Page 27: Operation
OPERATION HEORY OF PERATION Heating When powered, the bead bath heats to and then maintains an operator-selected temperature setpoint. The unit temperature controller senses the temperature of the beads via a solid-state probe located in the front, right corner of the tank. When the controller detects that the temperature of the beads has dropped below the target setpoint, it pulses power to the heating elements inside the bead bath walls and floor. -

Page 33: Validating Application Protocols
OPERATION ALIDATING PPLICATION ROTOCOLS All water bath application protocols should be validated when switching to bead baths. Applications involving large or frozen product containers may take 2 – 3 times longer to achieve the target setpoint than in a traditional water bath due to the high thermal stability of the beads. Bringing the temperature of frozen product up to 4°C before placing in the bead bath can help optimize heat up times. - Page 34 OPERATION 34 | P a g e cascadesciences.com Tel. 503 847-9047...
