4 PRECAUTIONS AND HAZARDS
Before attempting to operate the bath read all parts of this
manual carefully to insure smooth operation and avoid
damage to the equipment or its accessories.
If a malfunction occurs, consult section "TROUBLE
SHOOTING", page 34
If a problem persists, call your supplier or Tamson
Instruments B.V. Never operate the equipment if not
correctly installed. The equipment must be operated only
by qualified personnel. Avoid damage to the equipment
or its accessories through incorrect operation.
Environment
Panel sealing Confirms EN60529: IP65
Environment Temperature 0 tot 35°C. Supply enough ventilation
Humidity 5 tot 95 %, non condensating
Atmosphere Not suited for altitudes above 2000m
or
explosive/corrosive environment
Pollution cat. 2 Conducting pollution must be prevented
5 INSTALLATION
Tamson Instruments B.V. is not responsible for any
consequential damage or harm caused by using this
bath. Repairs on the electrical system of the bath may
only be carried out by well trained and authorized
persons.
5.1 UNPACKING
To avoid damage during transport all Tamson baths are
carefully packed for shipment. Check the packaging for
external damage and make a note on the shipping
documents if any damage is found. Always retain the
cartons and packing material until the bath has been
tested and found in good condition. Transport companies
generally will not honor a claim for damages if the
respective box is not available for examination. The
shipment contains at least the bath/circulator. The
consignment may contain other parts, individually packed
in small boxes. Please see packing list for details
concerning total contents of consignment.
Before filling the bath remove any remaining packing
material from its interior. The interior of the bath can be
accessed by taking off the lid on the top of the bath.
Unpack the apparatus with care. Do not use sharp tools for
unpacking, these can damage the bath. Keep the
packaging until you’re fully assured that the apparatus is
READ

functioning properly. In case of return of the apparatus, we
will only accept original packaging.
5.2 INITIAL USE
Before filling the bath make sure that the bath is clean.
Place the bath spirit level, and connect it to the mains
after the mains-switch is placed in “off” position. Use a
mains-supply with proper grounding.
Important: Never use the bath without fluid
Following applies cooling equipment (TLC and TLB):
When the apparatus has been tilted or transported,
allow the bath a few hours for stabilization.
Do not switch on power, because lubrication-oil inside the
compressor system has to run into the capillary.
It will take several hours before the oil has flown back into
the compressor unit. When the apparatus is immediately
turned on after it has been tilted,
damage may occur to the compressor unit due to
insufficient lubrication.
5.3 PLACEMENT AND VENTILATION
The bath has to be placed in a well ventilated area.
Do not place the bath in a dusty environment. Dust will
block the condenser unit inside the apparatus which will
lead to severe mechanical damage.
Air must circulate freely. Keep 10 cm of free space at both
sides and 15 to 20 cm at the rear of the bath.

5.4 FILLING THE BATH
The bath-fluid level must be 10- tot 20 mm below the
edge of the top-plate.
In al cases the heating element must be kept fully
submersed during use. A low fluid level will cause
severe damage to the heating element and also may
cause fire when flamable bath fluid is used.
For working temperatures above +80°C a fluid with a high
boiling point must be used. The bath fluid also has to be
chemically stable and must have low viscosity preventing
damage to the pump. Tamson oil type 150 has these
characteristics and is recommended to use for
temperature ranges which lie between +80°C and
+150°C.
Silicon oil type 200-10 can be used for temperatures
between +20°C en 150°C. This oil also can be used at
higher temperatures but has disadvantages like shorter
lifetime due to coloring and gel-forming.
