2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The following instructions must be observed in order
to avoid personnel injury or equipment failure.
CAUTION!
the device must not be run by an operator who
is not acquainted with these instructions;
before turning on the plug in the net contact
check if the voltage in the electrical network
correspond to the working tension. In case of
discrepancy, consult a specialist;
on no account do not alter the device;
the notices and stickers must be kept in good
condition so that they are easily readable; they
should not be removed!
the machine must not function in case of being
damaged and in position to injure the staff or a
third person;
keep the power cable out of heat, oil and coarse
objects; do not catch the device by the cable
when you move it.
switch off the furnace and pull out the plug of
the feeder cable from the contact before each
cleaning or upkeep.
spare parts which are not specified by the
manufacturer cannot be used!
keep from falling and hitting;
to accomplish its functions the device must be
heated so bear in mind the possible dangers of
explosion or emissions of toxic or combustible
gas as a result of the heating of materials in the
device itself. Therefore the machine is
recommended to be placed in a suitable
ventilated spot in the premises.
If the machine is used by such means not indicated by
the manufacturer, the provided protection can get worse!

UNPACKING
CONNECTIONS
ATTENTION!
Carefully remove modules from packages;
Make sure that the mains voltage is ~230V and the
contact is reliably grounded;
Place the device so that the plug is accessible.
Connect the main air to the terminal with label
INPUT AIR on the rear panel. The joining orifice is ø6
sized. The maximum pressure in the mains should not
be higher than 6 Bar.
Connect hose ø8 to the outlet socket OUT and lead it
to the sewage system or to outside container for
collection of the resting liquid. This orifice is placed
on the right side lid of the device.
Do not sink this hose in any liquid, because this might
destroy the unit!
The safety valve is also taken out on the rear panel.
Put the unit in such a position so if this valve is
activated you are able to avoid the damage of
another part. Do not put it on combustibles.

5. PRACTICAL USE
PRESETTINGS
WAY OF USE
The preparation for the work consists in setting of the
needed time and temperature.
The adjustments are done using the selection buttons -
button and button .
After pressing one of these buttons you will see the
current value blinking on the display.
When the indication is blinking, you can change it with
the help of the arrow buttons until you reach the value
required.
To save this value you must press once more the relevant
selection button.
In this way you exit the mode for adjustment of the
parameters and the apparatus switches to the mode
READY FOR WORK.
The polymerization unit has two working temperature
zones which mean that the device can heat at two stages.
For adjustment of the middle stage the same buttons
described above are used but they should be kept
pressed for more than 2 seconds.
The setting of the middle stage is made in the same way
as the final stage.
The middle stage is not accomplished either if the
adjusted temperature is 39°C or if the adjusted time is 0
minutes.
Put a flask in the device. Pour as much liquid as needed
to fill the vessel but below the upper hole. Close the lid
till it reaches the stopper. Start the process by pressing
the button RUN/STOP.
The process can be discontinued any time by pressing the
button RUN/STOP again.
After starting the program you must press the button for
draining of the liquid, the relevant LED flashes and the
liquid will be drained automatically in the end of the
process.
In case you need to drain the liquid manually. This can be
made when the device is not in mode for program
execution. For this purpose the button should be
pressed. Having emptied the device you must press the
same button again so that the electromagnet valve is
closed.

ATTENTION!
THERMAL PROTECTION
If the difference between set temperature and
temperature in the bowl is less than 10°С, to be able to
start a working cycle you must press and hold the RUN
button for several seconds. The unit will start after
issuing a beep.
This unit can work without heating. You can start
different working mode by pressing the two buttons
and simultaneously.
This way pressure air will enter into the vessel and will
stay there for preliminary adjusted time. This mode is
useful for preliminary dry pressing of some flasks.
Do not open the lid of the device before the temperature
is decreased under 100°C since then the water will boil
and there is risk of burn.
Take care of the red silicone sealing ring that is under the
hood. If it is dry, wet it with water before closing the lid to
protect it from accidental damage.
This device is equipped with thermal protection. If the
temperature in the vessel exceeds 150°С a special
component will stop heating.
To restore the normal working you need to:
unplug the device from the socket;
remove the left side cover;
resume normal work by pressing the red button
which is on thermal protection component;
