When the time has passed the unit ven-
tilates automatically. The lid of the Poly-
max 1/120 °C can, however, only be
opened, if the temperature of the water
bath has fallen below 95 °C.
If the pressure pot has got a tempera-
ture of more than 95 °C after the time
has run out, it is cooled down by cold
air until the temperature has fallen
9. Abort/termination of programme
The polymerisation process can be ter-
minated prematurely. For this purpose
push the adjustment knob (b) for 3 sec-
onds. The Polymax ventilates automati-
cally, the display for time shows 0, the
pre-adjusted temperature is maintained.
10. Change between °C and °F
At delivery the Polymax units are
adjusted to °C. In order to change to °F
push the temperature switch (e) and
the main switch (14) at the same time.
The temperature indication display (d)
shows L (which stands for °C), the time
indication display (f) shows the maxi-
mum value of 95. By turning the adjust-
ment knob (b) it is possible to change
between L (°C) and H (°F). When the
machine is adjusted to H the time indi-
cation display shows the value 203.
below 95 °C. During this time the
cooling air is released by means of the
ventilation valve. When operating at
120 °C the cool down phase can take
5–8 minutes from time expiration to
the opening of the lid.
The possibility of opening the lid is indi-
cated by the green control lamp (h).
Open the lid and remove the objects.
For following polymerisation processes
with identical temperature continue as
described from point 7.2 on.
Exception Polymax (1/120 °C): The time
indication display (f) shows the maxi-
mum values 120 °C or 248 °F. Push
the adjustment knob (b) one time in
order to confirm the selected tempera-
ture denomination. The time and tem-
perature indication displays (d + f) indi-
cate 0. Then go on as described from
point 7 on.
