The shipping carton should be inspected upon delivery. When received,
carefully examine for any shipping damage before unpacking. If damage is
discovered, the delivering carrier should specify and sign for the damage
on your copy of the delivery receipt.
Open the carton carefully making certain that all parts are accounted for
before packaging materials are discarded. After unpacking, if damage to
any of the contents is found, promptly report it to the carrier and request a
formal damage inspection.
Important Failure to request an inspection of damage within a few days
after receipt of shipment absolves the carrier from any liability for damage.
Call for a damage inspection promptly.

Pallet Hold-down
Shipping Brackets
Location
Install the Cabinet
Stand-off Bolts
To secure the console shaker to the shipping pallet, hold-down brackets are attached to slots in both sides of the cabinet. The brackets are fastened to the wood pallet with lag screws (Figure 1-2).
Install the shaker on a firm, level surface in an area free of dust and dirt. To allow for lid opening, the back of the shaker must be at least 4 ½ inches from the wall. As the electrical plug is the “mains disconnect” for the unit, the electrical wall outlet must remain accessible at all times.
To maintain the 4½ inch minimum distance between the rear of the unit and the wall to allow for unobstructed lid opening, two ¼-20x7” bolts are included in the parts bag.
Screw the bolts into the threaded holes on the back of the shaker cabinet (Figure 1-3). The bolts should be screwed in by hand to the limit of the threads. Further tightening is unnecessary. Put the protective rubber caps, also supplied in the parts bag, over the heads of the bolts.

Installation
Chamber Drain
Condensate Drain
A drain is provided in the bottom of the chamber for convenience when cleaning or removing spills (Figure 1-4). A clear vinyl hose and plastic valve is connected to the drain and accessed by removing the front grille assembly and the lower front panel. The grille is removed by gently pulling it off. It is held in place by six push-in type retainers.
To remove the cabinet panel located in back of the grille, remove the six Phillips screws; three on the top and three on the bottom. It may also be necessary to loosen the two left side Phillips screws which hold the foot pedal assembly to the shaker frame.
A 1/4” stainless steel condensate drain is located on the back of the shaker to remove any water that may collect in the air ductwork. Refer to Figure 1-5.
Figure 1-5. Drain Location
Foot Pedal
The lid of the console shaker is counterbalanced for ease of opening and closing. A foot pedal on the lower right of the front of the cabinet is also provided for operator convenience and ready access to the chamber.

Installing the Platform
Note If your platform is already installed, skip this section and continue to next section.
Caution Remove the shipping bracket and install the shaker platform before plugging in or attempting to operate the unit.
s
After removing the orbital mechanism shipping bracket and installing the platform, remove this protective decal from the control panel to begin shaker operation.
Figure 1-6. Warning Decal
Figure 1-7. Shipping Bracket
To protect the shaker’s orbital mechanism during shipment, a sheet metal shipping bracket (Figure 1-7) is installed and must be removed before the unit can be operated. Using a 7/16” and 9/16” hex wrench, remove the three 1/4” and the single 3/8” screws. Retain this hardware for future shipping.
This shaker accommodates either a 5/16” nominal heavy-duty, 29.5” wide x 18” front-to-back platform.
All shaker platforms are attached to their orbital mechanisms with six 1/4­20 hex socket flathead screws Grade 8. These screws are hardened and should not be exchanged with any other screw type. The 5/32” hex socket wrench, included with the shaker, must be used when attaching the platform. Refer to Figure 1-8.

Each Flask Clip up to 6.0 liters in size comes with a metal spring that must be installed onto the clip. For flask clips through 500 ml, insert the end of each spring into the holes at the top of the clip leg (Figure 1-11).
1-6 Orbital Shaker Thermo Scientific
Figure 1-11. Clip Mounting Screw Figure 1-12. Clip Components
The 2 liter, 2.8 liter, 4 liter, 5 liter, and 6 liter Flask Clips use two sets of metal springs and rubber spring tubes. On these larger clips, the springs are installed by hooking their ends together as illustrated in Figure 1-12. The upper spring and spring tubes should be installed prior to mounting the clip to the platform. The lower spring and spring tubes, however, are placed around the bottom of the clip legs after the flask clip is fastened to the platform.
Note that the rubber spring tubes are placed between the clip legs.

Flask clips can be attached anywhere on the platform and flasks can be inserted into any flask clip as the counter-balanced design of these shakers compensates for unbalanced loads.
The flask clips are supplied with the proper screws and can be attached to the platform with a standard Phillips screwdriver or the screwdriver provided with the unit.
Figures 1-11 and 1-12 illustrate the installation of the flask clips. Note that clips for 1, 2, 2.8, 4, 5, and 6 liter flasks use five screws. The 250/300ml flask clip has an adhesive-backed flask cushion pad that is installed on the flat base of the clip body. A hole is provided in the pad for the mounting screw.

Model SHKE435HP and SHKE436HP shakers transmits= time, RPM and temperature information one minute after power is first applied to the unit, then every 60 minutes thereafter unless the shaker receives either a <Ctrl><Q> or a <Ctrl><S>.
The shaker’s microprocessor responds to two commands from the remote:
<Ctrl><Q> (XON)
The shaker will immediately transmit time, speed, and temperature data upon receiving a <CTRL><Q> and will reset the 60 minute data transmission interval timer.
<Ctrl><S> (XOFF)
The shaker will stop serial data transmission upon receiving a <Ctrl><S> until a <Ctrl><Q> is received or power is cycled.
An internal SPDT relay is provided to monitor alarms and is connected by a RJ-11 (telephone style) jack on the rear of the cabinet. The remote alarm provides NO (normally open) and NC (normally closed) output. Figure 1­16 identifies the pin contacts and may be wired to a central remote alarm location or to an independent alarm system. Figure 1-15 identifies the pin contacts. Figure 1-18 shows the location of the Remote Alarm Connector.
Lid Security Lock
A modular to modular cable (Stock No. 190388) and an RJ-11 telephone style terminal converter (Stock No. 190392) or equivalent may be used to convert the remote alarm output to a screw terminal connection. Refer to Figures 1-16 and 1-17.
To protect the contents of the shaker or prevent tampering or unauthorized access, a security lock is located on the right side of the lid (Figure 1-18). Two keys for this lock are in the parts package attached to the outside of this unit when shipped.

Section 2 Operation
Figure 2-1. Front View
Model SHKE435HP and SHKE436HP shakers are microprocessor­controlled incubated orbital console shakers designed to accommodate a wide variety of flasks, test tubes and other glassware. The control system is easily programmed and stores the user-defined time, temperature and speed settings in battery-supported memory that remain even when the shaker is turned off and unplugged.
The platform speed controller continuously adjusts for line voltage fluctuations and provides smooth transitions with consistent control. The circuitry is designed to slowly bring the platform up to speed and down to a stop to prevent liquid splashing from flasks or test tubes.
An insulated lid with viewing port is counter-balanced for easy opening by hand or foot pedal. A safety interlock requires that the lid be closed for the drive motor, circulating fans and heating elements to operate.
Caution It may take up to one minute to bring the platform up to full speed. Never leave the shaker unattended when starting it.
Caution Make sure all flasks and test tube racks are firmly seated in the clips and check the security of the flask clip and platform attachment screws monthly.
Caution Do not operate the shaker at maximum speed without a load.

Control Panel Operation
The control panel on these units has a liquid crystal display and eight operating buttons which are identified by word and symbol. During programming, the up and down arrows increase and decrease the numerical values of time, platform speed, or temperature. Press and hold either arrow to cause the values to scroll in that direction; hold for more than five seconds to increase the scrolling speed.
When changing the system configuration, the down arrow advances the display to the next screen while the up arrow returns the display to the previous screen. Pressing the Time, RPM or Temperature button selects the parameter above it to be changed, while the up and down arrows increase and decrease the numerical values, respectively, or toggle between two different options. Pressing and holding either arrow will cause the values to scroll in that direction; holding for more than five seconds will increase the scrolling speed.
The START button begins platform operation as defined by the Time and Speed setpoints, while the STOP button halts the platform. Chamber temperature control begins upon power-up as defined by the Temp setpoint.
The alarm indicator and alarm silence button complete the shaker control panel. When in alarm, the unit sounds an audible warning and flashes the three red indicators. Depending upon the error detected, pressing the Silence button turns off the audible alarm. However, the three red indicators continue to flash until the alarm condition is corrected. For most alarms, the audible warning will sound again in about fifteen minutes if the condition persists.
The alarm features are discussed in more detail in the “Shaker Alarms” section of this manual.

Section 3 Maintenance
The Model SHKE435HP and SHKE436HP shakers use a brushless DC motor and oversized, permanently-lubricated bearings, requiring no maintenance.
Gas Springs
Platform and Cabinet
Cleaning
Control Panel
Cleaning or Replacing
Air Filter
The gas springs should be checked periodically, and ideally every six months. The opening force, as measured from the front lip from a closed position, should be below 100 N (22.5 lbf) maximum. If the force is above this value, the gas springs should be replaced. If a force measurement is not possible, the gas springs should be replaced every two years.
The anodized brushed aluminum platform and powder-coated steel cabinet surfaces can be cleaned with common laboratory materials. However, liquids should not be allowed to enter the shaker cabinet from under the platform. All spills should be cleaned up immediately. If necessary, remove the platform. Follow ‘Installing the Platform’ procedure in Section 1 when re­installing the platform.
The control panel has sealed push buttons and a liquid crystal display. It may be cleaned with a mild detergent and dried with a soft cloth.
The air filter is located behind the grille on the front of the cabinet. The grille is held in place by six press-in type retainers and is easily removed by grasping it by the edges and pulling it off.
The air filter is held in place by four retaining springs (Figure 3-1) and is easily removed. It may be washed in water with a mild detergent and dried between two lint-free towels.

Warning Only qualified service personnel should perform this procedure. s
Warning Remove and lock-out electrical power when working on or near
the relay control tray and heating element connectors. Allow sufficient time for the heating elements to cool before reaching into that area.
A manual reset circuit breaker is located between the heating element electrical connectors on the side of the air plenum. (Figures 4-7 and 4-8) The breaker can be reset by removing the front grille and reaching over the relay tray.
After the console cabinet is in place and leveled, with the platform installed, turn the unit on and set the speed to 300RPM. Kneeling in front of the console, lightly touch the lower left and right corners of the cabinet. If one side seems to vibrate more than the other, raise or lower the corner support leg using the 3/4” open end wrench supplied in the parts bag. Continue this “fine tuning” until the vibrations are reduced as much as possible.

Calibrate Speed (RPM)
To remove the pulleys from their shafts, use a 1/8” Allen wrench to remove two set screws from the belt groove of the larger pulley; use a 5/16” Allen wrench to remove the single set screw from the belt groove of the smaller pulley.
When replacing the pulleys, seat the larger pulley completely against its baseplate. The smaller pulley, however, is installed with 0.300” space between it and the baseplate.
An external calibrated speed measuring device can be used to adjust the actual platform speed so that the unit setpoint speed matches the external device measurement. Calibration of the platform speed is performed at the factory at 250 RPM. To change the actual platform speed, open the Configuration menu by pressing the down arrow, up arrow, and the Silence button, and then the down arrow twice, in the sequence shown at right.
The screen at right appears on the display.
Then press the Speed button beneath RPM.
The value shown on this screen is the present Speed setpoint. Using the up and down arrows, increase or decrease the platform speed until the reading on an independent, accurate speed measuring device matches the Speed setpoint.
When finished, press any of the three buttons (Time, Speed, or Temp) to save the new setpoint value and return to the previous screen, or press nothing for about 15 seconds to save the new setpoint value and return to the Operating Screen.

4. Set the shaking speed setpoint to 75 RPM.
5. Start the unit and allow a minimum of 2 hours stabilization of cabinet and flask liquid.
6. Enter Calibration mode by pressing the down arrow, the up arrow, the Silence button. Then press the down arrow twice. The screen at right will appear on the display:
7. Press the Temperature button beneath Temp.
8. Using the up and down arrows, increase or decrease the temperature value to match the independent, accurate temperature measuring device.
9. When complete, press the Time, Speed, or Temp button to save the setting. The display will return to the Calibrate - RPM Temp screen. (Or, if nothing is pressed for about fifteen seconds, the display will return to the Operating Screen and the setting will be automatically saved to memory.)
10. Allow the cabinet to re-stabilize for 1 hour. Recheck temperature. If necessary, return to Step 6 until no additional adjustments are needed.
11. Temperature calibration is now complete. Remove calibration equipment and resume use.

Specifications
Installation category (overvoltage category) defines the level of transient overvoltage
1 which the instrument is designed to withstand safely. It depends on the nature of the electricity supply and its overvoltage protection means. For example, in CAT II which is the category used for instruments in installations supplied from a supply comparable to public mains such as hospital and research laboratories and most industrial laboratories, the expected transient overvoltage is 2500V for a 230V supply and 1500V for a 120V supply.
2 Pollution Degree describes the amount of conductive pollution present in the operating evironment. Pollution Degree 2 assumes that normally only non-conductive pollution such as dust occurs with the exception of accasional conductivity caused by condensation.
