B. Handling Tube Blocks and the Waterbath Insert

Tube heating blocks and the waterbath insert are placed and removed from the heating unit

with the aid of two bolts (provided) that act as handles.

To properly install a block or insert:

1. Thread the two bolts several turns into the block.

2. Grasp the ends of the bolts, lift the block, and then carefully lower it into the unit;

guiding it over the temperature probe. The opening in the bottom of the block

should fit over the probe.

3. Remove the threaded bolts before using the system.

Do not operate the system without a block inserted into the base unit!

Ne pas faire fonctionner le système sans un bloc insérée dans l'unité de base!

When using a waterbath insert do NOT leave the heated lid in down position for

more than 90 minutes. Excess condensation will form that may damage the

heating base.

Lors de l'utilisation d'un insert de bain-marie ne pas laisser le couvercle chauffant en

position basse pendant plus de 90 minutes. L'excès de la condensation se forme qui

peut endommager la base chauffante.

C. Using the Temperature Controller

The Hybex Microsample Incubator is equipped with an

EZ-Zone temperature controller that has been calibrated

at the factory to provide accurate block temperatures

from 35 to 99°C. The controller has two LED displays and

four push buttons. The left display shows ACTUAL block

temperature in red. The right display shows the SET

temperature in green.

To program the temperature controller:

1. Turn on the instrument.

2. Program the desired SET temperature by pressing the up or down arrow buttons:

•Press the up arrow button to increase the current SET temperature

•Press the down arrow button to decrease the current SET temperature.

3. Verify the new SET temperature is shown in the green display on the right. The

instrument will now adjust the block heater until the SET temperature is attained.

SciGene recommends checking calibration according to your laboratory schedule. See

section III. D. Calibrating the Temperature Controller for details.

Hybex®Microsample Incubator — USER MANUAL

Version 1.9, Oct 2019 9 (408) 733-7337, [email protected]

D. Calibrating the Temperature Controller

The temperature controller is calibrated at the factory to provide accurate block

temperatures from 35 to 99°C. Calibration is required only if the controller displays a block

temperature which differs by more than one degree (1°C) from a NIST calibrated T-type

digital thermometer (sold separately, SciGene cat. #1051-52-0). Contact SciGene Customer

Service (custserv@scigene.com) or your local distributor to purchase a thermometer.

To calibrate the temperature controller:

1. Insert a block into the Hybex incubator, turn ON the

instrument and set the controller to 65°C. Allow 15

minutes for temperature to stabilize.

2. Using the cable provided with the digital thermometer

(cat. #1051-52-0), plug one end into the blue receptacle

found on the back panel of the Hybex incubator and

the other end into the thermometer.

3. Turn on the thermometer. Allow 1 minute for

thermometer to stabilize. The actual temperature of

the block will be displayed.

4. Calculate the difference between the digital

thermometer and the temperature controller to

determine the adjustment value. For example, if the

thermometer reads 63.9°C while the controller reads

65°C, then the adjustment value is -1.1°C.

5. On the controller, press the up and down arrows simultaneously for 3 seconds. The

left display shows “A1” and the right display shows “open”.

6. Press the Advance Button (green circle) 3 times until the right display shows “i.CA”.

The left display will show the offset value between the controller and thermometer

when the unit was last calibrated.

7. Using the up or down arrows, add the adjustment value from step 4 above to the

existing offset value shown on the controller. For example, if the adjustment value is

-1.1°C and the current offset is -0.3°C then the new offset is -1.4°C.

8. Press the Infinity Key (∞) twice to exit calibraon and return to the operaon

display. Verify that the temperature on the thermometer matches the display. Your

incubator is now calibrated to provide accurate temperatures between 35 and 99°C.
