Heat Up Transition Time (empty)*

-30°C to +85°C 13 minutes (8.8°C/minute)

*Note: Transition times are measured after a 2 hour soak at the respective start temperature with an empty chamber, as indicated on the temperature controller, 23°C ambient. Measured with setpoint beyond the start and end temperatures. Does not include the effect of proportional band when approaching setpoint. Performance is reduced by 17% with 50 Hz input power.

Instrumentation

Temperature Controller

Watlow F4 Controller with RS-232 interface, LED readout of temperature, LCD display of other parameters (standard).
Watlow F4T Touch Screen Controller with RS-232, Ethernet interface, 4.3" color graphic touch screen (optional).

Limit Controller Independent high and low temperature limits. Triggers an audible alarm and shuts down the chamber. Relay contacts provide a safety power interlock for test sample.
Chart Recorder   (Optional) Honeywell DR4300 Series. One pen, 10" circular chart. Mounts in lower front door.

Input Power Requirements
230 V ±10%, 60 Hz, 3 Phase Max Current Draw 31 A; Recommended Service 40 A
208 V -5/+10%, 60 Hz, 3 Phase Max Current Draw 26 A; Recommended Service 35 A

Input may be configured for 230 V or 208 V in the field by changing jumpers. Three phase load is balanced. Call for other voltages or 50 Hz operation.

Customer power source must be hard-wired to the chamber by a qualified electrician. Power cord and plug is not included.

Sound Level 67 dBA in cooling mode (A-weighted, measured 36" from the front surface, 63" from the floor, in a free-standing environment)

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.

Due to continuous product improvements, specifications subject to change without notice.
