Locate the chamber in an area out of direct sunlight and away from heating and cooling ducts. The 6010 & 6030 chambers can exhaust 2500 BTU/hr (730 W) and 4000 BTU/hr (1170 W) respectively into the surroundings. -
Page 8: Drain Connection
For personal safety, this chamber must be properly grounded. The Power Cord of this chamber is equipped with a grounded plug which mates with a corresponding outlet to minimize the possibility of electrical shock from the chamber. CARON recommends that the chamber have a dedicated wall outlet. - Page 9 INSTALLATION cont. Control System The control system is comprised of a 1/16 DIN temperature controller. The drawing below shows the control panel (exact controller may vary). The display panel consists of a power switch, refrigeration switch, and a temperature controller. The temperature controller’s unit is degrees Celsius (°C).

Page 12: Controllers
CONTROLLERS The temperature control system is comprised of a single channel, dual output controller. On/off outputs are used to drive heaters and cooling solenoids. An additional controller is used to control the humidity (if that option is ordered). Both controllers are configured and tested at the factory to ensure proper performance. -
Page 13: Options
6010 & 6030 Humidity System A bi-modal humidification system allows for independent humidification and dehumidification. This design provides control over both the humidity injection system and the dehumidification system. This system permits the chamber to respond faster as well as controlling the chamber more efficiently at a constant relative humidity. -

b) Attach the 3/8” ID clear tubing to the outlet of the flow meter. Secure tubing with the hose clamp provided. c) Connect compressed air (either from house air or other compressed air source) to the fitting labeled “air supply inlet”. NOTE: THE AIR SOURCE MUST BE OIL-FREE AND WATER-FREE AND FILTERED TO 10 MICRONS MINIMUM. -

1. Set the flow meter on the dryer assembly to approximately 300 SCFH. Watch the humidity display to see that the % RH is moving down to the specified setpoint. Allow sufficient time for the chamber to stabilize when setting up and making adjustments, especially if the chamber has been running with high humidity levels. - Page 19 There are three factory drilled holes located on the right side of chamber facing the front of chamber. Using the factory supplied screws, screw the recorder to the side of the chamber. Model 6030, 6031, 6032 Model 6010, 6011, 6012 Right side Right side NOTE: Before applying power to the recorder, complete these preliminary preparation tasks to prepare the recorder for operation.
- Page 20 a) Locate the wires fastened to the side of the chamber, these are the temperature and humidity sensor wires. b) Push the button on the recorder door and swing the door open. c) Loosen the captive screw in the chart plate and swing the plate out. Run the sensor wires into the chart recorder through the knock out hole on the recorder.
- Page 21 f) Insert connector with the red and black wires from the humidity sensor to the connector labeled red and black. g) Insert connector with the white, red and red wires from the temperature sensor to the connector labeled white, red and red. h) Close the chart plate and replace the captive screw.
