Note There are standard and Volatile Organic Chemical (VOC) HEPA
filters available. Be certain to install the correct filter for the given
application. See Section 8.
Caution Handle the HEPA filter very carefully as the filter media can be
easily damaged. Do not touch the filter media during installation.
1. Remove the filter from the shipping box.
2. Remove the plastic coating from the filter and inspect the filter for any
visible signs of damage.
3. Install the filter as shown in Figure 1-9.
4. The default HEPA filter replacement reminder was set at the factory
for 6 months. See Section 3 to change the timer value.
Caution To avoid damage to the incubator, do not operate the unit
without the HEPA filter in place. If higher RH is needed and CLASS 100
air quality conditions are not required, use the restrictor plate instead of
the HEPA filter in order to maintain proper air flow.
1. Install the side ducts with the tabs facing
into the center of the chamber with
their slots up. There are no right side or
left side ducts, simply rotate one of
them to fit the opposite side. Tilt the
side ducts as they are placed in the
chamber so the tops fit into the top air
duct, then guide them into the vertical
position. Figure 1-10 shows the duct as
it would be oriented for the right side of
the chamber.
2. Referring to Figure 1-10, note that there
is no difference between left and right
side shelf channels.
