Operating manual
1. Intended use
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).
JULABO circulators are not suitable for direct temperature control of foods, semiluxury foods and tobacco, or pharmaceutical and medical products.
Direct temperature control means unprotected contact of the object with the bath
medium (bath fluid).
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.

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).
SMART
PUMP
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
shut-down of the main functional elements.
Intelligent pump system: The pump capacity (electronically adjustable via the motor
speed) enables to adapt to varying conditions for internal and external temperature
applications.

• Cooling machine, pump motor and electronics produce intrinsic heat
that is dissipated via the venting openings! Never cover these
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.
> For 0.48 kg of refrigerant R404A, 1 m

• 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
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:

Backflow safety device
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:
L The liquid level should be equal in the internal and external
baths (absolute height).
L If you take out samples (for example Erlenmeyer flasks) from
the external bath, turn the circulator off with the Start/Stop key.
