A mixture of any component of the charging material with air must NOT be explosive. The operating temperature must lie below the flash point or below the sublimation point of the charging material.

Other applications are not approved.

The incubators with forced convection BF are not classified as medical devices as defined by the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC.

Do NOT use the unit for drying processes when large quantities of vapor would form and result in condensation.

BF (E1) 02/2015 page 12/51

Following the instructions in this operating manual and conducting regular maintenance work (chap. 9) are part of the intended use.

WARNING: If customer should use a BINDER chamber running in non-supervised continuous operation, we strongly recommend in case of inclusion of irrecoverable specimen or samples to split such specimen or samples and store them in at least two chambers, if this is feasible.

The charging material shall not contain any corrosive ingredients that may damage the machine components. Such ingredients include in particular acids and halides. Any corrosive damage caused by such ingredients is excluded from liability by BINDER GmbH.

2. Unit description

BINDER incubators with forced convection BF are equipped with an electronic PID-controller with digital display. The temperature is indicated with an accuracy of a tenth of a degree.

BINDER incubators with forced convection BF are heated electrically and are ventilated by fan-assisted, forced-air circulation. They BF are equipped with a temperature safety device according to DIN12880 (chap. 7).

The APT.line™ preheating chamber system guarantees high level of spatial and time-based temperature precision, thanks to the direct and distributed air circulation into the interior. The fan supports exact attainment and maintenance of the desired temperature accuracy.

The inner chamber, the pre-heating chamber and the inside of the doors are all made of stainless steel V2A (German material no. 1.4301, US equivalent AISI 304). The housing is RAL 7035 powder-coated. All corners and edges are also completely coated.

All unit functions are easy and comfortable to use thanks to their clear arrangement. Major features are easy cleaning of all unit parts and avoidance of undesired contamination.

BINDER incubators with forced convection BF are equipped with a serial interface RS 422 for computer communication, e.g. via the communication software APT-COM™ 3 DataControlSystem (option, chap.

8.2). For further options, see chap. 12.5.

6.4.2 Entering a temperature ramp

Temperature ramps can be programmed in order to extend heating up times. This may be necessary in some cases, in order to prevent temperature stresses in the material during the heating up phase. Temperature ramps should only be used if required. The use of temperature ramps may result in the heating up times being considerably slowed down.

The entry in °C/min or in °F/min meaning the nominal value gradient and limits the maximum temperature increase to this value. Due to the heat and evaporation energy assumed by the drying material, smaller temperature gradients may also result.

A temperature ramp proceeds from the previously entered to a new set-point. The temperature must have adjusted to the start set-point. Enter settings in 3 steps:

1. Enter set-point of ramp start temperature. Let temperature adjust to this set-point temperature.

2. Set the ramp to the desired gradient in °C/min or in °F/min.

You can enter a gradient value from 0.0 up to 1.0. Setting the gradient to 0.0 means ramp function off = maximum heating power. Setting the gradient to another value, e.g., 0.3, means the unit will try to heat up with a speed of 0.3

°C/min. A heat-up rate of 0.4 °C/minute can be regarded as a realistic maximum.

3. Enter set-point (final ramp temperature).

The ramp should only be set if required. The setting “0.0” means ramp function turned off. The unit is being heated at maximum heat output.

12. Technical description

12.1 Factory calibration and adjustment

This unit was calibrated and adjusted in the factory. Calibration and adjustment were performed using standardized test instructions, according to the QM DIN EN ISO 9001 system applied by BINDER (certified since December 1996 by TÜV CERT). All test equipment used is subject to the administration of measurement and test equipment that is also constituent part of the BINDER QM DIN EN ISO 9001 systems. They are controlled and calibrated to a DKD-Standard at regular intervals.

12.2 Definition of usable volume

The usable volume illustrated below is calculated as follows:

A, B, C = Internal dimensions (W, H, D) a, b, c = Wall clearances

a = 0.1 x A b = 0.1x B c = 0.1 x C

= (A - 2a) x (B - 2b) x (C - 2c)

USE

Figure 9: Determination of the useable volume

The technical data refers to the defined usable volume.

Do NOT place samples outside this usable volume. Do NOT load this volume by more than half to enable sufficient airflow inside the chamber. Do NOT divide the usable volume into separate parts with large area samples. Do NOT place samples too close to each other in order to permit circulation between them and

thus obtain a homogenous distribution of temperature.

12.3 Over current protection

Single-phase devices are protected by a miniature fuse against over current, accessible from the outside. The miniature fuse is located at the rear of the chamber below the strain relief of the power cord. The fuse holder is equipped with a fuse clip 5mm x 20 mm. (cUL-Version 6,3x32 mm). The fuse may be replaced only with a substitute of the same ratings. Refer to the technical data of the respective device type.
