Installation procedures
Mains connection
Connecting to the Power Supply Source
1. Before connecting the incubator to the power source, check to see if the power supply
voltage corresponds with the specifications on the nameplate on the front of the incubator.
If the voltage (V) and current (A) ratings given are not as required, do not connect the
incubator to the power source!
2. Connect the IEC connector to the socket at the rear of the incubator.
3. Route the power cord along a path that does not cross exhaust air piping or passageways
and aisles.
With stacked devices, keep the power cord away from hot spots on the other incubator in
the stack.
4. Connect the protection-earthed plug of the power cord to a correctly protection-earthed
and earth leakage circuit breaker fused power socket.
5. Make sure the power cord is not subjected to tensile or compressive force.

To allow a rapid disconnection of power in case of an emergency, make
sure that power outlets remain freely accessible at all times!
When taking the incubator into operation for the first time allow some
time before switching on for stabilization to avoid condensation forming
on live parts.
Keep the power outlet accessible!
