Most common service works

Replacing of the door sealing

The door sealing can be replaced without any

tool. It is a made of one piece and can be simply
put over a metal edge which goes round about
the whole inner chamber.

Adjustment of the door

The door holder is fastened by a flexible spring

system. To ensure perfect closing of the door it
can be adjusted by a screw.
A easy test to ensure closing of the door without
a gap is to place a piece of paper between the
door and the oven. It should be nearly
impossible to pull it out when the sealing closes
tightly.

If it is necessary adjustment can also made by

changing the position of the hinges. To do this
the screws on right hand side of the oven must
be unfixed, the door must be pressed against

Note:
Leaky doors are the most common reason for
insufficient temperature inaccuracies !
BB / JTU 25.06.2000
the chamber and the screws must be fixed
again. Picture below shows a outer door wit the
threads for the hinges
Note chamber sizes above 115l volume have 2
unit doors. Too check if their door sealing is tight
is very easy.
Close only one of the doors and put your head
inside the chamber. Have a look on the closed
door. If there is any gap between the door frame
and the door sealing you will see a light falling
in.
To check the doors of sizes 53 and 115 you can
take a sheet of paper. Squeeze it between the
door frame and the door sealing on different
positions around the door sealing and try to pull
it out. It have to go only very hard.

Disassembling the control panel

The controller, main switch and safety thermostate can be replaced when the control panel has
been disassembled. Remove the control buttons by pulling forward with a spatula placed carefully
behind them.

The front panel is fastened within the red plastic

frame with small noses

It consists out of a sheet metal part and a red

adhesive foil.

This noses can be snapped out by slipping a

thin tool e.g. a scrapper between the plastic
frame and the front panel

First in the upper area, then in the lower area,

carefully lever out the front panel. The front
panel can now be disconnected on the left and
then on the right. Fold the front panel out
forwards, at the same time disconnect the two
earth terminals.

Components on the right of the panel:

Disassembling the inner chamber

The glass door has to be removed at first (with series BD, BED).
The side pieces of the inner chamber can then be removed. Next, the floor is disassembled. Now
the sensor mounting can be removed and the sensor moved backwards. If two sensors are
installed (option), the second sensor must first be bent a little, so that it can be pushed through the
drill hole in the rear panel. The rear wall of the inner chamber is part of the outer chamber.

Changing the heating element (several elements with larger sizes of this chambers)

To change the heating elements, you have to

remove the inner chamber. First the side walls,
next the bottom and lastly the back wall.

This example of a unit without fan e.g. ED,BD.

The heating element is fixed from

the rear side with crimp rings.

If the inner chamber parts are removed the fan

wire can be disassembled. Note that it is a left
turning thread!

here the example of a disassembled outer

chamber. The wire is for option “230V socket
inside the chamber” (only for incubators)

the fan motors are fixed from the backside of the

outer chamber with 3 parker screws.

You can take them/it away if the fan wheel is

removed.

Here the two types of fan motors

right side: Ball bearing type (black coated iron)

left side: slide bearing type
(without a protection cap on the axis)

The slide bearing type should be changed if it

turns very close.

Calibration of the R2 temperature controller

50

ƒ Insert the measuring instrument probe at the measuring point, located in the centre of the
usable volume.

ƒ Ventilation flap open or closed (depending upon the user application).

ƒ Set the required nominal temperature.

ƒ Operate the unit until it reaches the required nominal temperature and allow to settle. When the
unit has reached the required temperature, please allow it to continue running for approx. 1
hour - only then is the unit reliably set for calibration.

ƒ Read off the temperature displayed on your measuring instrument and compare this with the
controller display.

ƒ Any variation can be changed on the controller. To do this, press the

actual/set value button, the arrow up and arrow down buttons 5 x simultaneously. A point will
flash in the display. Now you can input the temperature displayed your measuring instrument
by repeatedly pressing the on and off button. Confirm the entry by pressing the actual/set value
button. Re-check the input temperature with your measuring instrument once the unit has been
re-heated.

Note:
The controller has its best accuracy at the calibration temperature. So a calibration temperature
next to the most common user temperature is recommended. The calibrating procedure can be
repeated if the first adjustment does not bring the desired accuracy.

The calibration point of the final testing at the factory is 37°C (incubators), resp. 150°C (drying
ovens).

ƒ Insert the measuring instrument probe at the measuring point, located in the centre of
the usable volume.

ƒ Ventilation flap open or closed (depending upon the user application).

ƒ Set the required nominal temperature.

ƒ Operate the unit until it reaches the required nominal temperature and allow to settle.
When the unit has reached the required temperature, please allow it to continue
running for approx. 1 hour - only then is the unit reliably stable for calibration.

ƒ Read off the temperature displayed on your measuring instrument and compare this
with the controller display.

ƒ Any variation can be changed on the controller. To do this, press the start/stop button
and stop the controller. Now press the actual/set value button, the mode button, the
arrow up and arrow down buttons simultaneously. A point will flash in the display. Now
you can input the temperature displayed on your measuring instrument by repeatedly
pressing the on and off button. Confirm the entry by pressing the actual/set value
button. Now press the start/stop button to start the controller.
Re-check the input temperature with your measuring instrument once the unit has been
re-heated. This adjustment on the controller must be performed rapidly, in order to
ensure that any variation is as small as possible.

The calibration point of the final testing at the factory is 37°C (incubators), resp. 150°C (drying
ovens).

Checking the PT100 sensor

To check the PT100 sensor a resistance measurement can be made at two different temperatures.
The resistance between the two white wires (directly connected) and the single red wire should be
108: at 20 °C and 131: at 80°C.

Chapter 4

The example pictures of this chapter show the construction of this chamber types.
Only small size cabinets with one door are shown.
The principal construction however is similar for all sizes of this types of warming chambers.

The major difference with 3-phase chambers are solid state relays at the lower back side of the
chamber to control the heating elements.

A low voltage DC heating output is used on the controller in this case. For chambers with only one
phase the heating elements are directly controlled by a power switching element on the controller
PCB.
