WARNING: If customer should use a BINDER chamber running in non-supervised continu- ous operation, we strongly recommend in case of inclusion of irrecoverable specimen or samples to split such specimen or samples and store them in at least two chambers, if this is feasible.

  • Page 17: Unit Description

    A highly precise, drift-free CO infrared measuring system in combination with the permanent mixture of gas through a special proprietary gas mixing head developed by BINDER allows precise and con- stant CO concentrations for long periods. This creates optimum growth conditions for cultures. The CO sensor can be removed from the inner chamber by hand and cleaned with suitable detergents if needed.

    Alarm functions 10.1 Alarm functions overview When operational faults occur, the controller triggers visual and audible alarm signals. The LED “ALARM” always flashes when an alarm signal is emitted. A zero-voltage relay alarm output (13) (chap. 10.3) permits transmission of the alarm e.g., to a central monitoring system.

  • Page 49: Zero-Voltage Relay Alarm Output

    10.3 Zero-voltage relay alarm output Collective alarm output via the zero-voltage relay alarm contact The CO incubator is equipped at the rear with a zero-voltage relay output (13) for the temperature and , which permits the transmission of alarms to an external monitoring system in order to monitor and record the alarm signals.

  • Page 50: Safety Controller Temperature Alarm

    C 150 has cooled down. If points 1 to 4 do not reveal the source of the fault, it may be that the unit is faulty. Please contact BINDER Service. 10.5 Temperature tolerance range alarm (high and low temperature) Main controller temperature alarm: The temperature has risen above or fallen below the temperature alarm threshold.

  • Page 51: Door Open

    Turn on the unit again. You can restart normal operation as soon as the requested values have equilibrated. If the same alarm recurs, please contact BINDER Service. 10.6 Door open The open and closed position of the unit door is controlled via the door contact switch. If the door is open, the temperature and CO controls turn off.

  • Page 52: Co Tolerance Range Alarm (Co Over/Under Concentration)

    Open both unit doors for approx. 30 seconds. Respect the precautions when working with CO (chap. 1.6). Normal operation can be restarted, as soon as the requested values have been readjusted. If the same alarm recurs, please contact BINDER Service. 10.8 CO pressure too low The CO primary pressure at the intake valve is less than 0.3 bar / 4.4 psi below the ambient air pressure.

    You need only use an accurate pH indicator or a pH-measuring electrode, which are standard equipment in cell culture laboratories. This method is not suitable for calibrating the BINDER FPI sensor system. This method is based on the acid base equilibrium of the buffer system in the culture media.

    This could happen e.g. while opening or closing the door, cleaning, loading and unloading the unit. BINDER offers a stacking adapter for direct thermal de- coupled stacking of two incubators.

  • Page 59: Avoiding Microbial Contamination

    Avoiding microbial contamination The main types of microbial contaminants in cell and tissue culture are bacteria, fungi, yeast, mycoplas- ma, and viruses. This chapter gives an overview of potential sources of contamination and precautions and measures to eliminate them. 14.1 Cells and media Primary cultures from the original tissue Cells/cell lines from unknown sources or from cell banks: Use only cells of known and tested origin.

  • Page 60: Chamber Design And Equipment Of The Co Incubator C 150

    Condensation in the inner chamber represents a particular risk of contamination. The humidifying sys- tem with water pan with integrated condensation point developed by BINDER is an effective and easy way to ensure high humidity (95 ± 2% r.H.) inside the incubator without any condensation forming on the inner surfaces.

  • Page 61: Handling The Co Incubator C 150

    14.5 Handling the CO incubator C 150 Any manipulation of the CO incubator involves some contamination risks, from installation to opening of the doors and regular cleaning. Installation away from sources of contamination Do not place the CO incubator on the floor or close to windows and doors. Use the optional stand, if appropriate.

  • Page 62: Cleaning, Decontamination / Disinfection, And Sterilization

    We recommend using the neutral cleaning agent Art. No. Art. Nr. 1002-0016 for a thorough cleaning. Any corrosive damage that may arise following use of other cleaning agents is excluded from liability by BINDER GmbH. CAUTION Danger of corrosion. Damage to the unit.

  • Page 63: Decontamination / Chemical Disinfection Of The Co

    For chemical disinfection, we recommend the disinfectant spray Art. No. 1002-0022. Any corrosive damage that may arise following use of other disinfectants is excluded from liability by BINDER GmbH. With every decontamination / disinfection method, always use adequate personal safety con- trols.

  • Page 64: Disinfection Of The Co Sensor

    15.3 Disinfection of the CO sensor To ensure complete disinfection and proper function of the sensor, BINDER recommends a wipe disinfec- tion of the sensor head with pure alcohol or non-corrosive alcohol-based surface disinfectants. The disin- fectant must be non-corrosive and free of chlorine or any acid. We recommend using the disinfectant Art.

  • Page 65: Hot-Air Sterilization At 180 °C / 356 °F

    Recommended procedure: Turn off the unit Pull out the sensor Spray the sensor head with alcohol or wipe it clean with a soaked cloth. Observe the reaction time of the disinfectant used. Before reinserting the CO sensor, it must be completely dry. The filter in the front of the sensor only needs replacing when damaged or dirty.

  • Page 66: Procedure For Hot-Air Sterilization

    The precise duration of the entire sterilization cycle depends on the ambient temperature at the installa- tion site and can thus vary. At an ambient temperature of 25 °C / 77 °F, the total duration is approx. 12 hours. You can shorten the cooling-down time by aborting the sterilization cycle (chap. 15.5) during the cooling-down phase, i.e.
  • Page 67 Figure 33: Initial sterilization display No sterilization can be started if the CO sensor is still plugged-in. You cannot start the sterilization if the operating mode HAND is locked. This is displayed by an error message. If this happens, unlock the operating mode HAND (chap. 7.4).

  • Page 68: Aborting The Hot-Air Sterilization

    CAUTION The glass door and inner chamber become hot during sterilization. Danger of burning. Do NOT touch the glass door and inner surfaces during sterilization. CAUTION Interruption of the temperature reaction time. Ineffective sterilization. Do NOT open the unit doors during sterilization. The sterilization cycle ends after approx.

  • Page 69: Aborting The Hot-Air Sterilization Manually

    CAUTION Glass door and inner chamber become hot during sterilization. Danger of burning. Do NOT touch the glass door and inner surfaces for approx. 4 hours after aborting steri- lization. Aborting sterilization after less than 6 hours When aborting the sterilization prematurely, it may be that the cells/pathogens inside the unit have not all been killed.

  • Page 70: Aborting The Hot-Air Sterilization By Opening The Outer Door

    After a manual abortion, the C 150 reverts to its standard operational status. The indication “ - - - “ in the lower display shows that the CO sensor is disconnected. As long as the interior temperature remains above the temperature set to trigger the temperature alarm, the C 150 will trigger alarm signals.

  • Page 71: Maintenance, And Service

    Service personnel authorized by BINDER will check this filter for pollution at each maintenance interval and replace it, if appropriate, but at least once a year.

  • Page 72: Sending The Unit Back To Binder Gmbh

    16.4 Sending the unit back to BINDER GmbH If you return a BINDER product to us for repair or any other reason, we will only accept the product upon presentation of an authorization number that has previously been issued to you. An authorization number will be issued after receiving your complaint either in writing or by telephone prior to your sending the BINDER product back to us.

  • Page 73: Packing Inside The Unit, Equipment

    In this case, clean and dry the incubator running at 37 °C / 98.6 °F with doors open for at least one hour before loading it with samples. BINDER recom- mends performing a hot air sterilization of the unit before commissioning.
