General information
D39166 | date 09/2019
1. General information
Two ICO (ICOmed) incubators or two HCP humidity chambers of the same size can be
stacked on top of each other.
For secure stacking, stacking corners must be inserted in all four corners on the under-
side of the upper appliance. The upper appliance is fastened to the lower appliance using
the weight of the appliance itself.
1.1 Tilt protection
Due to the increased risk of overturning, size 150 and 240 appliances are also secured
using a connecting plate and two adjustable wall brackets on the rear panel.
1.2 Stacking process
►Size 150 appliances can be manually stacked by four people.
►Due to their height and weight, size 240 appliances must be stacked using an electric
manual pallet jack. For mounting purposes, the lower appliance must stand on a sub-
frame.
1.3 Stacking element
Due to their weight, size 240 appliances must be mounted using elevated stacking cor-
ners, which facilitate stacking using an electric manual pallet jack.
1.4 Mobile sub-frame (optional)
The “mobile sub-frame” option enables the stacked appliances to be moved slightly for
servicing purposes.
1.5 Installation requirements
Ensure that the floor of the installation site is pressure-resistant, stable and level and that
it is capable of reliably bearing the weight of two loaded appliances, as well as that there
is sufficient headroom. The wall structure should have a sufficiently static load-bearing
capability for mounting the wall bracket.
1.6 Required tools and materials
►Drill
►Torx screwdriver size 15
►Drill for wall plugs
►Allen key size 2.5
►Wall plugs or similar for fastening the appliance to the wall (not included in the scope
of delivery)
►Electric manual pallet jack (for size 240 appliances)

Safety regulations
D39166 | date 09/2019
2. Safety regulations
WARNING
Because of the heavy weight of the appliance, you could injure
yourself if you try to lift it. At least two people are needed to carry
size 50 appliances, and four people are required for size 105 and 150
appliances. Appliances larger than that may not be carried, but must
be transported using a manual pallet jack or forklift truck.
50 105 150 240
WARNING
The stacked appliances could fall over and cause serious injury if
they are not secured against falling over. The appliances should nev-
er be installed as a free-standing unit, but should always be fixed to
a wall.
CAUTION
You may get your hands or feet squashed when transporting
and installing the appliance. Wear protective gloves and safe-
ty boots. Only grasp the appliance at the sides of the base:
