1.5 General safety instructions on installing and operating the cabinets
With regard to operating the cabinets and to the installation location, please observe the local national
safety regulations that apply for laboratories or in a room similar to a laboratory.
Datacolor is only responsible for the safety features of the cabinet provided skilled electricians or qualified
personnel authorized by Datacolor perform all maintenance and repair, and if components relating to
cabinet safety are replaced in the event of failure with original spare parts.
When the cabinet is installed, operated, cleaned, decontaminated, adjusted or set up incorrectly, there is
a risk of malfunction which could cause harm to human beings and material damage to the equipment
and samples.
Therefore the cabinet should only be installed, operated, cleaned, decontaminated, adjusted and set up
by suitably qualified persons.

∅ Do NOT introduce any substance into the cabinet which is combustible or explosiv e at
working temperature.
∅ NO explosive dust or air-solvent mixture in the inner chamber.
Any solvent contained in the charging material must not be explosive or inflammable. I.e., irrespective of
the solvent concentration in the steam room, NO explosive mixture with air must form. The temperature
inside the chamber must lie below the flash point or below the sublimation point of the charging material.
Familiarize yourself with the physical and chemical properties of the charging material, as well as the
contained moisture constituent and its behavior with the addition of heat energy and hum i dity.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 10/126
Familiarize yourself with any potential health risks caused by the charging material, the contained moisture constituent or by reaction products that may arise during the temperature process. Take adequate
measures to exclude such risks prior to putting the cabinet into operation.
DANGER
Electrical hazard.
Danger of death.
∅ The cabinet must NOT become wet during operation or maintenance.
The cabinets were produced in accordance with VDE regulations and were routinely tested in accordance
to VDE 0411-1 (IEC 61010-1).
During and shortly after operation, the temperature of the inner surfaces almost equals the set-point.
CAUTION
The glass doors, the glass door handles, the inner chamber, and the light cassettes
(cabinet with lights) will become hot during operation.
Danger of burning.
∅ Do NOT touch the glass doors, the inner surfaces, the light cassettes or the charging
material during operation.
WARNING

net door is open.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 11/126
1.6 Intended use
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ sample conditioning cabinets are suitable for exact conditioning of harmless
materials. 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.
Any component of the charging material must NOT be able to release toxic gases.
Other applications are not approved.
The cabinets are not classified as medical devices as defined by the Medical Device Directive
93/42/EEC.
Following the instructions in this operating manual and conducting regular maintenance work
(chap. 20) are part of the intended use.
DANGER
Explosion or implosion hazard.
Danger of poisoning.
Danger of death.
∅ Do NOT introduce any substance combustible or explosive at working temperature into
the cabinet, in particular no energy sources such as batteries or lithium-ion batteries.
∅ NO explosive dust or air-solvent mixture in the inner chamber.
∅ Do NOT introduce any substance which could lead to release of toxic gases.
The charging material shall not contain any corrosive ingredients that may damage the machine components made of stainless steel, aluminum, and copper. Such ingredients include in
particular acids and halides. Any corrosive damage caused by such ingredients is excluded
from liability by Datacolor.
WARNING: If customer should use a cabinet 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 cabinets, if this is feasible.
In case of foreseeable use of the cabinet there is no risk for the user through the integration of the cabinet into systems or by special environmental or operating conditions in the sense of EN 61010-1:2010.
For this, the intended use of the cabinet and all its connections must be observed.
1.7 Operating instructions
Depending on the application and location of the cabinet, the operator of the cabinet must provide the
relevant information for safe operation of the cabinet in a set of operating instructions.
Keep these operating instructions with the cabinet at all times in a place where they are
clearly visible. They must be comprehensible and written in the language of the employees.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 12/126
1.8 Measures to prevent accidents
The operator of the cabinet must observe the following rule: “Betreiben von Arbeitsmitteln. Betreiben von
Kälteanlagen, Wärmepumpen und Kühleinrichtungen“ (Operation of work equipment. Operation of refrigeration systems, heat pumps and refrigeration equipment) (GUV-R 500 chap. 2.35) (for Germany).
The manufacturer took the following measures to prevent ignition and explosions:
• Indications on the type plate
See operating manual chap. 1.4.
• Operating manual
An operating manual is available for each cabinet.
• Overtemperature monitoring
The cabinet is equipped with a temperature display, which can be read from outside.

1.9 Resistance of the humidity sensor against harmful substances
The following list of harmful substances refers only to the humidity sensor and does not include any other
materials incorporated in the cabinet or prohibited substances in relation to explosion protection.
Some gases - especially clean gases - do not have any influence on the humidity sensor. Others do have
a very small influence, whereas others may influence the sensor to a larger extent.
• The following gases do not influence the sensor and the humidity measurement: Argon (Ar), carbon
dioxide (CO
• The following gases do not or to a minor extent influence the sensor and the humidity measurement:
Butane (C
• The following gases do not, or to a minor extent influence the sensor and the humidity measurement,
provided that the indicated loads are not exceeded:
),helium (He), hydrogen (H2), neon (Ne), nitrogen (N2), nitrous oxide (N2O), oxygen (O2)
2
), ethane (C2H6), methane (CH4), natural gas propane (C3H8)
4H10
These values are to be considered as approximate values. The sensor resistance largely depends on
the temperature and humidity conditions during the time of exposure to harmful substances. Avoid
simultaneous condensation. Tolerated error of measurement: ± 2 %r.H. The maximum work place
threshold limit value is one that can be regarded as harmless for humans.
• Vapors of oil and fat are dangerous for the sensor because they may condensate at the sensor and
thus prevent its function (insulating layer). For similar reasons it is not possible to measure smoke
gases.

2. Cabinet description
The Datacolor CONDITIONER™ sample conditioning cabinet is equipped with a multifunctional microprocessor display controller with 2-channel technology for temperature and humidity plus a digital display
accurate to one-tenth of a degree resp. 0.1% r.H. With its comprehensive program control functions, the
display program controller MB2 permits the high precision performance of temperature and humidity cycles.
The sample conditioning cabinet with multifunctional microprocessor display controller MB2 is available in
two different types:
• without light unit
• with light unit
The sample conditioning cabinet is designed for exact conditioning of harmless materials such as paper,
textiles, plastics, building materials, to condition the samples at fixed temperature and humidity, so as
ensure no change in color of the samples occurs due to varying temperature and humidity
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. Furthermore, it permits simulating exactly and over long periods constant conditions for other applications such as sample conditioning for material testing of paper, textiles, plastics, building materials, etc.
A resistance humidifying system humidifies the air. For this purpose, use deionized (demineralized) water. The option BINDER Pure Aqua Service allows using the cabinet with any degree of water hardness.
The cabinet with lights unit is equipped with “Bio Vital” fluorescent tubes installed in two light cassettes.
They illuminate very homogeneously the racks below them. Both light cassettes are permanently connected. The cable length permits easily removal to replace the fluorescent tubes. Control is effected via
the MB2 controller. Light is dimmable in 1% steps.
The inner chamber, the pre-heating chamber and the interior side of the doors are all made of stainless
steel V2A (German material no. 1.4301, US equivalent AISI 304). The housing is RAL 7035 powdercoated. All corners and edges are also completely coated.
The inner chamber is closed by a glass door that enables the samples to be viewed for a short time without disturbing the climate in the inner chamber.
All cabinet functions are easy and comfortable to use thanks to their clear arrangement. Major features
are easy cleaning of all cabinet parts and avoidance of undesired contamination.
The efficient program controller is equipped with a multitude of operating functions, in addition to recorder
and alarm functions. Programming of test cycles is easily accomplished via the modern MB2 touch
screen controller. The cabinet comes equipped with an Ethernet serial interface for computer communication. In addition, the BINDER communication software APT-COM™ 3 permits networking up to 30
chambers and connecting them to a PC for controlling and programming, as well as recording and representing temperature and humidity data. For further options, see chap. 23.5.
The cabinet is equipped with two safety devices to protect the unit, its environment and the samples inside from forbidden temperature excesses:
• Electric safety controller
The sample conditioning cabinet is equipped with an electric over temperature safety device class 3.1
acc. to DIN 12880:2007. It is called a “safety controller”. It serves to protect the charging material
against extensive high temperatures. The safety controller is electrically independent from the main
temperature controller and takes over control when a selectable set point is reached.
• Temperature fuse
The sample conditioning cabinet is equipped with a temperature fuse, class 1 acc. to DIN 12880:2007.
It serves to protect the unit and prevents danger caused by considerable defects. If a temperature of
about 110 °C is reached, the temperature fuse switches off the unit permanently.

4.2 Wastewater connection
Fasten the wastewater hose to the wastewater connection “OUT” (7) on the rear of the cabinet (olive ∅
14 mm). Observe the following points:
• You can use a part of the supplied water hose as a drainage hose. In case another hose is used, it
has to be permanently resistant against at least 95 °C / 203 °F.
• Mount the wastewater hose with a maximum positive inclination of 1 m and a maximum total length of
3 m.
• Protect the cabinet end of the drainage hose with one of the supplied hose clamps.
• Reliably prevent sucking back of wastewater. The end of the wastewater hose must not be immersed
in liquids. This can be ensured e.g., by free discharge.
Waste water is collected in an internal can with a volume of approx. 0.5 liters. It i s pumped off
only when required, thus there is no continuous waste water flow.
Protect the waste water supply with the supplied hose clamps.
4.3 Freshwater supply
Connect the waste water pipe before connecting the cabinet to a freshwater pipe or filling the
freshwater can (option, chap. 4.5).
You can supply the cabinet with freshwater via a water pipe or by manually filling a freshwater can (option, chap. 4.5).

Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 24/126
Assembly:
Screw the hose burst protection device onto a water tap with a G¾ inch right turning thread connection.
The connection is self-sealing. Establish the connection between the safety kit and the cabinet with a part
of the supplied hose. Protect both ends of the hose by the supplied hose clamps.
We recommend connecting the hose as the last step in order to avoid twisting the hose while screwing on
the safety kit.
Open the water tap slowly in order to avoid actuating the hose burst protection device.
Figure 9: Assembly of the connection kit
Protection principle of the hose burst protection device:
Whenever a strong water flow of about 18 l / min. occurs, e.g. caused by a burst water hose, a valve au-
tomatically cuts off the water supply, which can be heard as a clicking noise. The water supply now remains shut until it is manually released.
Release of the reflux protection device:
In case the burst protection device has interrupted the water supply, first find the reason and remove it as
necessary. Close the water tap. Release the valve by a half left-turn of the upper knurled part. You can
hear the release of the valve as a clicking noise. Tighten the burst protection device against the water tap
by a right turn. Open the water tap slowly afterwards.
Maintenance of the assembly of the hose burst protection device:
Calcification can impair valve function. We recommend an annual inspection by a skilled plumber. The
plumber should demount the safety kit to check the valve by hand for functi on, calcification or blockage.
CAUTION
Danger of calcification.
Impairment of valve function.
Have a plumber inspect the valve annually.
Remove calcifications by citric acid or acetic acid solutions.
Continue by testing the function and tightness of the mounted cabinet
Check: Quickly open the water tap while there is no cabinet connected – the valve should cut off the water flux without any delay.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 25/126
4.3.2 Manual fresh water supply via external freshwater can (option)
If no house water connection with suitable water is available, you can manually supply water by filling a
