11. Operating the Labormat TH

11.1 Filling with water

Open the lid of the device (4) and
remove the flask baskets (optional)
and support plate (55). The rear wall of
the water tank features an angle mark.
This indicates the maximum permissi-
ble water level.
Important: Never fill the device
above this mark. Overfilling can
cause leaks in the pump system
which in turn causes water to be
discharged.
There are two ways of filling the device:
1. Manual filling
Use a suitable vessel (e. g. bucket) or
water hose to fill the requisite water
volume (approx. 15 litres) directly into
the heating basin through the opening
in the device.

11.2 Establishing operational readiness

1. Press the red main switch (14) in the
control panel (7) to activate the power
supply. The pilot light integrated in the
switch lights up indicating operational
readiness of the device.
2. Set the rotary knob (19) on the ther-
mostat (22) to the requisite water tem-
perature. Important: The Labormat
TH pump does not work until an
operating temperature of 65 °C has
been reached. This reliably prevents
wax deposits in the pump housing and
spray system thereby preventing func-

2. Fixed connection
A water supply hose ( D1017E)
available as an option connects the
Labormat TH directly with the water
line (shut-off valve required). Unscrew
the seal nut at the back of the device
and firmly connect the supply hose with
the lock nut on the water inlet (top left
on rear of device). Connect the other
end of the connection hose to the water
line directly via a shut-off valve. Open
the shut-off valve and fill in water as
far as the maximum level. Replace the
support plate (55) and flask baskets
(accessories, please refer to page 31)
in the device and close the lid (4).
tional faults. When the pre-set tem-
perature is reached, the yellow pilot
light (17) in the control panel stays on.
It takes approx. 20 minutes to heat the
water to 65 °C.
It takes approx. 40 minutes to heat the
water to 95 °C.
