1.2 Product safety and dangers
The appliances described in this manual are technically sophisticated, manufactured
using high-quality materials and subject to many hours of testing in the factory. They
reflect the state of the art and comply with recognised technical safety regulations.
However, there are still risks involved, even when the appliances are used as intended.
These are described below.
Live components may be exposed once the covers have been removed.Touching these
can lead to an electric shock. Disconnect the mains plug before removing any covers.
Work on the electrical system must only be performed by qualified electricians.
Leaving the door open during operation can cause the appliance to overheat or pose
a fire hazard. Do not leave the door open during operation.
When loading the appliance with an unsuitable load, poisonous or explosive vapours
or gases may be produced. This could cause the appliance to explode, and persons
could be severely injured or poisoned. The appliance may only be loaded with mate-
rials / test objects that do not emit any poisonous or explosive vapours when heated
up.
With appliances above a specific size, you could become accidentally locked inside,
which could put you at risk of death.
Do not climb into the appliance!
Depending on operation, the surfaces in the interior of the appliance and the chamber
load may still be very hot after the appliance is switched off. Touching these surfaces
can cause burns. Wear heat-resistant protective gloves or wait until the appliance
cools down after switching off before touching.

1.5 Intended use
Constant climate chambers HPPeco and cooled incubators IPPecoplus may be used
exclusively for temperature and climate testing of materials and substances in the con-
text of the procedures and specifications described in this manual. Any other use is
improper and may result in hazards and damage.
The appliance is not explosion-proof (does not comply with the German occupational
health and safety regulation VBG 24). The appliance may only be loaded with materials
and substances which cannot form any toxic or explosive vapours at the set tempera-
ture and which cannot explode, burst or ignite.
The appliance may not be used to dry, vaporise or brand materials for which the pur-
chasing or its components constitutes a risk of fire and/or explosion, especially if the
solvents of these materials could form an explosive mixture when combined with air. If
there is any doubt as to the composition of materials, they must not be loaded into the
appliance. Potentially explosive gas-air mixtures must not form, neither in the chamber
nor in the direct vicinity of the appliance.

2.2 Description
Appliance size 110 to 1060 Description
HPPeco & IPPecoplus The appliance can heat the interior up to +70 °C and cool it down to +5 °C. Low-noise,
long-life and energy-saving Peltier cooling and heating technology is used for this. In
heating operation, a part of the required energy is extracted from the surroundings
(heat pump principle).
HPPeco Additionally, the humidity in the interior can be regulated between 10% rh and 90% rh
(rh = relative humidity). The humidity is increased by the evaporation of water from
a tank which is then fed into the interior and reduced by condensation on a Peltier
module.
Optionally, the appliance can be equipped with a light module, making it possible to
adjust the interior lighting in steps of 1 %.
Appliance size 1400 to 2200 Description
HPPeco & IPPecoplus The appliance can heat the interior up to 60 ºC and cool it down to 15 ºC. Low-noise,
long-life and energy-saving Peltier cooling and heating technology is used for this. In
heating operation, a part of the required energy is extracted from the surroundings
(heat pump principle).
Constant climate chambers HPPeco Additionally, the humidity in the interior can be regulated between 15% rh and 80% rh
(rh = relative humidity). The humidity is increased by the evaporation of water from
a tank which is then fed into the interior and reduced by condensation on a Peltier
