The Neuation iTHERM CH25 is a mini incubator designed for laboratory use. Before first use, place the unit on a clean, level, and stable surface. Allow the device to stand for 2 to 3 hours (10 hours in summer) to let the system settle before turning it on. Ensure a clearance of at least 5 inches on all sides for proper air circulation. The unit is not designed for recessed or built-in installation.
Installation
Position the incubator away from heat sources such as boilers or direct sunlight. Connect the power supply to the 2-pin DC inlet on the back of the unit. The internal power outlet can be used to power small instruments like shakers or mixers by plugging the included cable into the bottom power inlet on the back of the instrument.
Operation
To operate the incubator:
- Open the front door and place samples inside.
- Connect the power adaptor to the unit and plug it into a wall outlet.
- Turn the power switch to the ON or COOL position.
- Use the UP and DOWN buttons on the control panel to set the desired temperature. The unit will save the settings automatically.
Calibration
If the displayed temperature requires adjustment:
- Press and hold the UP and DOWN buttons simultaneously until the display shows 00A.
- Set the required offset value within the range of ±5°C.
- Wait for the value to be stored automatically.
Note: Only one offset value can be entered, which applies to the entire temperature range.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Always disconnect the machine from the power source before cleaning. Use a damp cloth to wipe the unit. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the surface.
