General notes, safety notes, notes on electrical equipment
and electromagnetic compatibility, as well as
notes on maintenance of the unit are to be found in the
Operating Instructions for the waterbath.
Brief technical description
The shaking device permits controlled shaking of beakers or test tubes in a waterbath.
The shaking device performs a reversing linear movement with a frequency of approx. 35 to 160 strokes
per minute. The shaking speed is controlled electronically and can be adjusted in 10 speed steps. The stroke
is approx. 15 mm.
The ambient conditions for its operation are the same as for the basic units.
Inserting and removing
The bath can be operated without shaking device if required. After the shaking device and the support
basket has been removed, the side panel supplied should be secured to the gable cover by means of the
two screws in orded to ensure optimum sealing of the cover. Fitting the shaking device has to take place
in the reverse order.
Safety note
If the shaking device has to remain in a waterbath that is switched on, it has to remain switched on as
well! The shaking speed can be set to a standstill! When being switched off, the overpressure steam
blockage is out of action and condensate may pass into the housing of the shaking device!

Starting up
Mains supply
The mains cable must be arranged so that it can not come anywhere into contact with hot surfaces of the unit.
Filling the waterbath
In order to protect the stainless steel shaking
device it is necessary to use deionised water as
the thermofluid. The bath must be filled so that
the liquid level is between the two level marks on
the right inside the tank (with the shaking device
carrying its load)!
Note!
Depending on the loading of the shaking device and the shaking speed selected, it is possible
for the bath liquid or the (possibly noxious) shaken liquid to slop over. In that case the
shaking speed or the liquid level have to be suitably adjusted but without going below the
minimum liquid level.
Switching on and setting the shaking speed
The unit is switched on by pressing the push/turn control. The
symbol indicates that the unit is ready
for operation.
Quick stop on overload
The unit incorporates a quick stop on overload as a safety device.
Operation of this safety device can be recognised by the symbol
lighting up.
In this case it is necessary to check whether there is any overloading or whether some object has been
trapped in the system.
After the overload has been removed, the shaking device can be restarted by briefly pressing the SET key
and setting the shaking speed again.
