JULABO circulators have been designed to control the temperature of specific fluids in a bath tank.
The units feature pump connections for temperature control of external systems (loop circuit).
luxury foods and tobacco, or pharmaceutical and medical products.
Direct temperature control means unprotected contact of the object with the bath
1.1. Description
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 VFD COMFORT-DISPLAY and LCD DIALOG-DISPLAY. Three
menu keys facilitate adjusting setpoints, warning and safety functions and menu
functions.
SL
The integrated programmer allows storing and running temperature and time-
dependent processes.
The control electronics including “ICC - Intelligent Cascade Control“ automatically
adapts the heat supplied to the thermal requirements of the bath.
The TCF - Temperature Control Features allow the user to have access to all
important temperature control parameters. This means: Full control on the control
mode and the chance to manually adjust or adapt control to the specific application.
Absolute Temperature Calibration (ATC3) provides high temperature stability in the
bath. With the 3-point calibration an offset is adjusted at three temperatures to
ensure an accurate temperature pattern at the selected spot in the bath over the full
temperature range.
Electrical connections:
The serial interface, switchable from RS232 to RS485, allows modern process
technology without additional interface.
Connection for Pt100 external sensor for external temperature measurement and
control.
Alarm output for external alarm message or control of JULABO refrigerating baths
or solenoid valve (cooling water).
The electronic module (option) provides 3 further analog connections (alarm input,
standby input, recorder output, programmer input).
The excess temperature protection conforming to IEC 61010-2-010 is a safety
installation independent from the control circuit. This protection can be indicated
and set on the LCD DIALOG-DISPLAY.
The early warning system for low level signals that bath fluid needs to be refilled
before the low level protection conforming to IEC 61010-2-010 causes a complete

openings!
• Keep at least 20 cm of open space on the front and rear venting grids.
• The place of installation should be large enough and provide sufficient
air ventilation to ensure the room does not warm up excessively
because of the heat the instrument rejects to the environment. (Max.
permissible ambient temperature: 40 °C).
For a fault (leakage) in the refrigeration system, the standard EN 378
prescribes a certain room space to be available for each kg of
refrigerant.
The refrigerant quantity is specified on the type plate.

• Do not set up the unit in the immediate vicinity of heat sources and do
not expose to sun light
• Before operating the unit after transport, wait about one hour after
setting it up. This will allow any oil that has accumulated laterally
during transport to flow back down thus ensuring maximum cooling
performance of the compressor.
Only for water-cooled models:
Ensure circulation of cooling water by connecting the tubing to the cooling
water inlet and outlet at the rear of the refrigerated circulator.

5.2. Bath fluids
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.

Caution:
Fire or other dangers when using bath fluids that are not recommended:
Use only nonacidic and noncorrosive bath fluids.
JULABO assumes no liability for damage caused by the selection of an unsuitable
bath liquid.
Unsuitable bath fluids are fluids which, e.g.,
• are highly viscous
(much higher than recommended at the respective working temperature)
• have a low viscosity and have creep characteristics
• have corrosive characteristics or
• tend to crack.
5.3. Temperature application to external systems
Caution: Securely attach all tubing to prevent slipping.
If the circulator is operated without external system, close the pump connector (22)
Temperature application to external, closed systems
The circulator is used for temperature application to external,
closed systems (loop circuit) with simultaneous temperature
application in the circulator bath.
Model combination without HSP booster pump
Pump connection:
• Unscrew the M16x1 collar nuts on the pump connectors with a
19 mm (3/4“) wrench and remove the sealing disks. Using the
collar nuts, screw on the tubing connection fittings (for tubing
8 mm or 12 mm in diameter) delivered with the unit and tighten
firmly. (Pressure pump: 22, suction pump: 21)
• Push on the tubing, and secure with tube clamps.
• Attach the tubing to the connectors of the external closed
system, e.g., an instrument with a pressure-resistant
temperature jacket or a temperature coil, and fasten with tube
clamps to prevent slipping.

Temperature application to external, open systems
The circulator is equipped with both a pressure and suction pump
for external temperature application in open systems.
Differing flow rates of the pressure and suction pumps should be
compensated. To maintain a constant liquid level, the JULABO
„D+S“ Level Adapter is recommended for the external bath tank.
The flow rate of the pressure pump will be then regulated by a
built-in float device. The liquid level may be changed by a height
adjustment on the „D+S“ Level Adapter.
Accessory: „D+S“ Level Adapter Order No. 8 970 410
Important:
The liquid level should be equal in the internal and external

baths (absolute height).
If you take out samples (for example Erlenmeyer flasks) from
the external bath, turn the circulator off with the Start/Stop key.
Backflow safety device
(see page 73)
If the liquid levels in the circulator bath and the external
system are at different heights, overflowing must be
prevented after the power has been turned off.
Flood hazard!
For this reason, solenoid valves for loop circuit or shut-off
valves can be integrated in the loop circuit.
Connect the valve to the connector (13).

At high working temperatures the tubing used for temperature application and cooling
water supply represents a danger source.
A damaged tubing line may cause hot bath fluid to be pumped out within a short time.
This may result in:
• Burning of skin
• Difficulties in breathing due to hot atmosphere
Safety recommendations
• Employ suitable connecting tubing.
• Make sure that the tubing is securely attached.
• Avoid sharp bends in the tubing, and maintain a sufficient distance from
surrounding walls.
• Regularly check the tubing for material defects (e.g. for cracks).

protection.
Wait for a while and open the drain tap to drain the water.
5.4. Filling / draining
Notice:
•Pay attention to the thermal expansion of bath oil during heating to avoid
overflowing of the liquid.
•Do not drain the bath fluid while it is hot!
Recommendation: Temperature range 5 °C to 40 °C
Check the temperature of the bath fluid prior to draining (by switching the unit on
for a short moment, for example).
•Store and dispose the used bath fluid according to the laws for environmental
Filling
Take care that no liquid enters the interior of the circulator.
Remove the bath cover and, if necessary, use a funnel.
Observe the level indication (19b).
• Recommended maximum filling level with water as bath
fluid: 30 mm below the tank rim
• Recommended maximum filling level with bath oils:
40 mm below the tank rim
Special unit with bath opening 28x23 cm
After filling, immerse the samples in the bath, or place the
lid on the bath if the opening is not to be used.
The circulator has an early warning system for low level
(see description on page 37) that may be triggered when
changing samples in the bath.
Draining:
• The drain tap is located behind the venting grid on the
front of the unit, which can be taken off by removing 4
screws.
• Slide a short piece of tube onto the drain connection and
hold it into a container.
• Loosen the drain screw a few turns and drain the unit
completely.
• Tighten the drain tap.
Penetration of ice flakes/water into bath oil
At working temperatures below 0 °C humidity from the atmosphere may
penetrate into bath oil through condensation. This may subsequently
result in the formation of ice flakes, preventing the pump from proper
operation.
For this reason, the bottom of the bath tank provides a groove sloping
down towards the drain tap. Thus water having penetrated into the bath
30
oil gathers in the groove immediately behind the drain tap.
Shut down the refrigerated circulator at a bath temperature of +10 °C.
