Installation and Laboratory Connection

2.2.1 Placement at the Working Place

You can stack the CERTOMAT® Tplus. Up to three
devices can be placed on top of each other. As far as
the information below refers to a shaking cabinet they
apply also to your unit.
1. Place the CERTOMAT® Tplus in such a way, that it is
easily accessible and does not interfere with other
devices. The right part of the machine should be
positioned in an approx. distance of 50 cm from other
devices or from the wall. So the side door is accessible
and you will not have to reposition the CERTOMAT®
Tplus, if you want, for instance, to open the side door.
A minimum wall distance of 15 cm is necessary for
sufficient ventilation.
If the CERTOMAT® Tplus includes the optional cooling
unit (UHK version), a clearance from the wall of at
least 20 cm is required.
•
For placement of one or 2 cabinets in stack
arrangement we recommend to place the (lower)
cabinet onto the optional support frame. This makes
the operation easier. Each unit can be operated
separately.
2. To stack to 2 to 3 cabinets
− remove the plastic caps at the upper cover of the
cabinet, which is to be placed below.
− replace the feet of the intended upper cabinet by
the locating pins included in the delivery.
− if necessary, the eyelets provided can be screwed
into the upper side of the top cabinet so that the
cabinet can be easily lifted.
When screwing in the lifting eyebolts use the plastic
washers provided. The washers prevent the cover plate
from being scratched.
3. Place the cabinets carefully on top of each other. Take
care of the weight of the cabinets. Only use suited
lifting tools or devices. The locating pins should easily
fit into their borings in the upper cover of the lower
cabinet.
4. Carefully level the incubation shaker or the stacked
units.
Unbalanced placement of the cabinet can cause
uneven rotation of the tray support. The drive can be
subject to quick wear and tear or be damaged,
respectively.
Especially at heavy loads of the shakers and with high
shaking speeds, the stack arrangement of 2 ... 3
cabinets can start to wobble during operation.
• Carrying handles are provided for easier handling of
the device.
Handling:
1. Switch off the CERTOMAT® Tplus and disconnect it
from the power supply.
2. Open the side door on the right and push the
assembled handle into the two drill holes in the frame.
Secure the carrying handle on both sides against
slipping with the enclosed split pins.
3. Push the left side wall slightly upwards so that it slides
out of the holding rails. Remove the side wall and put it
to one side.
4. Push the assembled handle into the two drill holes in
the frame. Secure the carrying handle on both sides
against slipping with the enclosed split pins.
The CERTOMAT® Tplus can now be moved.
CAUTION:
The device is very heavy! It can only be moved by at least
4 persons.
5. When the work is ended, pull out the split pins and
remove the handles.
6. Close the right side door and put the left side door
onto its hinges again.
7. Only after the device is fully closed once more can it be
connected to the supply voltage again.

2.2.2 Power Supply

• You will require or need to prepare a laboratory
grounded socket offering 230 V, 50 Hz or 115 V, 60 Hz,
depending on the country standard. Check on the type
plate on the cabinet whether it has the correct power
ratings.
Never connect the CERTOMAT® Tplus to power supplies
of wrong ratings.
• If the plug at the power supply cable does not fit to
your sockets, the service technician of Sartorius AG can
attach a suitable plug.
