2) INSTALLATION
During the unpacking and positioning manoeuvring, proceed cautiously in order to avoid possible damages.
Position the table on a perfectly horizontal floor. (In case of connection to a canalization system for fumes expulsion
outside, the table must be positioned so that it is possible to carry out the discharged air).
3) WATER AND ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS
Water inlet
The tap of the sink (mixer) can supply hot and cold water while the wash of the collecting basin can be connected
only to cold water.
The mixer is connected to N. 2 flexible pipes of 3/8” (one for hot water, the other one for cold water). They must be
connected to the laboratory’s water system using flexible pipes (not provided).
If the laboratory’s water system cannot supply hot water, it is necessary to close the provided hot water pipe using a
 3/8” plug.
Water outlet
The draining consists of a standard siphon  1” 1/4 situated, except for modifications on request, on the base of the
table. The connection happens at floor with flexible pipe and connection  40.
Important: The outlet system must have a minimum inclination of 1,5°.

centralized canalization system for vapours discharge outside.
 The electrofan allows vapours aspiration from the working surface, precisely from the table’s perimeter and the
central side. The air is purified passing through the filter and can be discharged in this way:
1) FANFILTERDISCHARGE IN THE SAME ROOM.
2) FANFILTERDISCHARGE OUTSIDE THROUGH A NON-ASPIRATED CANALIZATION SYSTEM (the draining
pipe must not be longer than 3 metres, diameter 200 mm).
3) FANFILTERDISCHARGE OUTSIDE THROUGH AN ASPIRATED CANALIZATION SYSTEM.
Important:
- In case of non-aspirated canalization, the length of the draining pipe must not be higher than 3 metres, the
diameter must be equal to 200 mm.
- In case of expulsion outside, in the working room must be a change of air proportionate to the quantity of expelled

Aspiration speed adjustment
The fan’s speed is visualized on the display. In order to change it, use the increase/decrease keys positioned
over the MENU key.
Fan self-switching off
The programmable time MAX TIME can change between 0 (DISABLED, default value) and 24 hours. In order to
visualize alternately set time and elapsed time, press SET/MUTE key.
ELAPSED TIME is automatically updated by the software. Normally, it is automatically zeroed after the fan’s self-
switching off, but it can be zeroed by the operator by pressing at the same time the increase/decrease keys placed
over MENU key.
The count happens only if the fan is in operation.
Filter life
Visualizes/sets the life of the filter in order to effect the relative replacement.
The programmable time MAX TIME can change between 0 (DISABLED) and 999 hours. The default preset time is
equal to 600 hours.
In order to visualize alternately set time and elapsed time (updated automatically by the software), press SET/MUTE
key.
When elapsed time reaches the maximum value MAX TIME, a visual and acoustic alarm enters into action to advise
the operator to change the filter because it is saturated.
In order to silence the acoustic alarm press SET/MUTE key. The red LED, instead, disappears only after zeroing
ELAPSED TIME (effect this operation only after changing the filter, in compliance with the safety regulations).

 The parameters and timers state are saved automatically on internal EPROM every hour and for every exit
from the screen of a parameter by pressing the MENU key.
Alarms function
When a determinate function reaches the maximum value MAX TIME, a visual and acoustic alarm enters into action
and the display shows the function in alarm (WARNING).
In order to silence the acoustic alarm press SET/MUTE key. The red LED, instead, disappears only after zeroing
ELAPSED TIME (effect this operation only after changing the filter, in compliance with the safety regulations).
7) CONTROL PEDAL
The table is provided with control pedal for the lifting/descent of the working plane. It is placed in front and its starting
happens immediately at the ignition of the table.

8) REPLACING THE FUSES
If the green switch is on but the table doesn’t work, check, and if necessary replace, the delayed fuse placed inside
the control panel: 3,15 A 5x20 mm – T3.15AH250V.
9) GARBAGE DISPOSAL UNIT (OPTIONAL ACCESSORY)
The garbage disposal unit is used to avoid possible obstructions in the draining pipes. It is provided with stainless
steel working chamber and rotating parts and a pedal control for the starting.
Important:
1) The garbage disposal unit must be absolutely used running abundantly water into the sink.
2) In order to start it, press the provided pedal.
3) Do not insert metal or plastic objects.
4) Do not insert the hands in the working chamber for any reason.
5) Do not use it in case of absence of water in the draining basin.
6) After using it, effect the cleaning in the following way: leave the garbage disposal unit in function for 5/10 seconds
running abundantly water. It is possible to add non-corrosive disinfectant.
10) LIQUIDS ASPIRATOR (OPTIONAL ACCESSORY)
The liquids aspirator must be connected to the water system. For the working, open the tap placed in the back side,
position the aspiration cannula in the container to suck; the draining will happen directly in the liquids recovery basin

10) CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
A proper standard of hygiene and the routine maintenance of the laboratory are necessary to keep the instrument in
good working conditions. The operator is responsible for the proper cleaning of the hood.
1) Use only products suitable for steel surfaces. Do not use brushes with hard bristles nor abrasive sponges or
detergents in order to avoid ruining the surface.
2) Wear anti-cut gloves over or under the common gloves to avoid possible accidents.
3) The table is made of AISI 304 stainless steel, resistant against a lot of solvents and acids except for muriatic acid
that might cause a rust effect.
4) In case of accidental pouring of dangerous or corrosive material, remove every trace of substance immediately.
The prolonged contact of such substances with steel might stain it and, in extreme cases, corrode it.
5) The control panel keys are sealed by a membrane which prevent liquids or dirt from entering. It is recommended,
however, to clean periodically the panel surface with a soft and damp cloth and avoid the contact with
hydrocarbons and chemical substances (xylol, toluol, ecc.) which might damage it.
Maintenance
Daily
- Wash the basins and the working surface using the extractable shower and suitable products.
- Control the outlet of the aspirated basin placed under the perforated working surface, in order to avoid accidental
leaks of liquids in the aspiration chambers.
- In case of use of the garbage disposal unit, observe the instructions in paragraph 9) Garbage disposal unit on
page 18.
Half-yearly
- Control that the filter isn’t obstruct by formalin salts or dust and that isn’t consumed. Effect the replacement if
necessary. The table is, however, provided with visual and acoustic alarm in case of filters saturation.
Annually
Effect the following main operations:
- Verify the wholeness of stainless steel structure (working surface and sinks), power supply cable and aspiration
tube.
- Replace the filter apart form the use of the table.
- Effect the electric controls inspecting control panel and fan.
- Cleaning and general working.
