INTRODUCTION

The VWR Shaking incubators have been designed for general purpose incubations (up
to 80ºC). These units are high performance shaking incubators for professional,
industrial or educational use where the preparation or testing of materials is done at
approximately atmospheric pressure and no flammable, volatile or combustible
materials are being heated. These units are not intended for hazardous or household
locations or use.
Temperature within the shaking incubator is controlled and regulated by a
microprocessor. Temperature is set and displayed digitally. An independent, user
settable safety thermostat protects samples and the shaking incubator from overheating
in the unlikely event of a primary controller failure.
A fan, located in the chamber, assists in providing an exceptionally uniform environment.
The fan also speeds temperature recovery after the door of the shaking incubator has
been opened. For applications where the flow of air in the chamber is undesirable, the fan
may be switched off.
The interiors of the ILS4 and ILS6 shaking incubators are constructed of stainless steel.
The exteriors are made of cold rolled steel to resist corrosion and provide strength. The
door of the shaking incubator consists of two parts. The inner door is glass to allow for
viewing the chamber contents without disrupting the temperature environment. The outer
door is solid and insulated. It is also heated to help in maintaining the chamber
temperature. The heated door prevents condensation from forming on the inner glass
viewing door.
Your satisfaction and safety require a complete understanding of this unit. Read
this instruction manual thoroughly before attempting to operate the shaking
incubator. All operators should be given adequate training before using this
shaking incubator. Note that any alterations or modifications to the shaking
incubator may void the warranty.
