Service
Symptoms and Possible
Causes (continued)
4-2 Refrigerated Incubator
Temperature variations at set point (poor control):
Excessive ambient temperature variations (see Solution 10)
Compressor Relay failure (see Solution 12)
No air circulation in chamber; inoperative fan (see Solution 1)
RTD Temperature Probe Location (see Solution 5)
Ice buildup on evaporator coils (see paragraph on "Defrosting")
RTD Temperature probe (see Solution 3, Step D and/or Solution 4).
Power Supply PCB Assembly (see Solution 3)
Does not reach a high set point temperature:
No air circulation in chamber; inoperative fan (see Solution 1)
Low line voltage, less than 110V (see Solution 9)
RTD Temperature Probe (see Solution 3, Step D and/or Solution 4).
Power Supply PCB Assembly (see Solution 3)
Overcharged compressor (see Solution 11)
Differences between Temperature Set and Digital Temperature Readout:
(see performance figures, page 3)
RTD Temperature Probe (see Solution 3, Step D and/or Solution 4).
Malfunctioning Power Supply PCB assembly (see Solution 3)
Takes an extremely long time to reach high temperature set point:
No air circulation in chamber; inoperative fan (see Solution 1)
Low line voltage, less than 110V (see Solution 9)
Power Supply PCB assembly (see Solution 3)
Overcharged Compressor (see Solution 11)
