    3.0 Temperature Controller If this product is fitted with a temperature controller, instructions are provided separately.
  • Page 13: Operation

    4.0 Operation Operating Cycle The product is fitted with an instrument switch. The switch cuts off power to the controllers and elements. The circulation fan will operate when the instrument switch is on. An optional door switch may be fitted. If so, ensure that the door is closed to operate the fans and heating elements.
  • Page 14: Atmospheres

    Atmospheres When an optional gas inlet is fitted, there is a label near the inlet saying "INERT GAS ONLY". In practice, inert or oxidising gases may be used, but not combustible or toxic gases. The chamber is not gas tight, the gas usage may be high and the chamber is always likely to contain some air.
  • Page 15: Variable Speed Fan (If Fitted)

    Variable Speed Fan (if fitted) If fitted, the variable speed control is fitted in the air circulation fan circuit. A panel mounted rotary dial is used to control the speed. Please note that there is a minimum setting at which the fan motor starts up when the product is switched on.
