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).

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.

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.

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.
