• Do not cover or obstruct the fresh air or exhaust vents in the unit housing.
• Avoid condensation, e.g. after transport or change of location. Should condensation exist, wait
until the moisture has evaporated completely before connecting the CO
source and powering up.
Notice
Humidity
After transport or storing under humid conditions a drying-out process must be performed.
During the drying-out process the equipment cannot be assumed to meet all the safety
requirements of the IEC 61010-2-010 standard. The drying-out period is 2 hours.
• Consider installing a dedicated upstream circuit breaker per Incubator to avoid the failure of
multiple devices in case of an electrical fault.

3.2 Room Ventilation

When CO

/N
is supplied, the work space of the incubator is slightly pressurized. The pressure

is released through the pressure compensation opening into the operating room.
Pressure compensation and any opening of the glass door/gas-tight screen during the operation of
the device will release very small quantities of CO
ventilation must be capable of carrying the released gas safely off into the open.
In addition, heat dissipating from the device during continuous operation may cause a change in
the room climate.
• Therefore, the HERA
ventilation.
• When several devices are to be placed in the same room, additional ventilation may have to be
provided as necessary.
• Do not install the device in room recesses without ventilation.
• The room ventilation should be a technical ventilation that complies with the requirements of
DGVU information 213-850 (Guidelines for laboratories, Germany) or some other suited
ventilation system with appropriate capacity.

3.3 Space Requirements

Notice
Make sure that power sockets remain freely accessible at all times!
To allow a rapid disconnection of power in case of an emergency, make sure that power
outlets remain freely accessible at all times!
When installing the device, make sure that the installation and supply connections are freely
accessible.
The control box on the rear panel of the device may serve as a spacer to adjacent objects. The
side distances given are minimal distances.
To protect the CO
