1. INTRODUCTION.
1.1. The Bibby Scientific MC810B Digital Controller provides a convenient means of
temperature control, using microprocessor techniques to give ease of operation and
good accuracy. It can be used either in ON/OFF mode with the hysteresis loop
controlling power switching or it can be used as a PID (Proportional, Integrated,
Derivative) controller. Alternatively it may be used simply as a temperature
measuring device.
1.2. Temperature sensing is performed by a plug-in platinum resistance probe. The
sample temperature is displayed on the LED display. This product is suitable for
bench and retort stand mounting or wall mounting using the bracket and screws
provided.
1.3. The MC810B has a short mains output lead with an IEC socket to connect it to the
resistive load. An accessory extension mains lead is available where remote
operation is required (e.g. in a fume extraction unit).
1.4. The MC810B controller must be used in conjunction with a suitable heating or
cooling device e.g. mantle, electric Bunsen or hotplate. For cooling applications
please contact your distributor / suppler or contact Bibby Scientific at the address in
section 10. Customer Support.

3.1. Prevention of Fire and Electric shock.
To prevent a risk of fire or electric shock,
product case without authorisation. Only qualified Service
personnel should attempt to repair this Controller.
Replace fuses only with the type as listed in section, Parts and
Accessories and Technical Specifications. (See fuse type and
rating).
Ensure the Mains Power Supply conforms to rating found on the
data plate located on the base of this product.
Operate this equipment with out connection to earth /
ground. Ensure the mains supply voltage is correctly earthed /
grounded in accordance with current area legislation.
install or remove any heating apparatus from the controller
whilst power is applied.
3.2. General Safe Operating Practice.
Always follow good laboratory practice when using this
equipment. Give due recognition to your company’s safety and
legislative health & safety procedures and all associated legislation
applicable to your areas of operation. Check laboratory procedures
for substances being heated and ensure all hazards (e.g. explosion,
implosion or the release of toxic or flammable gases) that might
arise have been suitably addressed before proceeding. When
heating certain substances the liberation of hazardous gases may
require the use of a fume cupboard or other means of extraction.
Ensure equipment is used on a clean, dry, non-combustible, solid
work surface with at least 300mm suitable clearance all around
from other equipment.
position the product so that it is difficult to disconnect from
the mains supply.
immerse unit in water or fluids.
spill substances onto this unit. If spillage does occur,
disconnect unit from mains supply and follow instructions as
detailed in Section ‘Maintenance’.
To prevent electronic overheat and potential fire
Do not cover this product when connected to the mains power
supply.
It is
recommended to leave any heating apparatus unattended
during operation.
Only use Original Equipment manufacture’s spares and
accessories. Ref Section 11.

5. INSTALLATION.
5.1. Electrical safety and Installation.
5.2. This equipment is designed for safe operation under the following conditions:-
• Indoor use.
• Altitude up to 2000 meters.
• Temperatures between -10°C and +50°C.
• Maximum relative humidity 80% for temperatures up to 31°C decreasing linearly to 50% relative humidity at 40°C.
• Mains supply voltage fluctuations up to ± 10% of the nominal voltage.
• Transient overvoltages typically present on the mains supply. (Overvoltage
category II).
•Applicable rated pollution degree 2.
5.3. This equipment must be earthed / grounded to a fixed earth / grounded mains
socket outlet. The mains supply is to be earthed / grounded in accordance with
current legislation.
5.4. Ensure only the correct rated mains input fuses are fitted. (Where applicable ensure
the correct mains cable fuse if fitted). See Technical Specification, Section 8 of this
Instruction book.
5.5. Check the voltage on the product data label of this unit. Ensure the rating conforms
to your local supply. Only connect to resistive loads = 1500Watts @ 230V~AC or
750Watts @ 115V~AC. Refer to Technical Specification, Section 8 of this Instruction
book.
