Plug the test tube incubator into a properly grounded
receptacle. Insert a standard calibrated thermometer (51
mm immersion depth) into a 13 X 100 mm test tube con-
taining 2-3 ml. of solution and wait until the thermometer
indicates the factory preset temperature of 37°C. (See the
“Calibration” section for additional instructions.) You are
ready to incubate when the thermometer temperature has
stabilized within ±1/2°C from the set temperature. 

This dri-bath may be calibrated to maintain a
temperature other than the factory pre-set cali-
brated temperature of 37°C. To achieve a tem-
perature setting within a range of 30-60°C, refer
to the calibration instructions in this manual. 

The incubator is designed for continuous use at
the set temperature.
