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).
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. Three menu keys facilitate adjusting setpoints, warning and safety functions and menu functions.
Temperature- and time-dependent processes can be stored and executed using the
integrated programmer.
The control electronics including “ICC - Intelligent Cascade Control” automatically
adjust the heat supply to the thermal requirements of the bath.
The TCF - Temperature Control Features give the user access to all important
temperature control parameters. This means full control of the control behavior at all times and the ability to manually adjust or adapt the controls to the specific application.
Absolute Temperature Calibration (ATC3) provides high temperature stability at all
points 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 entire 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 VFD COMFORT-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 shutdown 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.

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.

5.3. Temperature applicat i on 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.
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 tubings, and secure with tube clamps.
Attach the tubings 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.

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:
Bur ning 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).

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.
Recommended maximum filling level with water as bath fluid: 30 mm below the tank r im
Recommended maximum filling level with bath oils: 40 mm below the tank rim
After f illing, immerse the samples in the bath or place the lid on
the bath, in case the opening is not to be used.
The circulator provides an early warning system for low level
(description – please refer to page 28) that may be triggered when changing samples in the bath.
Draining
Turn the unit off with the mains switch.
Place the heating circulator near the rim of the table. Use a
suitable vessel as recipient for the bath fluid.
Unscrew the drain plug on the front of the bath tank to drain the bath.

For applications near the ambient temperature, the cooling coil (20) must be connected to the water mains.
Using tubing, connect the cooling coil to the tap water supply,
and lead the tap water in a sink through the return connector.
A specific water flow rate of 750 ml/minute (15 °C) is sufficient
to compensate for the characteristic temperature.
For applications near ambient temperature (20 °C), the cooling
water temperature should at least be 5 °C below the working temperature.
Controlled countercooling Use the MVS solenoid valve controller (26) and a solenoid valve (27) for controlled countercooling to reduce tap water consumption.
The circulator recognizes the MVS
