1. INTRODUCTION.
1.1. The Integrity 10 Reaction Station’s evolutionary design provides the advanced laboratory with a means for
allowing the users to perform multiple reactions at individually set temperatures both in negative and
positive temperature ranges simultaneously. Each cell position can be heated / cooled and stirred
independently of the cell next to or adjacent to it.
1.2. The versatility of the product means it can be used inside a fume cupboard, mounted into a robotic platform,
coupled together as multiple units for mass multi-sampling or simply operated free standing on a laboratory
work surface. For user safety, low voltage power supplied by the PSU (Power Supply Unit) drives the
Integrity 10. An Ethernet socket provides a means for connecting and controlling the Integrity 10 as part of
an integrated system. RS485 / 232 and GSIOC protocol all add up to make this product perhaps the most
versatile in the market to date.
1.3. Advanced ‘STEM Integrity’ control software available as an accessory augments the versatility of the
product by providing the user with a ‘simple to use’ user friendly, intuitive interface.
1.4. When used with ‘STEM Integrity’ software additional accessories can be added to customise the Integrity 10
specifically for given tasks such as, infrared probes for superior measurement of particles present in any
given solution. Solution sample temperatures in each cell position can be accurately measured using the
Electrothermal ‘Multitemp’ probe set. In addition, PH Probe, Over Head Stirrer and Dossing pumps can all
be added to further enhance your system. The system is completed with a Reflux unit designed to prevent
fluid sample solution losses from open, exposed glass vessels / test tubes. (See accessories or refer to
customer support).
1.5. For standalone use the Integrity 10 is easy to set up using the touch screen. With an intuitive menu system,
operation is both quick and simple allowing the user to set up and operate a simple profile or operate with
full manual control. Furthermore, experiment data can be stored and extracted via a USB flash key. The
look and feel of the menu is akin to that of the ‘STEM Integrity’ application software thus making the
transition from one to another a simple formality. The operating system is MicrosoftWindows CE.
Firmware is stored on the SD card supplied. For new firmware releases simply insert the new SD card.
1.6. The Integrity 10 has the facility to:
Start all cell positions individually or all 10 positions simultaneously.
Input start temperature, ramp rate, dwell time and temperature and decrease ramp rate and final
temperature coupled with stir speed all from one screen using the on screen keyboard.
Name and record an experiment for future referral with information stored for the experiment as entered
by the chemist which may then be extracted using USB flash key.
1.7. Each cell position is heated from a cartridge heater and cooled by a Peltier device, operated from 15 Volts
supplied from the PSU. Connection to an external recirculation coolant system provides a minimum
temperature of -30C, (with coolant at 5C or less). The maximum temperature is +150C.
1.8. Stirring is achieved using a rotating magnet principal with magnetic flux coupling. The Integrity 10 can stir
solution from 350RPM to 1200RPM.

into the socket ensuring the lugs engage and twist the lock ring clockwise to secure. Repeat the
process for attaching the other end of the power cable to the PSU.
5.2. Mechanical Installation.
To ensure efficient heating and cooling, the Integrity 10 cell design incorporates high quality copper heat sink components
that ensure optimum heat transfer between the process and the cooling media.
When good quality coolant water is used, no service problems will be experienced associated with internal corrosion or
blockages. However, if coolant water is deficient ( e.g., hard water, high oxygen content, turbid, contaminated, debris,
etc. and this results in the internal corrosion, or blockage of the cooling system, then this is beyond the control of the
equipment manufacturer. As such Bibby Scientific Limited cannot support warranty claims for blockages, corroded cells
etc. that are attributable to poor quality coolant water.
To guard against poor water quality and its affects, the following recommendations are made.
1. At installation, the end user should ensure that the cooling water supply is of distilled water quality.
2. Additives are not recommended
3. A coolant inline filter is recommended to filter to 75 micron. This should be checked / cleaned at intervals to suit
local operating conditions.
4. Minimal annual service check by Bibby Scientific Limited , or it’s designated service agent, is recommend which
includes flushing / back flushing / removal and inspection of cell conditions for any early signs of coolant water
problems.
5.2.1. Connect the coolant supply to the Integrity 10 unit ensuring the supply outlet feeds the indicated
reaction block inlet and the return is connected to the indicated outlet. Turn on the coolant supply and
check there are no signs of any water leaks around the connectors. (Turn off the chilled water supply
after checking for leaks).
Note: The chilled water flow rate through this equipment must be continuous at minimum rate of 2.5 litres/min at
5  C. The coolant system should be able to dissipate heat energy at 1100W with a coolant temperature of 5  C.
Running all 10 cell positions at -30  without a chilled water set at 5  C supply may cause stress on the electrical
components and result in a reduced performance which may result in shorter service intervals.
Maximum water pressure not to exceed 2 bar, (30Psi).
5.2.2. (PC connect only). Connect the RS232 or data cable between the host PC and the Integrity 10
unit.

Page 12 of 80 M8024 Issue 3.4 For use with master product

The chiller and Integrity 10 complete the full reaction system. For optimised operation observe the following:
Do not set the chiller to operate at temperatures below 5°C.
Do not use a chiller larger than the specification required. See recommended chillers section 11.
Parts and accessories.
When finishing an experiment at an elevated temperature do not chill the cell prior to cell turn off.
To avoid causing stress and shortening the life of the Peltia devices avoid crash cooling cells from
elevated temperatures.
Only operate cells that are in use.
Cells that are chilled below 0°C and operated at such temperatures for very extensive periods will
cause ice formation. Excessive ice prevents the cell from operating efficiently. Avoid such
operation when possible.
Avoid unnecessary use at either ends of the temperature spectrum.
Turn off the unit at the PSU I/O button when the Integrity 10 is not in use.
Please return all replaced cell assemblies to the distributor / manufacturer for green disposal.
Keep chilled water hose length as short as reasonable possible and insulate the hoses to prevent
temperature losses and the accumulation of condensation.
