The circulators are operated via the splash-proof keypad. The implemented
microprocessor technology allows to set and to store different values that
can be indicated on the MULTI-DISPLAY (LED). Three menu keys facilitate
adjusting setpoints, warning and safety functions and menu functions.
The PID temperature control adapts the heat supplied to the thermal
requirements of the bath.
Absolute Temperature Calibration (ATC3) provides a high temperature
stability in the bath. With the 3-point calibration an offset is adjusted at three

Information about the used refrigerants
The Regulation (EU) No. 517/2014 on fluorinated greenhouse gases applies to all systems
which contain fluorinated refrigerants and replaces (EC) 842/2006.
The aim of the Regulation is to protect the environment by reducing emissions of fluorinated
greenhouse gases.
Among other things it regulates the emission limits, use and recovery of these substances. It
also contains requirements for operators of systems which require / contain these substances
to function.
Under Regulation 517/2014, the operator of a system of this nature has the following duties:
• The operator must ensure that the equipment is checked at regular intervals for leaks.
• These intervals depend on the CO2 equivalent of the system. This is calculated from the
refrigerant fill volume and type of refrigerant. The CO2 equivalent of your system is
shown on the model plate.
• The operator undertakes to have maintenance, repair, service, recovery and recycling
work carried out by certified personnel who have been authorized by JULABO.
• All such work must be documented. The operator must keep records and archive them
for at least five years. The records must be submitted to the relevant authority on
request.
Refer to the text of the Regulation for further information.
