5. Start up
•
After connecting the supply lines (chap. 4), turn on the unit by the main power switch (3).
•
Open the water-tap for freshwater supply. Alternatively, fill the freshwater can (option, chap. 17.9).
•
Turn on the humidifying and dehumidifying system with switch (4) (humidity switch ON/OFF).
After turning on the chamber for the first time, or after an interruption of the power supply, the relative
humidity will increase only after a delay of about 20 minutes. During this period, the relative humidity can
drop considerably.
Warming chambers may release odors in the first few days after commissioning. This is not a quality
defect. To reduce odors quickly we recommend heating up the chamber to its nominal temperature for
one day and in a well ventilated location.

Figure 17: Program controller MB1
The 2-channel program controller MB1 controls following values inside the climatic chamber:
Channel 1: Temperature in °C (range without humidity / without light cassettes: 0 °C /
32°F
to 70 °C /
158°F
)
Channel 2: Relative humidity in % r.H. (range 10 % r.H. to 80 % r.H.)
You can enter the desired set point values in Manual Mode or Program Mode (chap. 5.2) in the display
controller. For the control range of temperature and relative humidity, see chap. 13).
The function Light Quantum Control permits apart from displaying the actual values of UVA and the visi-
ble spectral range cumulative measurement of the light doses In Manual Mode target dose values of UVA
and the visible spectral range can be entered. When they are reached, the UVA, and cool white fluores-
cent tubes are automatically turned off independently from each other.
