1. Safety Considerations
The ECOTRON ® incubator shaker corresponds to modern demands for safe and easy-handling.
Any exposed current-carrying components (exception: lamps outside of the incubation chamber)
are low-voltage only, switching networks are physically separated and the chance of mechanical
injuries minimised.
Nevertheless, the following basic hints are indispensable for the safety of the user and the
protection of the machine. These hints, both here and in the following text, are printed in
italics in conjunction with a warning symbol (hand with pointed finger). They are to be
followed in every case.
All the housings and covers of the shaker are only to be removed by personnel explicitly authorised by
INFORS to do so. This is because safety-critical zones may be covered by housing panels.
The movement of the shaker table can cause injury due to the high torque when in operation. Therefore,
the tray is only to be handled when at rest.
The vent holes at the sides and in the back are not to be obstructed in any way. On no account allow
objects to become stuck in the fan or air intake openings.
The minimum distance has to be followed when installing the shaker.
Remove the transport security device before bringing the shaker into operation (see chapter 3.3).
During long absences or interruptions of operation, according to location (eg. humid laboratory or
unprotected position), it is recommended to withdraw the main power plug in order to avoid the risk of
accidents.
The specifications in chapter "4.2. Chemical Resistance" have to be followed precisely.
