This operating manual has been designed to help you gain an understanding of the principles of operating and possibilities of our circulators. For optimum utilization of all functions, we recommend that you thoroughly study this manual prior to beginning operation.
Operating manual Operating manual Use according to intended purpose JULABO circulators have been designed for temperature application to specific fluids in a bath tank. The units provide pump nozzles for temperature application to an external system (loop circuit). JULABO circulators are not conceived for direct temperature application to food and luxury articles or pharmaceutical and medico-technical products.
Operator responsibility – Safety recommendations The products of JULABO Labortechnik GmbH warrant a safe operation if installation, operation and maintenance is carried out according to common safety regulations. This section informs you about potential dangers that may arise from operating the circulator and also mentions the most important safety precautions.
