| Rate
Of Change
To calculate rate of change for a particular condition, take the
difference between the Start Temp and End Temp and divide by the
Transition Time.
Cool Down Example: From +50°C to -40°C = 90°C
/ 27 min = 3.33°C/min.
Heat Up Example: From -40°C to +50°C = 90°C /
11 min = 8.18°C/min.
*Note:
Transition times are measured after a 2 hour soak at the respective
start temperature with an empty chamber. |

jumpers. Three phase load is semi-balanced. Call for other voltages
or 50 Hz operation. Cooling performance is reduced 17% at 50 Hz.

| NOTE:
Performance is typical and based on operation at 23°C (73°F) ambient
and nominal input voltage. Designed for use in a normal conditioned
laboratory. Operation at higher ambient temperatures may result
in decreased cooling performance. Additional ports and shelves will
also affect performance. Operation above 30°C (85°F) or below 16°C
(60°F) ambient is not recommended. |
