6.3.1 Incubation time
Press key 20 of the keypad to switch the timer to entry mode.
The display begins to flash and pilot lamp 4 glows (display in minutes). The required incubation time can now by set by
pressing keys 6 (+) and 7 (-) (max. 59 minutes). Press key 21 to confirm the set minutes. The entry mode then switches
to entry of set hours. Pilot lamp 3 glows. Use keys 6 (+) and 7 (-) to set the required incubation time in hours (max. 999
hours). Press key 21 to confirm the set hours. The timer is now activated, the set incubation time starts to run down.
After activation of the timer the set incubation time can only be interrupted or altered by switching the Shaking Incubator
off with the main switch.
The currently remaining run-time is shown in the display. If the remaining run-time is more than one hour, pilot lamp 3
glows. The time is displayed in hours. If the remaining run-time is less than one hour, pilot lamp 4 glows. The time is dis-
played in minutes. While the incubation time is running down, press key 6 to choose between display of the remaining run-
time and the set total run-time. When display of the total run-time is chosen, pilot lamp 5 glows. Approx. 30 seconds
after the last entry, the digital timer switches back to normal operation mode. Expiry of the set incubation time is signalled
by a continuous acoustic alarm. Press key 19 to switch off the alarm signal. The timer merely triggers the alarm signal; the
unit is not switched off automatically.

6.3.2 Incubation temperature
The microprocessor-controlled PID-type regulation permits quick availability of the set temperature, at the same provid-
ing a high temporal temperature constancy of +/- 0.2 K. Display as well as setting the temperature is done digitally on an
LED display, in 0.1 K increments. The operating temperature is approx. 8 K above ambient temperature to 70 °C. The
serial cooling coil for connection to the domestic water supply or to a refrigerated circulator permits operation at set tem-
peratures as of 20 °C.
After switching the unit on, display 8 flashes and shows the last memorized set temperature, pilot lamp 11 glows. Use keys
12 (+) and 13 (-) to enter a new set temperature. Press key 25 to confirm the set temperature. The temperature con-
troller starts operation. Approx. 30 seconds after the last entry pilot lamp 11 goes out and pilot lamp 9 glows. The display
now switches from set temperature to actual temperature.
Three different temperatures can be selected and changed by pressing key 12:
1. Set temperature, pilot lamp 11 glows.
2. Difference point for over-temperature alarm, dependent on the set temperature (set temperature plus differ-
ence point = alarm point), pilot lamp 10 glows. Factory aligned at 04.0 = 4.0 K.
3. Difference point for under-temperature alarm, dependent on the set temperature (set temperature minus dif-
ference point = alarm point), pilot lamp 23 glows. Factory aligned at 09.0 = 9.0 K.
When key 24 is pressed, the displayed set point starts to flash and can be reset through keys 12 (+) and 13 (-). Press key
25 to confirm the new set point. Over-temperature and under-temperature alarms are signalled acoustically as well as
visually by error codes in the display. For further information on this subject, please see chapter 7.1 Error Codes of these
instructions. When opening the Incubator's cover, both heating and shaking drive will be switched off. After closing the
cover, the Incubator will restart with the set values of temperature and shaking frequency.
Caution,
the temperature in the Incubator's interior may rise up to 70 °C during operation. Danger of burns. Wea-
ring suitable safety gloves is recommended.
6.3.3 Shaking frequency
An overload-protected a. c. motor produces an orbital shaking motion with a shaking amplitude of 30 mm through the
robust, durable drive mechanism. The motor is controlled through a PID type microprocessor frequency regulation. The
shaking frequency can be set between 20 min-1 to 250 min-1, independent of the load. It is equipped with a gentle start-
up and can be set in increments of 1 min-1.
Press key 26 to switch the shaking movement on and off. After switching on the shaking device, the Incubator starts shak-
ing with the last set shaking frequency. Pilot lamp 15 glows, display 14 shows the actual shaking frequency. In order to
reset the shaking frequency, first press key 17 and then 27. Pilot lamp 16 glows, the display flashes and shows the set
shaking frequency. Use keys 17 (+) and 18 (-) to reset the displayed value. Press key 28 to confirm the new set value.
Even when the shaking device is switched off, the set shaking frequency can be read by pressing key 17 (pilot lamp 16
glows = set frequency). It can be reset as described above. Approx. 30 seconds after the last entry the Incubator auto-
matically switches back to operation mode (shaking device on or off). To switch off the shaking device, press key 26. The
shaking frequency is cut off slowly, the operation panel is switched off.

12 / 26 Varioshake Shaking Incubator 09/2020
When opening the Shaking Incubator's cover, a control switch will cut off both heating and shaking device. After closing
the cover, the Incubator will restart operation with the set values of temperature and shaking frequency.
Caution:
only after the shaking platform has come to a complete stop, the cover may be opened to reach into the
unit.
RC Operation via PC
An interface module with a terminal on the back of the Incubator produces the data transmission format RS 232. The
interface enables reading of current actual and set values at any time. In order to set values for the temperature and shak-
ing frequency in a defined time-span, the Incubator has to be switched to remote control mode via a PC signal. Being in
remote control mode, the incubator cannot be operated manually. An interface protocol is available for operation of the
Shaking Incubator's RS 232 interface. Please advise model and serial number of the incubator.
Caution:
before operating the unit in RC mode, both unit and interior assembly of the Incubator must be carefully
checked. The Incubator must be operated in direct sight. Take special care in the vicinity of the automati-
cally operated unit.
Shutdown
To turn off the unit for longer shutdown times, first switch the main switch to position O and disconnect the unit from the
mains. Empty the interior, if necessary, dry and clean the interior to prevent bacterial contamination.
7Error Codes and Temperature Cut-out
Error Codes
The alarm functions for over- and under-temperature are switched on once the set temperature
has been reached for the first time after the temperature regulation has been started. Errors that
are due to external influences or to an operational fault are shown acoustically and visually. The
display shows either E01 for over-temperature alarm, or E02 for under-temperature alarm. The
heating is switched off until key 22 is pressed to cut off the alarm signal.
In case of under-temperature the acoustic alarm is cut off immediately, the visual alarm is cut off
after exceeding the set alarm point. In case of over-temperature both acoustic and visual alarms
are switched off at the same time. If the alarm occurs recurrently, the Incubator should be
checked by a trained electrician.

09/2020 Varioshake Shaking Incubator 13 / 26
Temperature Cut-out
As an additional safety precaution to over-temperature and under-temperature alarms, a thermostatic temperature cut-
out protects the unit against overheating. If either temperature regulator or fan motor should fail, the thermostatic over-
temperature cut-out will prevent overheating of the incubator. Only after the unit has cooled down, the temperature cut-
out, which is situated at the back of the Incubator, can be deblocked. For deblocking, loosen the black cap nut on the back
of the unit. Within the thread, a white plastic pin will now be visible which must be gently pushed inside (e.g. with a pen)
until a soft clicking sound can be heard. After deblocking, watch the operation of the Shaking Incubator carefully. If the
fault re-occurs, the cause has to be removed by a trained electrician.
8Functional description
A cover made of 8 mm thick acrylic glass encompasses the cabinet interior. The interior is heated by a heating element in a
temperature range of 20 °C (from approx. 8 K above ambient) to 70 °C. The fan optimises the temperature distribution.
The built-in cooling coil permits works at set temperatures near to the ambient temperature. The temperature controller is
a PID controller and is equipped with a monitoring function that signals malfunctions and switches off the heating in case
of a malfunction.
The shaking device in the cabinet interior is driven by an a.c. motor, is electronically controlled and permits orbital motions
from 20 to 250 min-1 and a fixed shaking amplitude of 30 mm.
The timer allows times to be set between 1 minute and 999 hours and 59 minutes. The timer continuously shows the
current remaining run time and emits an acoustic expiration signal.
The electronic regulation is microprocessor-controlled.
The housing is made of lacquered, moulded ABS resin elements and of electrolytically galvanised and powder-coated
sheet steel. The shaking platform, made of anodised aluminium, is equipped with four plastic pins for secure attachment of
accessory equipment. The heating element and the cooling coil as well as the rear wall and bottom plate of the interior are
made of stainless steel.
An RS 232 interface, set into the rear side of the unit, not only serves to register set and actual values of temperature and
shaking frequency, but also for remote operation through PC.
9Maintenance, Support and Repair
Caution:
Before opening the Distillation Apparatus as well as before cleaning procedures, discon-
nect the unit from the mains! (Unplug the unit or switch off the main switch).
Danger of electrical shock!
Cleaning and Disinfection
The lacquered or powder-coated surfaces of the housing, the shaking platform made of anodised aluminium and the acryl-
ic glass cover may be cleaned with mild, non-abrasive and pH neutral detergents. Never use solvent-containing cleaning
agents. The stainless steel surfaces of the interior can be cleaned and the original shine be restored with commercial stain-
less steel polishing agents (e. g. “Helios Brillant“ from M/s Ecolab).
To disinfect the Shaking Incubator by a wipe process, approved disinfecting agents with proven compatibility with stainless
steel, lacquered or powder-coated steel and ABS resin elements, aluminium or acrylic glass can be used. The instructions
for use of the disinfectant must by all means be observed. If in doubt, test the disinfectant in a small local area. Should the
Incubator have been contaminated with dangerous substances, cleaning and decontamination measures must be carried

14 / 26 Varioshake Shaking Incubator 09/2020
out according to the safety data sheets of these substances. It may be necessary afterwards to have the unit tested for
function and safety by a trained electrician or by the service department in the manufacturing plant.
Temperature Adjustment
LAUDA Varioshake Shaking Incubators are set and adjusted at a temperature of 45 °C. Instructions for adjustment of the
temperature regulator are available on request for adjustment purposes during maintenance. Please state model and serial
numbers of the Shaking Incubator.
Checking the Acrylic Glass Cover
The acrylic glass cover is connected to the unit's housing by hinges. The closing motion of the cover is
slowed down by two gas pressure springs for safety reasons. The safe function of these gas pressure springs
must be checked in regular intervals when opening and closing the cover. Make sure that the cover does
not fall down undamped.
Shutdown caused by overload or power failure
The drive motor of the shaking device is protected against over-heating due to overload. The device will be switched off.
Caution, after the motor has cooled down, the shaking device restarts automatically (without gentle start-up control).
After a mains failure, the Incubator does not restart automatically, but has to be started as described in chapter 6.
Exchanging the fuses
The unit's two fuses are situated in a drawer below the unit's plug. In order to check or to exchange these
fuses, press the fixing clips on both sides of the drawer and pull.
The fuses may only be exchanged against 4 Amp fuses of the same type. Information on the fuse type can
be found on the nameplate next to the unit plug and in the spare parts list of these operating instructions. If
the unit is shut down due to an operation fault, always switch it off on the main switch before opening the cover and
touching parts in the unit's interior.
