2. Safety precautions
The following symbols mean:
Caution! Make sure you have fully read and understood the present Manual
before using the equipment. Please pay special attention to sections
marked by this symbol.
Caution! Hot surface! Incubator surface and inner camera may become very
hot during use. Always use protective cotton gloves to install or re-
move samples when the temperature is set higher than 60°C.
GENERAL SAFETY
The protection provided can be ineffective if the operation of the appliance does not
comply with the manufacturer's requirements.
Save the unit from shocks and falling.
After transportation or storage and before connecting it to the electric circuit, keep the
unit under room temperature for 2-3 hrs.
Store and transport the unit at ambient temperatures between -20°C and +60°C and
maximum relative humidity of 80%.
Before using any cleaning or decontamination methods except those recommended
by the manufacturer, check with the manufacturer that the proposed method will not
damage the equipment.
Do not make modifications in design of the unit.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Connect only to the mains with voltage corresponding to that on the serial number
label.
Do not plug the unit into an ungrounded power socket, and do not use an ungrounded
extension lead.
Ensure that the power plug is easily accessible during use.
Disconnect the unit from the mains before moving.
If liquid penetrates into the unit, disconnect it from the mains and have it checked by
a repair and maintenance technician.
Do not operate the unit in premises where condensation can form. Operating condi-
tions of the unit are defined in the Specifications section.
DURING OPERATION
Make sure that all sample vessels are tightly sealed. Humidity caused by evaporation
from unsealed vessels inside the incubator will damage the unit.
Do not operate the unit in environments with aggressive or explosive chemical mix-
tures. Please contact manufacturer for possible operation of the unit in specific at-
mospheres.
Do not operate the unit if it is faulty or has been installed incorrectly.
Do not use outside laboratory rooms.
Do not place a load exceeding the maximum load value mentioned in the Specifica-
tions section of this manual.
BIOLOGICAL SAFETY
The user is responsible to carry out appropriate decontamination if hazardous mate-
rial spills on or penetrates into the equipment.

3. General information
ES-20/80 shaker-incubator for biotechnological and pharmaceutical laboratories is a
professional category equipment. The typical applications include - microbial and cell culture
cultivation, protein expression, solubility studies, general mixing, as well as other various
applications in the fields of biology and chemistry. The unit is equipped with a newly devel-
oped triple eccentric mechanism for platform motion that provides supreme balancing char-
acteristics, superior reliability and quiet operation. The achieved stability of the unit during
vigorous mixing allows for stacking installation of up to 3 units which enables to save space.
The new display and easy to use user interface provide a clear and intuitive control
of parameters and allow data logging, storage and display over time. Additional features like
out of balance sensor and automatic thermostat failure detection make this shaker-incubator
an advanced and safe product. Bluetooth connectivity to PC allows for data management,
data logging, parameter control and profiling in a dedicated software that can be requested
separately.
A built-in heat-resistant brushless fan provides precise temperature distribution inside
the chamber (from 10°C above ambient up to +80°C). Additionally, excellent sample tem-
perature uniformity of ±0.5 °C at 37 °C is achieved. The inner chamber is made of stainless
steel. State-of-the-art motor, thermal insulation materials and parameter PID-control de-
crease the energy consumption and make the shaker-incubator highly energy efficient de-
spite its relatively large size.
4. Getting started
4.1. Unpacking. Remove packing materials carefully and retain them for future shipment
