REQUIREMENTS FOR INSTALLATION
Do not use the unit in an area where there is flammable or explosive gas.
Never use the unit in an area where there is flammable or explosive gas. The unit is
not explosion-proof. An arc may be generated when the power switch is turned ON
or OFF, and fire/explosion may result.
Explosive gas
Flammable gas
Always ground the unit.
z Connect the grounding cable to your ground conductor or ground terminal.
z Do not forget to ground the Oven, to protect you and the unit from electrical shock
in case of power surge.
z Do not connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, or by means of a lightning rod or
telephone line. A fire or electrical shock will occur.
NOTE: The oven is for the 220V use. It has not a power plug.
Choose a correct power distribution board.
z Choose a correct power distribution switchboard or receptacle that meets the
Supply connections for the oven
Install the Oven on a level area.
oven’s rated electric capacity.
Electric capacity AC 200 V, single phase 16A
z Do not connect the oven to an outlet that differs from the above specifications
because a fire or electrical shock will occur.
z Request the supply connection for the 200V specifications from a licensed
electrician.
z Failure to have this operation complete by certified personnel will cause a fire or
electrical shock during Oven operation.
z Do not installation the oven on a non level surface. This will cause hazards to the
operator and create problems during actual operation.

z Do not install the oven in a place where:
♦ Flammable gas or corrosive gas is generated.
♦ Ambient temperature exceeds 35°C.
♦ Ambient temperature fluctuates violently.
♦ There is direct sunlight.
♦ There is excessive humidity and dust.
♦ There are constant vibrations.
z Keep the following clearance around the oven.

After installed, you should:
z It may cause injure to a person if this oven falls down or moves by the
earthquake and the impact, etc..
z To prevent, take measures that the unit cannot fall down.
z Secure the unit by putting the stoppers on the casters.

Handling of power code.
z Do not use the power cord if it is bundled or tangled. If it is used in this manner, it
can overheat and fire may be caused.
z Do not process, bend, wring, or stretch the power cord forcibly. Fire or electrical
shock may result.
z Do not put the power cord under the desk, chair, etc., or through an object. Fire
or electrical shock may be caused.
z Do not run the power cord next to heating equipment such as a heater. The
cover of the cord may melt and fire or electrical shock may result.
z When the power cord is damaged (exposure of the core wires, disconnection,
etc.), turn off the power key right immediately, then turn off the earth leakage
breaker and the main power. Contact customer service for a replacement
immediately. If this procedure is not followed, fire or electrical shock may be
caused.
Caution in setting shelves
z Do not use any shelves but the attached ones.
If it is used in this manner, the oven cannot occasionally regulate temperatures
properly.
z Put the attached shelves on the shelf brackets fitted to the chamber when you use
the oven.
9
Precautions in handling
Substances that can be used
z Never use explosive substances (shown on page 34), flammable substances
Do not put the foreign substances in the oven.
Caution in taking out samples
When you open the door during working at the high temperature.
Do not touch heated parts.
Do not climb on the oven
Do not put anything on the oven
(shown on page 34) and substances that include explosive or flammable
ingredients in the unit. Explosion or fire may occur.
Do not put a foreign substances such as metals or flammable substances in the
opening of the unit (ventilation hole and exhaust port, etc.). If this procedure is not
followed, fire, electrical shock or burn may result.
If the foreign substances enter the unit, turn off the earth leakage breaker
immediately and contact a service technician for inspection. If this procedure is not
followed, fire, electrical shock or burn may result.
During and immediately after operation, the internal surfaces of the chamber and the
door are extremely “HOT." To prevent injury, take out the samples when the
chamber has cooled down or wear gloves while the chamber is still hot.
Do not touch the internal surfaces of the chamber and the door when you will open
the door, because they are extremely hot.
To open the door while the chamber is still hot may cause the malfunction of a fire
detector if it is installed near the oven.
Do not touch the door during or immediately after operation. Severe burning injury
may be caused due to the high temperature.
Do not climb on top of the oven because it will fall down and break.
Failure to observe this caution may cause injury to a person.
Do not put anything on top of the oven because they will fall and result in injury to a
person.
10
Caution about the temperature range.
Use the oven in the range of 40°C to 210°C.
When you use the oven for the first time
During the initial operation, the oven may occasionally generate an odor especially
when high temperatures are reached. This odor is normal and does not signal a
problem with the oven. The adhesive on the insulation melting causes the nature of
the odor.
About the temperature in the chamber
Temperature display indicates the sensor temperature installed in the unit, however it
does not always correspond to the temperature of the sample when the sample
volume is very large or when the temperature is on the increase.
Caution about a drenched sample
z When using a very wet sample, try to drain it as much as possible before putting it
in chamber.
Caution about a powdery sample and the loading of samples
There are times when a powder sample is scattered by the sudden decompression
operation or purge operation. When performing decompression or purge, open the
valve very slowly.
It occasionally takes a long time before the chamber reaches the target temperature if
the camber is congested with samples or a sample with the large specific heat is in it.
In such cases, reduce samples. Moreover, note that the temperature display
occasionally unsettle when you process an exothermic sample.
Distribute samples
z Each shelf can carry a uniform load of 15 kg (33 lb.). When you place samples
on a shelf, distribute them evenly over the shelf area.
z If a shelf is congested with samples, the oven occasionally cannot regulate
temperatures properly. To ensure the oven’s temperature accuracy, there should
be open space of at least 30% on each shelf.
Never use corrosive samples
Most parts are made of stainless steel (SUS304). However, strong acid occasionally
corrodes even stainless steel. Besides this, the silicone rubber packing is also
vulnerable to acid, alkali, oil and halogens' solvents
11
Do not place any samples on the bottom of the chamber
z Do not place any samples on the bottom of the chamber to heat,
because it affects the temperature control of the oven.
z Always put the samples on the attached shelves. Place sample so that

the sample.
During a thunder storm
During a thunderstorm, turn off the power key immediately, then turn off the
earth leakage breaker and main power. If this procedure is not followed,
fire or electrical shock may be caused.
In case of power failure
Once the power supply has been cut off due to power failure, and then the
power supply is restored, the oven will resume running.
When you open and shut the door
Do not put your hand either face near the door when you open and shut
the door. Failure to observe this caution may result in injury because the
door hits your hand or face.
