technical products.

1. Intended use

JULABO recirculating coolers have been designed for temperature application to specific fluids. The pump connections can be used for cooling applications in an external circuit at a constant temperature.



The implemented microprocessor technology allows to set and to store the setpoint that can be indicated on the LED temperature display.

 The PID temperature regulation is used to withdraw heat from the

bath fluid by means of the cooling machine and to automatically regulate the required need.

Health hazards caused by the bath fluid.

JULABO recirculating coolers are not conceived for direct temperature application to food and luxury articles or pharmaceutical and medico-

Direct temperature application means: Unprotected contact of the object with the bath medium (bath fluid).

2. Operator responsibility – Safety recommendations

The products of JULABO ensure safe operation when installed, operated, and maintained according to common safety regulations. This section explains the potential dangers that may arise when operating the circulator and also specifies the most important safety precautions to preclude these dangers as far as possible.

 The operator is responsible for the qualification of the personnel operating the units.  Make sure that the persons who operate the chillers, are trained in this work.  The personnel operating the units should be regularly instructed about the dangers

involved with their job activities as well as measures to avert these dangers.

 Make sure all persons tasked with operating, installing, and maintaining the unit have read

and understand the safety information and operating instructions.

 When using hazardous materials or materials that could become hazardous, the circulator

may be operated only by persons who are absolutely familiar with these materials and the circulator. These persons must be fully aware of possible risks.

3. Handling

 You have received a product designed for industrial use. Nevertheless, avoid strikes to the

housing, vibrations, damage to the operating-element panel (keypad, display), and contamination.

 Make sure the product is checked for proper condition regularly (depending on the

conditions of use).

 Regularly check (at least every 2 years) the proper condition of the mandatory, warning,

prohibition and safety labels.

 Make sure that the mains power supply has low impedance to avoid any negative effects

on instruments being operated on the same mains.

 This unit is designed for operation in a controlled electromagnetic environment. This

means that transmitting devices (e.g., cellular phones) should not be used in the immediate vicinity. Magnetic radiation may affect other devices with components sensitive to magnetic fields (e.g., monitors). We recommend maintaining a minimum distance of 1 m.

 Permissible ambient temperature: max. 40 °C, min. 5 °C.  Permissible relative humidity: 50% (40 °C).  Do not store the unit in an aggressive atmosphere.  Protect the unit from contamination.  Do not expose the unit to sunlight.

3.1. Appropriate operation

Only qualified personnel is authorized to perform configuration, installation, maintenance and repairs of the circulator. Routine operation can also be carried out by untrained personnel who should however be instructed by trained personnel.

3.2. Use

Fire hazard!

The bath can be filled with flammable materials. Fire hazard! There might be chemical dangers depending on the bath medium used. Observe all warnings for the used materials (bath fluids) and the respective instructions (safety data sheets). Insufficient ventilation may result in the formation of explosive mixtures. Only use the unit in

well ventilated areas. The unit is not for use in explosive atmosphere. Only use recommended materials (bath fluids). Only use non-acid and non corroding materials.

When using hazardous materials or materials that could become hazardous, the operator must affix the enclosed safety labels (1 + 2) to the front of the unit so they are highly visible:

Danger area. Attention! Observe instructions. (operating manual, safety data sheet)

Carefully read the user information prior to beginning operation. Scope: EU

Carefully read the user information prior to beginning operation. Scope: USA, NAFTA

3.3. Disposal

This unit contains the refrigerants R134a – at this time considered not to have any negative effects on the ozone layer. However, during the long operating period of the unit, disposal prescriptions may change. So only qualified personnel should take care of disposal.

See the current official journal of the European Union – WEEE directive. Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). This directive requires electrical and electronic equipment marked with a crossed-out trash can to be disposed of separately in an environmentally friendly manner. Contact an authorized waste management company in your country. Disposal with household waste (unsorted waste) or similar collections of

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 CO

refrigerant fill volume and type of refrigerant. The CO 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.
