Introduction please read all the information in this manual before operat- ing the unit. Your Super-Nuova hot plate is a heating plate designed for laboratory procedures requiring precise control of tem- perature. each Super-Nuova model includes a digital dis- play for monitoring temperature. The hot plate is capable of producing accurately controlled top plate temperatures from 1°C through 370°C.
unpacking and Installation unpacking Warning remove your Super-Nuova hot plate from the carton. use a properly grounded electrical Inspect to ensure that the unit has not been damaged outlet of correct voltage and current during shipment. If the unit appears to have sustained handling capacity.
Installation Set the unit on a flat stable surface at least 12" away from combustible materials, and plug the cordset into a proper- ly grounded electrical outlet of correct voltage and current handling capacity.

Be careful to observe the correct polarity of the probe connector when inserting probe.
PeraTIoN using preset programs The Super-Nuova hot plate features the option of pre- setting 4 setpoints into its memory. To program a preset, adjust the heat features to your desired setpoints. press and hold one of the presets and the unit will beep indicat- ing those setpoints have been stored in memory.
PeraTIoN Setting the Timer The timer function on the Super-Nuova can be set to shut off heating. The timer can be set for a desired number of hours (1, 2, 4, 8 or 12) or for a non-specific period of time (Infinity symbol).
PeraTIoN rS232 output an rS232 port is available on the Super-Nuova to output elapsed time and temperature data. The data is printed once every second when the unit is powered on (displays on). a comma separates each piece of data so that it may easily be imported into a spreadsheet as CSv (Comma Separated values).
PeraTIoN using HyperTerminal w/rS232 With HyperTerminal you can store the rS232 output data of a Super-Nuova on a pC. NoTe: other terminal programs that capture rS232 data can be used as well. In order to follow this procedure, you must have: •...
PeraTIoN You will be able to run HyperTerminal with this setup in the future by just double-clicking the icon if you put it on the Desktop. The setup of HyperTerminal is now complete, you can view the past data, but the program will only allow you to see the past 500 lines in its buffer.
Service and Calibration Service Menu The Service Menu has many features that will allow a user to customize their unit. a table of the features available in the Service Menu is given below. The features are given in order of their appearance in the Service Menu when rotating the center knob in a clockwise rotation.
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN over-temperature Set point - Note For most routines, the poWer key This option is only available for units that have heating can be used to return to a previous functionality. The over-temperature Set point is the set menu if desired.
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN Temperature probe Calibration - CaL This section applies only to the calibration of the temperature probe system. The hot plate surface cannot be calibrated. This method is only applicable to units that have heating func- tionality. There are two types of calibration available. The choice of which calibration to choose will depend on the equipment that is available.
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN oil Bath Method of Calibration With the probe connected to the unit, insert the probe connected to the unit to be calibrated into a bath that has stabilized at the desired calibra- tion temperature. allow sufficient time for the probe to stabilize.
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN System Method of Calibration Select an independent temperature probe to be placed in the load, along with the unit tempera- ture probe before continuing with calibration. Select the load to be calibrated, and place on top of the hot plate. Make sure to have probe plugged into the unit and placed in the load.
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN and the display(s) will show the stirring control set point. The speed may be adjusted by using the center knob. The adjustable range is 50 – 999, and also oFF (zero). When the adjustment is completed, press the SeT key under the STIr display to approve the selection.
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN remove your finger from the poWer key. The display will change to oSP. rotate the center knob until the display reads prb. press the SeT key under the HeaT display to accept, and the display will change to oFF. rotate the center knob one position to change the display to on and press the SeT key under the HeaT display again.
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN the display to the method of choice and press the SeT key under either display again. The unit will return to the previous menu. Select another feature to change, or press the poWer key again to return to the off mode. probe Temperature Limit - pL This feature is available for units with heating functionality and is only applicable when using a probe.
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN probe response - pr This feature is available for units with heating functionality and is only applicable when using a probe. The purpose of this feature is to select the minimum time required for a temperature change to be detected before signaling a probe out of Solution error (e03).
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN Therefore the oSP setting would need to be at least 300°C. The probe circuit is also affected by the selection of oSp. Selection of Ul would allow the set point to be unlimited and would not be affected by oSP setting. To modify/view the Set point Limit follow the instructions given below: plug the unit into the appropriate power, but do...
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN a single beep will be heard and you may remove your finger from the poWer key. The display will change to oSP. rotate the center knob until the display reads err. press the SeT key under the display to accept, and the display will change to Clr (re- enable all disabled errors).
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN to change the display to yeS and press the SeT key. The unit has now been returned to the factory default settings. The unit will return to the previ- ous menu. Select another feature to change, or press the poWer key again to return to the off mode.
erVICe aND alIbraTIoN Flash upgrade - FLS This feature is available for all units and is designed to allow a firmware upgrade via rS232 port to be applied without exchanging controls. NoTe: Special software and an rS232 cable are required to complete this proce- dure.
Troubleshooting error Codes errors e01 through e07 are heating errors. error Handler will lock out heating functions if heating error is detected. Stirring functionality is unaffected. If the condition that caused the error is no longer present, pressing the poWer button or unplugging the unit will clear errors e01-e07. y t i .
