Operating manual Operating manual 1. Intended use JULABO circulators have been designed to control the temperature of specific fluids in a bath tank. JULABO circulators are not suitable for direct temperature control of foods, semiluxury foods and tobacco, or pharmaceutical and medical products. Direct temperature control means unprotected contact of the object with the bath medium (bath fluid). 1.1. Description The circulators are operated via the splash-proof keypad.
ED Persons: The operator is responsible for the qualification of the personnel operating the units. The operator should be constantly informed about the dangers involved with their job activities as well as preventive actions. Make sure all persons expected to carry out operation, installation and maintenance of the unit read and understand the safety information and operating instructions.
Operator responsibility – Safety recommendations When using hazardous materials or materials that could become hazardous, the operator must affix the enclosed safety labels (1 + 2) to the front of the unit so they are highly visible: 1 Warning label W00: Colors: yellow, black Danger area. Attention! Observe instructions. (operating manual, safety data sheet) 2 Mandatory label M018: Colors: blue, white Carefully read the user information prior to beginning operation.
ED 2.2. EC Conformity The products described in the operating instructions conform to the requirements of the following European guidelines: Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to machinery. EMC guideline with respect to legal harmonization of the member countries concerning electromagnetic compatibility. JULABO GmbH Eisenbahnstr. 45 77960 Seelbach / Germany 2.3.

Operating instructions Operating instructions 3. 3.1. Safety notes for the user Explanation of safety notes In addition to the safety warnings listed, warnings are posted throughout the operating manual. These warnings are designated by an exclamation mark inside an equilateral triangle. “Warning of a dangerous situation (Attention! Please follow the documentation).” The danger is classified using a signal word. Read and follow these important instructions for averting dangers.
ED 3.3. Safety recommendations Follow the safety recommendations to prevent damage to persons or property. Further, the valid safety instructions for working places must be followed. Only connect the unit to a power socket with earthing contact (PE – protective earth)! The power supply plug serves as safe disconnecting device from the line and must be always easily accessible. Operation is permitted with non-flammable liquids only.
Safety notes for the user Caution: The temperature controlling i.e. of fluids in a reactor constitutes normal circulator practice. We do not know which substances are contained within these vessels. Many substances are: inflammable, easily ignited or explosive hazardous to health environmentally unsafe i.e.: dangerous The user alone is responsible for the handling of these substances! The following questions shall help to recognize possible dangers and to reduce the risks to a minimum.

Preparations 5. Preparations 5.1. Installation Caution: Securely fix the immersion circulator. The heater may not be in contact with the wall of the bath tank. Keep a distance of at least 15 mm. Units not adequately fixed may drop into the bath tank. Danger of electric shock! First pull out the power plug to disconnect the unit from the power supply net. Then take the immersion circulator out of the bath tank. Make a service technician check the instrument before it is used again.
ED 5.2. Bath fluids Caution: No liability for use of other bath fluids! Do not use flammable bath fluids! Water: The quality of water depends on local conditions. Due to the high concentration of lime, hard water is not suitable for temperature control because it leads to calcification in the bath. Ferrous water can cause corrosion - even on stainless steel. Chloric water can cause pitting corrosion. Distilled and deionized water is unsuitable.
Preparations 5.3. Temperature application to external systems Caution: Securely attach all tubing to prevent slipping. If the circulator is operated without external system, close the pump connector (24a) with the cap nut. The circulator is used for temperature application to external, closed systems (loop circuit). 5.3.1. Pump set Accessories Order No. Description 8 970 140 Pump set 24b 24a Mounting the pump set: Remove the bath attachment clamp (21).
ED Warning: Tubing: At high working temperatures the tubing used for temperature application and cooling water supply represents a danger source. A damaged tubing line may cause hot bath fluid to be pumped out within a short time. This may result in: Burning of skin Difficulties in breathing due to hot atmosphere Safety recommendations Employ suitable connecting tubing. Make sure that the tubing is securely attached.
Preparations 5.6. Countercooling Notice: Observe the laws and regulations of the water distribution company valid in the location where the unit is operated. For applications near the ambient temperature, the cooling coil (order no. 8 970 105) must be connected to the water mains. Mounting the cooling coil: 25b 25a 21 Remove the bath attachment clamp (21). Screw the cooling coil to the circulator, and then fix the bath attachment clamp to the cooling coil.
ED 6. 6.1. Operating procedures Power connection Caution: Only connect the unit to a power socket with earthing contact (PE – protective earth)! The power supply plug serves as safe disconnecting device from the line and must be always easily accessible. Never operate equipment with damaged mains power cables. Regularly check the mains power cables for material defects (e.g. for cracks).
Operating procedures 6.3. Automatic / non-automatic start mode Keep depressed the key and turn on the circulator with the mains power switch. For a short while the LED temperature DISPLAY indicates the effective start mode: AUTOSTART on. AUTOSTART off. NOTE: The circulator has been configured and supplied by JULABO according to N.A.M.U.R. recommendations. This means for the start mode, that the unit must enter a safe operating state after a power failure (non-automatic start mode).
ED 6.4. Setting the temperatures Factory setting: 25 °C Setting can be carried out in the start/stop condition. 1. Press one of the keys for a short moment. The setpoint value instead of the actual value is indicated on the display for about 8 seconds. The value can now be changed. 2. Change value: Press to set a higher value. Press to set a lower value. Keep the keys depressed for the value to change fast. 3. Press the 6.5. key to store the value.
Troubleshooting guide / Error messages 7. Troubleshooting guide / Error messages + Whenever the microprocessor electronics registers a failure, a complete shutdown of the heater and circulating pump is performed. The alarm light " " illuminates and a continuous signal tone sounds. The LED temperature display indicates the cause for the alarm in form of a code. Press the key to quit the audible signal. The circulator is operated without bath fluid, or the liquid level is insufficient.
ED 8. Cleaning / repairing the unit Caution: Always turn off the unit and disconnect the mains cable from the power source before cleaning the unit. Prevent humidity from entering into the circulator. Electrical connections and any other work must be performed by qualified personnel only. Cleaning For cleaning the bath tank and the immersed parts of the circulator, use low surface tension water (e.g., soap suds). Clean the outside of the unit using a wet cloth and low surface tension water.
