Controlling Solution Temperature Using External Probe; Heating Small Volumes; Heating Metal Vessels And Sand Baths - Thermo Scientific Cimarec+ Mode D'emploi

Controlling Solution
Temperature Using External
Probe
To control the solution temperature plug a external
probe into the probe receptacle located on the back side
of the unit. When the probe is connected, the adjustable
temperature range is 30-250 °C. Place the probe into the
solution. The display will indicate the actual temperature
of the solution as measured by the probe. When the
probe is connected, the adjustable temperature range is
30-250 °C.
The external probe offers more exact temperature
control than regulating the top plate by the internal
sensor. If you need to maintain a precise setpoint it
is recommend to use a probe to control the solution
temperature instead of controlling by the top plate
temperature.
When using a probe with the Cimarec
recommended that a clamp on a support rod be used to
hold the probe in the solution.
To ensure accurate probe readings, as much of the
probe sheath as possible should be immersed in the
solution. Make sure the probe is immersed in the liquid
and is not located in air or outside of the solution. If the
probe is plugged into the hot plate, but is not in solution
while the heat control is operating, the temperature
display will continue to indicate an ambient temperature,
and a probe out of solution error will occur. Because
the set point cannot be reached the heating element
will continue to supply heat to the top plate, and the
maximum top plate temperature(300°C, 400°C or
540°C) may be reached. If the remote probe does not
+ unit it is
sense a temperature change in three minutes the unit
will display E03 and shut down.

Heating Small Volumes

Preheating small volumes is not necessary as it may
cause the temperature to overshoot the desired set-
point.
Heating Metal Vessels and
Sand Baths
Cimarec + is capable of precisely regulating the top
plate temperature, metal vessels and sand baths may
be heated safely without the danger of the ceramic top
breaking. Use the lowest temperature setting possible
for applications to limit thermal stress to the ceramic top.
Using a metal vessel or sand bath may reduce the life of
the stirring hot plate.
Note
It is not allowed to plug in the external
probe while the temperature knob is ON.
Please turn the temperature knob to OFF
state while plugging in the external knob.
Otherwise, the display will blink and the
heating element will be turned off until
reset.
