Innova Shaker that has been repaired or altered outside the NBS factory without prior authorization from New Brunswick Scientific. For a period of two years (or more) after the shipment date, the Innova warranty will be in effect as long as the shaker has not been in operation for a total of 10,000 hours.
(48.9 cm) above the platform and will accept flasks up to 4 liters. It is equipped with a foot pedal lid lift assist. The Innova 4340 has an illuminated cover that allows up to six grow lamps to be operated manually or by a programmable electronic timer. An auxiliary channel of the electronic timer may be used to program the temperature controller to switch to an alternate setpoint at desired times.
A voltage selector incorporated in the power entry module and a frequency selector switch are used to select the appropriate voltage and frequency. This universal system adapts to worldwide power requirements. Innova 4340 Refrigerated Incubator Shaker • M1193-1056 User’s Guide...

These bearings require no maintenance. 2.6.3 Motor The Innova 4340 Shaker uses a 3-phase brushless ball bearing DC motor. This low profile motor provides high torque along with quiet, efficient operation and low maintenance. It has a rating of 1/8 horsepower.
Refrigeration System The Innova 4340 Shaker is equipped with a 1/5 HP refrigeration system. The condensing unit is hermetically sealed and the evaporating temperature is closely regulated to prevent coil icing. The refrigeration system is automatically started and stopped by the digital control system, based on the temperature setpoint and ambient temperature conditions.
& & The Innova 4340 is a versatile instrument that can be operated in a continuous fashion or set for a timed run. The following section describes set up and installation procedures. Unpacking & Inspection Upon unpacking the unit, inspect it carefully for any apparent damage which may have occurred during transit.
M1193-0073 Leveling The Innova 4340 should be installed on an even surface. The eight feet can be adjusted for leveling, if necessary. Adjust the feet by loosening the locking nuts on the threaded studs attached to the feet, then retightening when the unit is level.
The outside dimensions of the Innova 4340 are: Inches Centimeters OUTSIDE DIMENSIONS Width Depth Height The effective surface area required for operation is: REQUIRED SURFACE AREA Inches Centimeters Width Depth Electrical Connections CAUTION! Be sure to use the following checklist BEFORE making electrical connections.
