For your protection
• Read the operating instructions in full before starting up
and follow the safety instructions.
• Follow the safety instructions, guidelines, occupational health
and safety and accident prevention regulations.
• Keep the operating instructions in a place where they can be
accessed by everyone.
• Ensure that only trained staff work with the appliance.
•
The device must be supervised at all times when in operation.
• Caution! For research purposes only! Not suitable for di-
agnostic use (in accordance with the IVD Directive).
The device must only be operated with a tube
attached; with no tube there is a risk of injury
from the rotating locating pin.
• Hearing protection must be worn when working with BMT-20
or BMT-50 tubes.
Wear your personal protective equipment in
accordance with the hazard category of the
medium to be processed. There is a risk of:
- splashing liquids
- projectile parts
- body parts, hair, clothing and jewellery getting caught.
• Set up the device in a spacious area on an even, stable, clean,
non-slip, dry and fireproof surface.
• The feet of the
device must be clean and undamaged.
• The
device is not suitable for manual operation.
• The
device may heat up when in use.
•
Check the device and accessories beforehand for damage each
time when you use them. Do not use damaged components.
• Ensure that the cover on the tube is screwed on tightly.
• Ensure that the tube is firmly attached to the bayonet lock con-
nector on the drive unit prior to operating the device.
• The tube must only be attached and removed while the motor
is stationary.
The IKA tubes must always be closed when the
device is in operation. Switch off the device im-
mediately if any material leaks from the tube. Clean the device.
• Always open the tube carefully after use as the media in the
tube may heat up due to transfer of energy during operation,
leading to pressurization of the container: risk of material spray-
ing, protective equipment must be worn.
• The temperature of the material must not exceed 40 °C.
• Only use tubes approved by IKA.
•
Only process media that will not react dangerously to the extra
energy produced through processing. This also applies to any extra
energy produced in other ways, e.g. through light irradiation.
• Do not use the device in explosive atmospheres, it is not EX-
protected.
•
With substances capable of forming an explosive mixture, appropriate
safety measures must be applied, e.g. working under a fume hood.
• To avoid body injury and property damage, observe the relevant
safety and accident prevention measures when processing haz-
ardous materials.
• The device doesn’t start up again automatically following a cut
in the power supply.
• Safe operation is only guaranteed with the accessories described
in the ”Accessories” chapter.
For protection of the device
• The voltage stated on the name plate must correspond to the
mains voltage.
• The device must only be operated with the original plug-in pow-
er supply unit.
•
Protect the device and accessories from bumps and impacts.
• The device may only be opened by experts.

XNote: When the DIS 300-S-M tube is used, please remove the
drain opening plug and connect the included plastic hose to the drain
opening before operation!
Thus, the liquid can be drained out to a suitable vessel (more than
300 ml) in case of leakage of the DIS-300 S-M.
The vessel must be underneath the device and the hose mustn’t
bend upwards).
For removing the plastic hose, press the flange of the drain open-
ing, meanwhile, pull the plastic hose out.

Useful facts
Changes in viscosity and volume caused by processing of disper-
sion media may cause small fluctuations in the speed of the device.

Interfaces and outputs
Remote control:
The device can be operated in “Remote” mode via USB interface us-
ing labworldsoft
®
laboratory software. The USB interface is located
on the back side on the device and can be connected to a PC using
the USB cable.
Note: Please note the system requirements as well as the operating
instructions and help section included within the software.
USB Interface:
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus for connecting the
device to the PC. Equipped with USB devices can be connected to
a PC during operation (hot plugging). Connected devices and their
properties are automatically recognized. Use the USB interface in
conjunction with labworldsoft
®
for operation in "Remote" mode
and also to update the firmware.
7
Installation:
First, download the latest driver for IKA devices with USB interface
from: http://www.ika.com/ika/lws/download/usb-driver.zip.
Install the driver by running the setup file. Then connect the
IKA device through the USB data cable to the PC. The data
communication is via a virtual COM port. Configuration, command
syntax and commands of the virtual COM ports are as described
in RS 232 interface.
Command syntax and format:
The following applies to the command set:
- Commands are generally sent from the computer (Master) to
the device (Slave).
- The device sends only at the computer’s request. Even fault in-
dications cannot be sent spontaneously from the device to the
computer (automation system).
- Commands are transmitted in capital letters.
- Commands and parameters including successive parameters are
separated by at least one space (Code: hex 0x20).
- Each individual command (incl. parameters and data) and each
response are terminated with Blank CR LF (Code: hex 0x20 hex
0x0d hex 0x20 hex 0x0A) and have a maximum length of 80
characters.
- The decimal separator in a number is a dot (Code: hex 0x2E).
The above details correspond as far as possible to the recommen-
dations of the NAMUR working party (NAMUR recommendations
for the design of electrical plug connections for analogue and
digital signal transmission on individual items of laboratory control
equipment, rev. 2.9).
• Range of use (indoor use only):
- Laboratories - Schools
- Pharmacies - Universities
The device is suitable for use in residential areas and all other areas.
The safety of the user cannot be guaranteed:
- If the device is operated with accessories that are not supplied or
recommended by the manufacturer
- If the device is operated improperly contrary to the manufacture’s
specifications
- If the device is operated improperly contrary to the manufacturer’s
specifications.

20
The NAMUR commands and the additional specific IKA commands
commissioning serve only as low level commands for communica-
tion between the tube driver and the PC. With a suitable terminal
or communications program these commands can be transmitted
directly to the tube driver. The IKA software package, labworldsoft,
provides a convenient tool for controlling tube driver and collecting
data under MS Windows, and includes graphical entry features, for
motor speed ramps for example.
The following table summarize the (NAMUR) commands under-
stood by the tube drive control up to Version 2.9.

safe operation can not be guaranteed
and/or the equipment may be dam-
aged.
