Hot Surfaces - Bibby Scientific stuart SB300 Manuel D'utilisation

The wires in the mains cable are coloured as
follows:
BROWN
BLUE
GREEN/YELLOW - EARTH
The instruments are fitted with an IEC socket at
the rear of the instrument for connection of the
mains lead. The appropriate mains lead should be
connected BEFORE connection to the mains
supply.
Should the mains lead need replacement a cable
2
of 1mm of harmonised code H05W-F connected
to an IEC320 plug should be used.
N.B. The UK mains lead is protected by a 10A
fuse mounted in the plug top.
IF IN DOUBT CONSULT A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN
When connected to the mains electricity supply a
green light on the front panel illuminates, except
for the digital SD300 and SD500 models where
the display will illuminate showing the word
"OFF".
Safety Advice Before Use
❖ If the mains supply is interrupted the units will
restart with its current settings on the
restoration of the electricity supply.
❖ Do not use an instrument with a ceramic top
if the top plate is scratched, chipped or shows
signs of chemical etching.
❖ Position the instrument on a firm level surface
away from any heat sensitive or flammable
material.
❖ Do not use the units with flammable liquids or
in a hazardous atmosphere.
❖ There is a danger of liquid spills if vessels are
stirred too vigorously. Always build stirrer
speed slowly and never stir faster than
necessary.
❖ Never move or carry the instrument until it
has been switched off and allowed to cool.
❖ Never move or carry the unit with containers
on the top plate or while the instrument is
connected to the mains electricity supply.

Hot Surfaces

WARNING: The top surface of the
instrument may be HOT. Do not leave
heaters switched on when not in use.
WARNING: When the surface becomes too
hot to touch the red "HOT" warning light
on the front panel will begin to flash. This
will continue to flash while the plate
temperature is above 50°C even if the unit
is switched off as long as it is connected to
the electricity supply.
WARNING: Do not disconnect or switch
off the electricity supply until the "HOT"
warning light has ceased flashing.
WARNING: The plate may still be hot
when large masses are left on the plate,
even though the "HOT" warning light has
gone out.
WARNING: The top surface of the
instrument may be HOT, especially in free
air when a surface temperature of up to
450°C can be achieved on some of the
ceramic top models and 300°C on the
metal top models.
Heating
Models SB300, SB302, SB500, CB300, CB302,
CB500:
The knob labelled "Heat" on the front panel
controls the heat output and hence the plate
temperature.
The knob is graduated from 1 - 9. Increasing the
value increases the heat output.
Turn the hotplate control knob clockwise to the
desired setting. The amber load indicator light
will illuminate and it will begin to cycle on and
off when the desired temperature is reached and
the hotplate begins to control.
Models SD300 and SD500:
When connected to the mains electricity supply
the digital display will illuminate and show the
word OFF.
