7.3.3
Starting a process
After pressing the Heat (11) key, the unit is heated up to the stand-by
temperature and this temperature is kept.
The status is indicated by the yellow status LED on the key.
When the stand-by temperature is reached,
the objects to be polymerized can be placed in.
When using hot polymerization the lid must be closed
during heat up.
Use only a flask basket which resists temperatures
up to 120°C (248°F).
Carefully place in and remove the objects to be polymerized. Risk of scalding!
When pressing the Start / Stop key (14), pressurization is carried out automatically for processes 45°C (113°F) and 55°C
(131°F). The status LED on the Pressure key (13) indicates the compressed air status. A status LED which is lit indicates
an open pressure valve. The maximum value of pressurization for the pot is 2 bars. The Pressure display (4) provides an
additional control option.
For hot polymerization processes 100°C (212°F) and Kulzer water bath the compressed air can be switched manually, if needed.
When the timer stops, the compressed air is automatically released and an acoustic signal can be heard. Risk of scalding!
7.4
Draining the contaminated water
Close the pressure pot, attach hose to the drainage connection (9) at the rear of the unit to drain the water, open water
drainage valve (8) and press the pressure key (13). After the water has been removed from the pressure pot, press the
pressure key (13) again. Close the water drainage valve and switch off the power switch.
To empty the water reservoir, use only a silicone hose with a temperature resistance of up to 120°C (248°F).
A suitable hose can be ordered from Kulzer (Order No. 66009729 – silicone hose, red). The silicone hose
is not included in the scope of delivery!
When emptying the water reservoir, the silicone hose may heat up considerably. Risk of scalding!
7.5
Putting out of operation
Discharge contaminated water (see chapter 7.4 Draining the contaminated water)
Switch off the unit with the power switch (5)
Unplug the unit (6)
Any material residues should be removed with a sponge cloth
7.5.1
Disposal of old equipment according to WEEE
Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act (ElektroG)
This Act sets out requirements for electrical and electronic equipment pursuant to directive 2002/96/EG issued by the
European Parliament and the European Council of 2005-05-03. Its main purpose is to prevent waste from electrical and
electronic equipment and to promote reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery to reduce both the volume of waste for
disposal and the inclusion in waste of harmful substances from electrical and electronic equipment.
For detailed information on professional disposal of disused old devices please contact your dealer or Kulzer
subsidiary directly in your country.
Important!
Marked equipment must not be brought to local waste disposal centres!
