    5. CO₂ Incubator Operation 5.1 Power switch Turn on the power switch. The digital LED will display current temperature and CO₂% in the chamber. 5.2 Setting temperature Press the "TEMP SET" key, then, the LED screen will flash and display current programmed temperature. Set up the desired temperature by pressing UP (▲) or DOWN (▼).
  • Page 9 CO2 gas supply control To apply a new value a. Press and hold “CAL/SET” for 10 seconds. Then, LED will be flickering as below. Channel 1 is for adjusting the calibration of the main chamber temperature. Press UP (▲) by the difference measured from the set value and the value measured by precision thermometer or thermocouple.
  • Page 10 Channel 4 is for adjusting the CO2 density. Press UP (▲) by the difference measured from the set value and the value measured by precision analyzer. Press DOWN (▼)by the difference measured from the set value and the value measured by precision analyzer. Ex.) If the measured CO2 value is 5% and Display shows 4%, then press up to set to 1%.
  • Page 11: Orbital Shaker Operation

    Three minutes after the temperature and the CO2 density have reached the desired setting, all alarm systems are activated. (If the temperature or CO2 does not reach the set point, the alarm system will not be activated.) If the user would like to disable these alarms, the alarm can be set to the “OFF”...
  • Page 12 6.3 Platform Installation The Orbi-Shaker includes a flat non-slip platform for low speed operation with many common vessels, including trays flasks and dishes.
