Safety Notes
Basic Operating Precautions
These operating instructions describe Heratherm refrigerated incubators.
Heratherm refrigerated incubators have been manufactured to the latest state of the art and
have been tested thoroughly for flawless functioning prior to shipping. However, the
refrigerated incubator may present potential hazards, particularly if it is operated by
inadequately trained personnel or if it is not used in accordance with the intended purpose.
Therefore, the following must be observed for the sake of accident prevention:
• Never step into the unit.
• Heratherm refrigerated incubators must be operated by adequately trained and authorized
professional personnel.
• Heratherm refrigerated incubators must not be operated unless these operating
instructions have been fully read and understood.
• The present operating instructions, applicable safety data sheets, plant hygiene guidelines
and the corresponding technical rules issued by the operator shall be used to create written
procedures targeted at personnel working with the subject matter device, detailing:
• the decontamination measures to be employed for the refrigerated incubator and the
accessories used with it,
• the safety precautions to be taken when processing specific agents,
• wearing protective equipment when handling e.g. microbiological and biological
samples
• the measures to be taken in case of accidents.
• Repair work on the refrigerated incubator must be carried out only by trained and
authorized expert personnel.
• The contents of these operating instructions are subject to change at any time without
further notice.
• Concerning translations into foreign languages, the German version of these operating
instructions is binding.
• Keep these operating instructions close to the refrigerated incubator so that safety
instructions and important information are always accessible.
• Drying time after decommissioning, as Transport 2 hours.

Safety Notes
Operational Safety Rules
1-2 Heratherm IMP Thermo Scientific
• Should you encounter problems that are not detailed adequately in these operating
instructions, please contact Thermo Electron LED GmbH immediately for your own
safety.
Operational Safety Rules
The following rules must be heeded when working with Heratherm refrigerated incubators:
• Observe the sample weight limits specified for your Heratherm refrigerated incubator as a
whole and its shelving in particular; see “Technical Data” on page 13 1.
•Arrange the samples evenly throughout the work space, making sure not to place them too
closely to the interior walls to ensure a uniform temperature distribution.
• Do not load your Heratherm refrigerated incubator with substances that exceed the
capabilities of the available lab apparatus and Personal Protection Equipment to provide
sufficient degrees of protection to users and third parties.
• Check the door seal every six months for proper sealing performance and possible damage.
• Do not process any samples containing hazardous chemical substances that may be
released into the ambient air through defective seals or may cause corrosion or other
defects on parts of the Heratherm refrigerated incubator.
• The tempering of defined substances or materials with higher moisture content can result
in increased condensation in the chamber. Measures on page 6 2 must be observed.
Warranty
Thermo Fisher Scientific warrants the operational safety and functions of the Heratherm
refrigerated incubators only under the condition that:
• the refrigerated incubator is operated and serviced exclusively in accordance with its
intended purpose and as described in these operating instructions,
• the refrigerated incubator is not modified,
• only original spare parts and accessories that have been approved by Thermo Scientific are
used (third party spares without Thermo Scientific approval void the limited warranty),
• inspections and maintenance are performed at the specified intervals,
• an operation verification test is performed after each repair activity.
The warranty is valid from the date of delivery of the refrigerated incubator to the customer.
