P a g e C-TICK The equipment referred to here complies with requirement of AS/NZS 1044:1995 electromagnetic interference (EMI). INSTALLATION (Refer to Unpacking Page 2) Place the equipment in a well-ventilated area, on a firm level surface and ensure that a suitable power supply is available.
P a g e EXPLANATION OF CONTROLS The controls are located in a control enclosure above the door. MAIN SWITCH This is a combination power switch and circuit breaker, when pressed this switch allows power to be supplied to the controls and circulating fan if applicable. Incorporated in the face of the switch is a ’MAINS ON’...
P a g e ELECTRICAL - POWER LEAD A removable mains power lead with a three pin plug and right angle female IEC socket is supplied for connection between the male IEC socket located at the incubator (top left side) and a ten (10 Amp General Purpose Outlet (G.P.O.) OVER TEMPERATURE INDICATION All Eurotherm 3216 controllers are fitted with an automatic over temperature alarm.
P a g e Operating Guidelines for a Eurotherm 3216 Timer/Programmer. The Eurotherm 3216 digital temperature control can be used either as a simple set point control, where the operator sets the temperature and the incubator controls at that temperature. Or it can be operated as a program control where the temperature ramps from one temperature at a set rate to a second temperature, and then dwells at that temperature for a set period of time.

P a g e OPERATING THE 3216 PROGRAM: The multiple set point program is made up of 4 ramp/dwell segments of “TGSP 1 - 4” (Target set point), “RMP 1- 4” (Ramp to target temperature in ºC/hour), “DWEL 1 – 4” (Dwell at target temperature for “x”...

Use the raise or lower keys to set the parameters shown below. TSP.1 (Target set point 1) RMP.1 (Ramp rate 1) Note with RMP.1 = OFF the temperature will rise...

P a g e | 14 Use the “Scroll” key to step through to the last parameter. The screen will show “PV.OFS”. Use the up or down keys to enter an offset of +1.0ºC. Use the “Home” key to return to the original display: You will now notice that the +1.0ºC calibration has been added to the incubator temperature.
