ATTEnzIOnE Le alte temperature sono pericolose: possono causare ustioni gravi all’utilizzatore e possono causare la combustione di materiale infiammabile. La Techne ha posto particolare cura nel progettare questo strumento, al fine di proteggere gli operatori da eventuali pericoli, ma gli utilizzatori devono prestare attenzione ai seguenti punti: •...
- Page 16 Il fusibile all’interno dell’apparecchio protegge l’apparecchiatura e l’utilizzatore. Tenere presente che gli apparecchi riportanti sulla targhetta 230 V funzionano a 220V. Gli apparecchi riportanti 120V funzionano a 110V. Comunque, in entrambi i casi la velocità di riscaldamento diminuirà approssimativamente dell’8%. 3.

Page 18: Unpacking
TE-10A, TE-10D AnD TU-20D ThErMOrEgUlATOr Before using the thermoregulator make sure you have read this manual carefully. cOnsTAnT TEMpErATUrE bAThs Techne supply a range of liquid baths from 8 to 48 litre which can be fitted with any of the TE-10 or TU-20 thermoregulators. -
Page 19: Set Up
set Up There are two modes of operation for the pump; circulation internal to the bath; circulation external to the bath. For internal circulation the blanking caps on the top of the outlet and return pipes should be securely in place. They screw on and, for safety, they may be tight. For external circulation these need to be removed. - Page 20 5 Begin by securing the bridge piece to the bath. Use the two M4 countersunk stainless screws and screw into the holes in the corners of the bath. Use M4 countersunk screws 6 Locate the thermoregulator above the bridge piece. Toggle the heating element carefully through the clearance hole.
- Page 21 8 If you do not want to use a bridge piece to secure the unit to a bath then you must use a clamp. The clamp bracket fits between the pump legs in the slot provided. Slide the bracket into the slot and use the two screws in the clamp kit to secure the clamp to the unit.
- Page 22 and moulding and use the screw to fit the cooling coil in the slots. Keep the moulding in a safe place in case you need to replace it. Connect a hose from a tap to one end of the coil and from the other end of the coil to drain.
- Page 23 15 A bath that is fitted with a lid or insulating ball blanket gives the best operating conditions. A lid or ball blanket will prevent vapour loss, heat loss and give better temperature control. If an open bath is used above 80°C (ie where steam or other readily condensing vapours are present) the operation of the unit, particularly the digital display on the TE-10D and the TU-20D, may be affected.

- Page 31 Over-temperature indicator If the unit should, for any reason, exceed the temperature set for the over-temperature cut-out, the over-temperature indicator will light. The heater will have been switched off and the unit will begin to cool even if the heater light is on (the light staying on or not depends on which circuit has sensed an over-temperature).

Page 32: After Use
AfTEr UsE When you have finished heating samples, remember that parts of the unit and the samples may be very hot. Take the precautions listed earlier. We recommend that the samples should be allowed to cool to 50°C before being removed from the bath. They will still have to be handled with care. Should you want to remove the unit from the bath, it too should be allowed to cool to 50°C before being removed. -

sETTIng ThE OvEr-TEMpErATUrE cUT-OUT An adjustable over-temperature cut-out is fitted. When the cut-out operates, the heater will stop working and the ‘over-temperature cut-out indicator’ will illuminate. On the TU-20D an audible alarm will sound. The pump will continue working on all units. Over-temperature reset button It should be set to approximately 10°C ABOVE THE OPERATING TEMPERATURE. -
