Preparations
5.2. Bath fluids
Caution:
Carefully read the safety data sheet of the bath fluid used, particularly with
regard to the fire point!
If a bath fluid with a fire point of 65 °C is used, only supervised operation is
possible.
Water:
The quality of water depends on local conditions.
Due to the high concentration of lime, hard water is not suitable for
temperature control because it leads to calcification in the bath.
Ferrous water can cause corrosion - even on stainless steel.
Chloric water can cause pitting corrosion.
Distilled and deionized water is unsuitable. Their special properties cause
corrosion in the bath, even in stainless steel.
Recommended bath fluids:

Operating procedures
6.7. Safety installations according to IEC 61010-2-010
Check the safety installations at least twice a year! See page 13.
6.7.1. Excess temperature protection
Warning:
The excess temperature protection should be set at least 25 °C below the fire
point of the bath fluid used.
In the event of wrong setting there is a fire hazard!
We disclaim all liability for damage caused by wrong settings!
This safety installation is independent of the control circuit. When the
temperature of the bath fluid has reached the safety temperature, a
complete shutdown of the heater and pump is effected.
The alarm is indicated by optical and audible signals (continuous
tone) and on the LED-DISPLAY appears the error message "Error
14".
Setting range: 0 °C to 170 °C
Using a screwdriver turn the setting screw to the desired value.
Recommendation:
Set the excess temperature protector at 5 to 10 °C above the
working temperature setpoint.
6.7.2. Low liquid level protection
This safety installation is independent of the control circuit.
If the low liquid level protection device is triggered, a complete
shutdown of the heater and circulating pump is effected.
The alarm is indicated by optical and audible signals (continuous
tone) and on the LED-DISPLAY appears the error message "Error
01".
Turn off the unit with the mains switch, refill bath fluid and turn
the unit on again!
Warning:
For refill always use the same bath fluid type that is already in the bath.
Bath oils must not contain any water contaminants! Explosion hazard at higher
temperatures!
Recommendation:
Refill bath oils only at a bath temperature below 70 °C!

7. Troubleshooting guide / Error messages
EH
+
Whenever the microprocessor electronics registers a failure, a complete
shutdown of the heater and circulating pump is performed. The alarm
light " " illuminates and a continuous signal tone sounds.
The LED temperature display indicates the cause for the alarm in form of
a code.
Press the key to quit the audible signal.
The circulator is operated without bath fluid, or the liquid level is
insufficient.
Replenish the bath tank with the bath fluid.
Tube breakage has occured (insufficient filling level due to excessive
bath fluid pumped out). Replace the tubing and replenish the bath
tank with the bath fluid.
During the self-test after switch-on a short-circuit is registered
between pin 2 and pin 4 of the control cable or the control cable is
interrupted during operation.
Reconnect the cable or eliminate the short-circuit.
Cable of the working temperature sensor interrupted or short-
circuited.
Defect of the working or excess temperature sensor.
Working temperature and excess temperature sensors report a
temperature difference of more than 35 K.
Error in A/D converter
The excess temperature value lies below the working temperature
setpoint.
Set the excess temperature to a higher value.
Cable of the excess temperature sensor interrupted or short-circuited.
After eliminating the malfunction, press the mains power switch off and
on again to cancel the alarm state.
If the unit cannot be returned to operation, contact an authorized
JULABO service station.

9. Cleaning / repairing the unit
Caution:
Always turn off the unit and disconnect the mains cable from the power
source before cleaning the unit.
Prevent humidity from entering into the circulator.
Electrical connections and any other work must be performed by qualified
personnel only.
Cleaning
For cleaning the bath tank and the immersed parts of the circulator,
use low surface tension water (e.g., soap suds).
Clean the outside of the unit using a wet cloth and low surface
tension water.
The circulator is designed for continuous operation under normal
conditions. Periodic maintenance is not required.
The tank should be filled only with a bath fluid recommended by
JULABO. To avoid contamination, it is essential to change the bath
fluid from time to time.
Repairs
Before asking for a service technician or returning a JULABO
instrument for repair, please contact an authorized JULABO
service station.
When returning the unit:
Clean the unit in order to avoid any harm to the service
personnel.
Attach a short fault description.
When returning a unit, take care of careful and adequate
packing.
JULABO is not responsible for damages that might occur from
insufficient packing.
