    (formerly ZH 1/119 laboratory guidelines issued by the employers’ liability insurance association) (for Germany). BINDER GmbH is only responsible for the safety features of the unit provided skilled electricians or quali- fied personnel authorized by BINDER perform all maintenance and repair, and if components relating to chamber safety are replaced in the event of failure with original spare parts.
  • Page 11: Intended Use

    DANGER Electrical hazard. Danger of death. ∅ The unit must NOT become wet during operation or maintenance. The temperature test chambers have been produced in accordance with VDE regulations and were rou- tinely tested in accordance to VDE 0411-1 (IEC 61010-1). CAUTION The inner chamber, the door window and the access ports will become hot during operation.
  • Page 12: Unit Description

    MK is regularly equipped with an Ethernet serial interface for computer communication. In addition, the BINDER communication software APT-COM (option) permits networking up to 30 units and connecting them to a PC for controlling and programming, as well as recording and representing temperature data.

    Second-hand units are units that have been used for a short time for tests or exhibitions. They are thor- oughly tested before resale. BINDER guarantees the technically flawless state of the chamber. Second-hand units are marked as such with a sticker on the unit door. Please remove the sticker before commissioning the unit.
  • Page 16: Guidelines For Safe Lifting And Transportation

    Without the pallet the unit is in imminent danger of overturning. • Permissible ambient temperature range during transport: -10°C / 14°F to +60°C / 140°F. You can order transport packing and pallets for transportation purposes from BINDER service. Storage Intermediate storage of the unit is possible in a closed and dry room.
  • Page 17: Installation And Connections

    • Permissible ambient humidity: 70 % r.H. max., non-condensing. When operating the chamber at temperature set-points below ambient temperature, high ambient humid- ity may lead to condensation on the unit. • Installation height: max. 2000 m above sea level. When placing several units of the same size side by side, maintain a minimum distance of 250 mm be- tween each unit.
  • Page 18: Start Up

    CAUTION Danger of incorrect power supply voltage. Damage to the equipment. Check the power supply voltage before connection and start-up. Compare the power supply voltage with the data indicated on the type plate. See also electrical data (chap. 18.4). To completely isolate the unit from the power supply, you must disconnect the power plug. Install the unit in a way that the power plug is easily accessible and can be easily discon- nected in case of danger.
