2.2 Description Appliance size 110 to 1060 Description HPPeco & IPPecoplus The appliance can heat the interior up to +70 °C and cool it down to +5 °C. Low-noise, long-life and energy-saving Peltier cooling and heating technology is used for this. In heating operation, a part of the required energy is extracted from the surroundings (heat pump principle). HPPeco Additionally, the humidity in the interior can be regulated between 10% rh and 90% rh (rh = relative humidity). The humidity is increased by the evaporation of water from a tank which is then fed into the interior and reduced by condensation on a Peltier module. Optionally, the appliance can be equipped with a light module, making it possible to adjust the interior lighting in steps of 1 %. Appliance size 1400 to 2200 Description HPPeco & IPPecoplus The appliance can heat the interior up to 60 ºC and cool it down to 15 ºC. Low-noise, long-life and energy-saving Peltier cooling and heating technology is used for this. In heating operation, a part of the required energy is extracted from the surroundings (heat pump principle). Constant climate chambers HPPeco Additionally, the humidity in the interior can be regulated between 15% rh and 80% rh (rh = relative humidity). The humidity is increased by the evaporation of water from a tank which is then fed into the interior and reduced by condensation on a Peltier module.

To close the appliance, push the door closed and push the door handle sideways. WARNING

Operation and control

Loading the appliance When loading the appliance with an unsuitable load, poisonous or explosive vapours or gases may be produced. This could cause the appliance to explode, and persons could be severely injured or poisoned. The appliance may only be loaded with ma- terials which do not form any toxic or explosive vapours when heated up, and which cannot ignite. If there is any doubt as to the composition of materials, they must not be loaded into the appliance. Check the chamber load for chemical compatibility with the materials of the appliance. Insert the sliding steel grids or sliding shelves. The maximum number or grids / shelves and the load capacity are specifi ed in the technical data overview in chapter 7.3.5 . To achieve optimal temperature distribution, the type of slide-in unit used – steel grid or shelf – must be set in the menu under SETUP. The chamber must not be loaded too tightly, so that proper air circulation in the interior is guaranteed. Do not place any load on the fl oor, on the side walls or under the ceiling of the interior In case of improper loading (not enough space between the items), the set temperature may be exceeded or it may take longer until it is reached. (see also the “correct loading” sticker on the appliance). WARNING

Operation and control

5.4.3 Automatic temperature monitor (ASF) ASF is a monitoring device that automatically follows the set temperature setpoint with- in an adjustable tolerance band. The ASF – if switched on – is automatically activated as soon as the actual temperature value reaches 50 % of the set tolerance band of the setpoint (in the example: 50 °C ± 1 K) for the fi rst time (section A). If the set tolerance band around the setpoint (50 °C ± 2 K) is left – e.g. if the door is opened during operation (section B of illustration) – the alarm will be set off. The ASF alarm is automatically terminated as soon as 50 % of the set tolerance band of the set- point (in the example: 50 °C ± 1 K) are reached again (section C). If the temperature setpoint is altered, the ASF is automatically disabled temporarily (in this example: The setpoint is changed from 50 °C to 25 °C, section D), until it reaches the tolerance range of the new temperature setpoint (section E). 52°C 48°C ASF active 52°C 48°C ASF alarm ASF active ASF active 27°C 23°C °C 50°C 25°C t A B C D E AUTO AUTO AUTO 5.4.4 Adjusting temperature monitoring min 000°C ALARM max 000°C auto off - 99K + ALARM +- 0.0K min °C auto max 120.0°C 60 0 .

Type of slide-in unit (steel grid or shelf) Here, you have to select the type of slide-in unit (steel grid or shelf) used. The selection Shelf enables you to adjust the control function to the different air fl ow characteristics in the interior when using optional sliding shelves instead of the steel grids that are provided as standard. 7.3.6 Balance For appliances of the sizes 260, 410 and 750, application-specifi c correction of the heat output distribution (balance) between the upper and lower heating groups is possible. The adjustment range is from –50 % to +50 %. Distribution of the heating/cooling power (example): The –20 % (left) setting causes the lower Peltier elements to work at 20 % less power than the upper ones. The +30 % (right) setting causes the lower Peltier elements to work at 30 % more power than the upper ones. The 0 % setting restores the default distribution settings. 7.3.7 Dehumidifi cation interval The dehumidifi cation peltier modules behind the rear panel precisely generate cold spots inside the chamber in order to remove humidity from the appliance in a controlled way. If the device is dehumidifying for a long period of time in the lower end of the climate diagram, the water in the air will freeze at the dehumidifi cation peltier modules. If solid ice should form at the rear panel around the dehumidifi cation peltier modules, the dehu- midifi cation interval must be adjusted.

The dehumidifi cation interval function allows the time spans at which the dehumidifi ca-

tion peltier modules cool at maximum capacity to be adjusted individually. The preset value of 35 minutes is recommended for basic applications. Adjustment range: ■ Min. 15 minutes ■ Max. 180 minutes Example 1. Interval begins – dehumidifi cation peltier modules cool at full power and generate coldest point (-12°C), depending on the set time interval. 2. Interval duration expired – dehumidifi cation peltier modules are not operated for a short time, resulting in a local rise in tempera- ture. The ice thaws and the melt water is channelled out. 3. Interval begins again The ideal setting for the dehumidifi cation interval is when there is hardly any ice forma- tion on the rear panel and the setpoint humidity value is reached. ■ The interval should be decreased if there is heavy ice formation on the rear panel ■ If the setpoint value (humidity) is not reached, the interval should be increased ■ For climate points in the low temperature range with low humidity, the interval should be extended If you change the dehumidifi cation interval, test whether this has a positive effect on low ice formation in the interior. 7.3.8 Remote control In the setup entry remote control, you can set whether the appliance should be con- trolled via remote control and, if so, in which mode. These settings are available: ■ Off ■ Read Only ■ Write + Read ■ Write + Alarm If the appliance is in remote control mode, the symbol appears in the temperature display. In the settings Write + Read and Write + Alarm, the appliance cannot be con- trolled at the ControlCOCKPIT until the remote control has been switched off (setting Off) or set to Read. In order to use the remote control function, programming skills and special libraries are required. 7.3.9 Gateway The setup entry gateway is used to connect two networks with different protocols.
