starting up and follow the safety instructions.

• 

Keep the operating instructions in a place where it can be 

accessed by everyone.

• Ensure that only trained staff work with the device.

• 

Follow the safety instructions, guidelines, occupational 

health, safety and accident prevention regulations.

• Set up the device in a spacious area on an even, stable, 

clean, non-slip, dry and fireproof surface.

• 

Do not operate the device in explosive atmospheres, 

with hazardous substances.

• 

Protect the device and accessories from bumping and 

impacting. 

• 

Check the device and accessories for damage before 

each use. Do not use damaged components.

• Safe operation is only guaranteed with the accessories 

described in the ”

Accessories

” section.

• The socket for the mains cord must be easily accessible.

• Socket must be earthed (protective ground contact).

• The voltage stated on the type plate must correspond to 

the mains voltage.

• The device can only be disconnected from the mains sup

-

ply by pulling out the mains plug or the connector plug.

• Disconnect the mains plug before attaching or changing 

any accessories.

• 

Disconnect the mains plug before cleaning, maintenance 

or moving the circulator.

 The device must only be opened by trained specialists, 

even during repair. The device must be unplugged from 

the power supply before opening. Live parts inside the 

device may still be live for some time after unplugging 

from the power supply.

Coverings or parts that can be re-

moved from the device without the 

aid of any tools must be put back 

on the device again to ensure safe operation, for exam-

ple to keep foreign objects and liquids, etc. from getting 

into the device.

• The device may only be used as prescribed and as de

-

scribed in these operating instructions. This includes op-

eration by instructed specialist personnel.

• When using critical or hazardous materials in your pro

-

cesses, 

IKA

®

 recommends to use additional appropri-

ate measures to ensure safety in the experiment. For 

example, users can implement measures that inhibit fire 

or explosions or comprehensive monitoring equipment. 

• Process pathogenic material only in closed vessels under 

a suitable fume hood. Please contact 

IKA

®

 application 

support if you have any question.

If the 

OFF

 switch is not within 

reach when device is operating, an 

EMERGENCY STOP

 switch that 

can be easily accessed must be installed in the work area.

• A laboratory circulator heats and circulates fluid accord

-

ing to specified parameters. This involves hazards due to 

high temperatures, fire and general hazards due to the 

device of electrical energy. The user is largely protect-

ed by the device of relevant standards. Further hazard 

sources  may  arise  due  to  the  type  of  tempering  fluid, 

e.g. by exceeding or undercutting certain temperature 

thresholds or by the breakage of the container and re-

action with the heat carrier fluid. It  is  not  possible  to 

consider all eventualities. They remain largely subject to 

the judgment and responsibility of the operator. For this 

reason, it may become necessary for user to take other 

precautionary safety measures.   

• Insufficient ventilation may result in the formation of ex

-

plosive mixtures. Only use the device in well ventilated 

areas.

The safety circuit (safe tempera-

ture) must be adjusted so that the 

maximum permissible temperature 

cannot be exceeded even in the event of a fault. Check 

the safe temperature circuit on a regular basis (see sec-

tion "

Setting the safety temperature

"). 

• Securely fix the 

IC control 

immersion circulator for use 

at the bath, so that it cannot tip over.

• Use suitable hoses for connection.

• Secure  hoses  and  tubes  against  slippage  and  avoid 

kinks.

• Check hoses, tubes and bath at regular intervals for pos

-

sible material fatigue (cracks/leaks).

• When device is used for external circulation, extra pre

-

caution must be taken for hot liquid leakage due to 

damaged hose.

• 

Mains cable should not get in contact with hot parts and 

fluids.

• If  you  are  using  plastic  bath,  observe  the  permitted 

working temperature range and fluids.

Do not start up the device if:

- It is damaged or leaking

- Cable (not only supply cable) is damaged.

• 

Be careful when filling a hot bath.

At high operating temperatures, the 

temperature of housing parts, sur-

faces and tubes can exceed 70 ° C.

It is dangerous to touch the heater. 

The temperature of the heater  can  

be very high.

ways be set to at least 25 ºC lower than the flash point 

of the fluid used. Examine regularly the function of the 

safety temperature limiter.

Never operate the device without 

sufficient  heat  carrier  fluid!  You 

should also be careful to ensure 

that the minimum clearances and immersion depths in 

the fluid are observed. Check the fluid level detection at 

a regular basis (see the chapter "

Filling and draining

").

• Continuous monitoring of the bath and the filling level of 

the bath fluid is required, especially at high temperatures.

• For  optimum  temperature  stability,  the  fluids  viscosity 

should be 50 mm

2

/s or less at its lowest operating tem-

perature. This permits good fluid circulation and mini

-

mizes heating from the pump.

If water is used at higher tempera-

ture, there is heavy loss of fluid due 

to the condensation of evapora-

tion steam.

• 

Untreated tap water is not recommended. It is recom-

mended to use distilled water or high purity water (ion 

exchangers) and add 0,1 g soda (sodium carbonate 

Na

2

CO

3

) /liter, to reduce corrosive properties.

Risk of burning caused by vapor or 

hot water at the outlet of the cool-

ing coil.

Do not use the cooling coil with wa-

ter at bath temperatures > 95° C.

For bath temperatures > 60°C make 

sure that the flow rate through the 

cooling coil is high enough.

Don't use following fluids:

- Untreated tap water 

- Concentration of acids or bases

- Solutions with halides: chlorides, fluorides, bromides, 

iodides or sulfur

- Bleach (Sodium Hypochlorite)

- Solution with chromates or chromium salts

- Glycerine

- Ferrous water.

When  changing  the  bath  fluid 

from water to a heat transfer fluid 

for temperatures above 100 °C, re-

move the remaining water from the complete system 

(including hoses and external devices). When doing this, 

also open the stopper and union nuts caps of the pump 

outputs and inputs and blow compressed air through 

all the pump outputs and inputs! Beware of the risk of 

burning due to delay in boiling!
