SafetyInformation
Your Thermo Scientific Cimarec Hot Plate has been
designed with function, reliability, and safety in mind. It
is your responsibility to install it in conformance with
local electrical codes. For safe operation, please pay
attention to the alert signals throughout the manual.
Warning: These products should be used only under
the operating conditions specified in the Operating
Manual. Always use safe laboratory practices and do
not leave the hotplate in operation while unattended as
product funcionality or laboratory practice failures could
occur that might lead to uncontrolled or excessive
heating of the top surface. Safety procedures (including, but not limited to, unplugging when not in use) and
response plans should be put in place to address the
worst case possibility. If an over-temperature failure
occurs, the top surface temperature could rise to the
maximum temperature (300-540°C depending on your
model’s specification) and remain at that temperature
indefinitely. Under these conditions, the material being
heated on the surface of the hotplate could reach levels in excess of the maximum temperature.
Hot Surface
Hot surfaces alert you to a possibility of
personal injury if you come in contact
with a surface during use or for a period
of time after use.
This manual contains important operating and safety
information. The user must carefully read and understand the contents of this manual prior to the use of
this equipment.
Warnings
To avoid electrical shock, always:
1.Use a properly grounded electrical outlet of
correct voltage and current handling capacity.
2.Disconnect from the power supply prior to
maintenance and servicing.
To avoid personal injury:
1.Do not use in the presence of flammable or
combustible materials — fire or explosion
may result. This device contains components
which may ignite such materials. Not rated
for use in hazardous atmospheres.
2.Use caution when heating volatile materials;
top surface and element can reach the “Flash
Point Temperature” of many chemicals.
These hot plates are not explosion proof. Fire
or explosion may result. Unit contains compo-

SAFETY INFORMATION
nents which may ignite such materials.
3.Keep top surface clean. Use a non-abrasive
cleaner. Alkali spills, hydrofluoric acid spills or
phosphoric acid spills may damage top and lead
to thermal failure. Unplug unit and remove spills
promptly. Do not immerse unit for cleaning.
4.Replace the top immediately if damaged by
etching, scratching or chipping. A damaged top
can break in use.
5.Do not use metal foil on hot plate which may
block air flow. Overheating will result.
6.Check and tighten the removable cord periodically making sure it is secure. If loosened, the
cord could become hot and/or spark and be a
potential fire hazard. If cord appears damaged,
replace immediately. If cord is repeatedly loosened it is recommended to purchase the cord
retaining clip (part number AY1313X1 or
AY1313X2) listed in the Replacement Parts section of this manual.
7.Do not remove or modify grounded power plug.
Use only properly grounded outlets to avoid
shock hazard.
8.Use appropriate hand and eye protection when
handling hazardous chemicals.
9.Gross weight of items placed on top of hot
plates should not exceed 35 lbs. (15.9 kg.) on
the 10” x 10” models, 25 lbs. (11.3 kg) on the 7”
x 7” models, and 15 lbs. (6.8 kg.) on the 4” x 4”
models.
10. “Caution: Hot Top. Avoid Contact.” The top plate
of the unit can remain hot for some time after
use. A “CAUTION - HOT TOP” light will remain
on until top plate temperature cools to below
50°C.
11. Note that the exterior housing will be hot during
and for a period of time after use.

Introduction
Please read all the information in this manual before
operating the unit.
Your Cimarec hot plate is a general purpose heating plate
designed for laboratory procedures requiring precise control of temperature. Each Cimarec hot plate model
includes a digital display for monitoring actual temperature. The hot plate is capable of producing accurately
controlled top plate temperatures from 5°C through 540°C
on all 4" x 4" and 7" x 7" models, and the 5°C through
400°C models on the 10" x 10" models. The temperature
is controlled at the plate surface by an internal sensor.
The top plate on the Cimarec units is solid ceramic, and
is suitable for use with glass or metal vessels.
Your Cimarec hot plate may be used for general purpose
heating applications, including sample preparation, heating reagents, melting paraffin, warming resinous chemicals, content analysis, solvent evaporations, digestions,
media preparation and sterilization, titrations, sand baths,
and microscale chemistry applications.
General Usage
Do not use this product for anything other than its intended usage.
