Note on second-hand chambers (Ex-Demo-Units): Second-hand chambers are chambers that were used for a short time for tests or exhibitions. They are thoroughly tested before resale. BINDER ensures that the chamber is technically sound and will work flawlessly. Second-hand chambers are marked with a sticker on the chamber door. Please remove the sticker be- fore commissioning the chamber.
Location of installation and ambient conditions Set up the chamber on a flat, even and non-flammable surface, free from vibration, and in a well- ventilated, dry location and align it using a spirit level. The site of installation must be capable of support- ing the chamber’s weight (see technical data, chap.
Installation and connections Electrical connection The chambers are supplied ready for connection. They come with a fixed power connection cable of at least 1800 mm / 70.87 in in length. Nominal voltage ± 10% at the Model Power plug Current type indicated power frequency 230 V at 50 Hz M 53, M 115, M 240...
Start up After connecting the electrical supply (chap. 4.1), turn on the chamber via the main power switch (2). Warming chambers may release odors in the first few days after commissioning. This is not a quality de- fect. To reduce odors quickly we recommend heating up the chamber to its nominal temperature for one day and in a well-ventilated location.
Programming can be done directly through the keypad of the controller or graphically through the APT- COM™ 4 Multi Management Software (option, chap. 11.1) specially developed by BINDER. Performance after power failures After the power returns, the chamber continues to function in the original operating mode it was in previ- ously before an actual power failure had occurred.
Controller MB1 settings Selection of the menu language The display program controller MB1 controls the temperature inside the chamber.

Selecting between set-point ramp and set-point step Temperature set-points always refer to the start of a program section, i.e., at the beginning of each pro- gram section the entered temperature set-point is targeted. During program section operation, the tem- perature gradually passes to the set-point entered for the next program section. By appropriate planning of the program section timing, you can enter all kinds of temperature transitions.

CAUTION Use of inappropriate plug. Danger of inflammation. Use only the supplied plug to close the exhaust duct. For drying purpose, please remove the plug in order to permit dissipation of the generated vapor, which would lead to condensation in the inner chamber. 11.9 Inert gas connection with mostly gas-tight version (option for M 53 and M 115) With this option the chamber is additionally sealed, so the loss when introducing inert gases is de-...

Inert gases in high concentrations is hazardous to health. They are colorless and almost odorless and therefore practically imperceptible. Inhalation of inert gases can cause drowsiness up to respiratory ar- rest. When the O content of the air decreases below 18%, there is risk of death from lack of oxygen. Any gas that might escape has to be led out via good room ventilation or a suitable exhaust system.
Ensure all maintenance work is conducted by licensed electricians or experts author- ized by BINDER. Ensure regular maintenance work is performed at least once a year. The warranty becomes void if maintenance work is conducted by non-authorized personnel.
