Location Requirements
Built-in units of incubators can, heating and drying ovens must be operated with an air
exhaust system and exhaust hose (only original Thermo accessory should be used).
.
Fig. 1 Fig. 2
The oven must only be operated in a location that meets all of the ambient
condition requirements listed below:
• Draft-free and dry indoor location.
• The dust burden may not exceed the contamination category 2 based on EN 61010-1.
Using the oven in an atmosphere with electrically conductive dust is prohibited.
• The minimal distance to adjacent surfaces must be observed on all sides
(see section “Space Requirement” on page 3-4.
• The operating room must be equipped with appropriate ventilation.
• Solid, level, fire-proof surface and no flammable materials opposite to the
rear panel of the oven.
• Vibration-proof substructure (floor stand, lab table) capable of bearing the dead
weight of the device and its accessories (particularly if two devices are stacked).
• The ovens have been designed for an operating height of up to 2000 m above sea level.
• To avoid drying operation without an appropriate fresh air supply make sure
that the air inlet (which may be equipped with an optional fresh air filter) is
not obstructed or blocked by any adjacent objects.
• Power line voltage variations must not exceed ±10 % of the nominal voltage.
• Transient overvoltages must not exceed the values usually encountered throughout
the power supply network. The nominal transient overvoltage level shall be the surge
with-stand voltage according to overvoltage category II of IEC 60364-4-443.
• Consider installing one dedicated upstream circuit breaker per oven to avoid
multiple device failures in case of an electrical fault.
Intermediate Storage
When the oven is placed in intermediate storage, which is permissible for a maximum of
four weeks, make sure that the ambient temperature is between 20 °C to 60 °C (68 °F
to 140 °F) and the maximum relative humidity does not exceed 90%, non-condensing.
Room Ventilation
Heat dissipating from the oven during continuous operation may cause a change
in the room climate.
• Therefore, the oven must only be installed in rooms with sufficient ventilation.
• Do not install the oven in room recesses without ventilation.
• When several devices are to be placed in the same room, additional
ventilation may have to be provided as necessary.
• To avoid any impact of the heat dissipated by the oven on the ambient climate the room
must be vented by means of a laboratory-grade ventilation system that complies with
applicable local and national health and safety regulations and has sufficient capacity.
• If excessive temperatures tend to occur in the operating room, be sure to
provide a thermal protection means that cuts out the power supply to mitigate
the impact of overtemperature scenarios.
The oven’s outer surfaces and its air exhaust piping may become hot, so be sure
to maintain the proper spacing from walls and ceilings specified by local building
codes and/or fire protection regulations.
• Mark hot exhaust air piping with appropriate hot surface warning signs or restrict access
to such piping altogether to avoid the risk of injury through contact with hot surfaces.
Space Requirement
For built-in units following clearances should be kept.
Fig. 3
When installing the oven, make sure that the installation and supply
connections remain freely accessible.
The specified side clearances represent minimum distances.

To prevent the top oven from slipping and dropping down, the following
requirements must be fulfilled before devices may be stacked:
• Only two units may be stacked together. When stacking devices with the same
type of enclosure, yet with a different footprint the device with the smaller
footprint must be placed on top of the one with the larger footprint at all times.
• The bottom device must be correctly levelled.
• Be sure to use the appropriate stacking adapter.
• The levelling feet on the top device must be screwed in all the way.
• The levelling feet of the top device must be aligned with and placed exactly on
the stacking pads of the stacking adapter.
• The anti-tilt anchor must be installed on the top device.
The anti-tilt anchor secures the top device in a stack to a solid part of a building.
The anti-tilt anchor is to be mounted on the side opposite of the door hinges.
Bend the fixing tabs of the anti-tilt anchor up on one side and down on the
other by an angle of approx. 90°.
1. Do not use this position if the door is hinged on this side. Right-hand hinges
represent the standard configuration.
2. Preferred position.
3. Alternative position. Do not use if the door is hinged on this side.
Fix the anti-tilt anchor with the bracket side down to the unit (see figure).
Position the unit with the anti-tilt anchor to in an angle of approx. 90° +/- 20%.
Take care that the stacking feet of the unit are still in correct place on the

Safety Devices
The oven is equipped with the following safety features:
• a sample protection feature that safeguards the samples against
destruction through overheating in case of contoller failure;
• an overheat protection cut-out feature that shuts down the oven
completely when excessive temperatures occur in the workspace;
• dual fuses rated at 16 amperes.
Figure 4-9 Sensor Mounting Location - OGS Series and OMS Series -
Table-top units
Figure 4-10 Sensor Mounting Location - OGS Series and OMS Series - Floor
stand units
The work space temperature sensor provides the inputs to the oven’s built-in
controller, which continuously compares the measured values to the user-
specified set value and adjusts the heaters according to the result.
‘
The unit features a thermal protection function that is factory-preprogrammed and not
adjust-able. It protects the samples in the work space from overheating: Thermal
protection kicks in on a brief violation of the upper limit, based on the user-selected
temperature set value, auto-matically reducing the work space temperature to the user-
specified set value and allowing the heating process to continue even in case of a
controller malfunction. If the thermal protection is activated, the error message (E111)
“Temperature too high” appears in the display window and an audible alarm is sounded.
When the user acknowledges the error message, the red alarm icon (D3 in figure 7-1 on
page 7-1) is illuminated and the Temperature Set Value icon (see table 7-3 on page 7-3)
is highlighted by a red border to indicate that thermal protection has kicked in.
RS 232 Interface
The RS- 232 interface (see figure 4-11 on page 4-12) may be used to connect ovens
to the serial interface port of a computer to allow for the computer-aided acquisition
and documentation of major operating parameters (temperature, error codes, etc.).
AC Power Socket
The oven is connected to the AC supply mains via an IEC socket, which accepts
a power cord with an IEC standard plug (see figure 4-11 on page 4-12).
Fuses
‘
Fusing is 3 x 16A for 3P units.
Two 16 A slow-blow fuses mounted on the oven’s main electronic circuit board
protect internal circuitry from the impact of excessive power consumption.
Fuse replacement
The device fuses are not user-serviceable. When the oven exhibits
the typical signs of a blown fuse (no response to pressing the On/Off
button, control panel remains extinguished, no heating operation),
call Customer Service to have the fuses replaced.
Shelf System
The oven is supplied with two wire-mesh shelves. The shelf support rails have an alternating
pattern of oblong and round perforations spaced evenly at 30 mm, allowing the shelf support
brackets to be inserted without any room for error, yet in a very flexible way to accommodate
different heights of sample containers. The shelves have an integrated tilt protection and
withdrawal stop. For details on using the shelf system, see the section “Start-up” on page 5-1.
The tube access ports are mounted in fixed locations in the side and top
panels (see figure 4-15 on page 4-15).

2
Once the cables, tubes or other conduits have been inserted, the tube access
ports must be padded with the heat-resistant fiber pads shipped with the
device and the cap must be mounted to seal the port as far as possible.
Start-up
Initial installation
Heratherm OGS Series ovens have the shelving support rails integrated with the air
baffles, which are readily pre-installed when the devices are shipped from the factory.
Heratherm OMS Series ovens come with separate support rails, which need to
be installed as follows:
• Peel off the protective foil from the support rails.
• Push the retaining spring [1] into the guide on the support rail [2], making
sure that the locking nub [3] on the retaining spring safely engages with the
.
matching hole in the support rail.

over the shelf support brackets.
3. Make sure that the shelves and both of their tilt protection devices are free
to move over the shelf support brackets.
2. Manually adjust the levelling feet until the wire-mesh shelf is horizontally aligned in all
directions. Perform the adjustment of the levelling feet from left to right and from rear to front.
Mains Connection
Electric shock
The oven has a class I, protection-earthed enclosure. To minimize the risk of electrical
shock, use the AC power cord supplied to connect the oven to a correctly installed and
protection-earthed power supply source, with the following features in place for each oven:
• T 16 A slow-blow fusing
3. Route the power cord along a path that does not cross exhaust air piping or
passageways and aisles. With stacked devices, keep the power cord away
from hot spots on the other oven in the stack.
4. Connect the protection-earthed plug of the power cord to a correctly
protection-earthed and earth leakage circuit breaker fused power socket.
5. Make sure the power cord is not subjected to tensile or compressive force.
Condensation
When taking the oven into operation for the first time allow some
time for stabilization before switching on to avoid condensation
forming on live parts.
Users may employ the RS-232 command inventory listed in table 5-1 on page
5-13 below for automating process data logging - for example, by embedding
these commands in scripts that run on a remote computer.
?:aaaa:bb::cc<CR>, where:
— ?: identifies the command line as a query;
— aaaa: is the parameter address;
— bb:: is a query, that must be left at „00” for technical reasons;
Operation
Device Check
Prior to starting operation, the following oven components must be checked for
their correct function:
• The door seal in the front frame must not be damaged.
• The shelving components must be installed safely.
Starting Operation
1. Turn the oven on using the control panel.
2. Adjust the temperature set value on the control panel.

Hot surfaces
Risk of overloading
Proper loading
Heratherm OGS Series and OMS Series ovens come with a front panel mounted
control unit consisting of a multifunctional display, four control buttons, and an on/off
button. The four control buttons interact with the display window to let users access
all of the user control functions and adjustments of the oven, including - for example,
the temperature set value, timer, as well as a variety of other functions.
Under normal operating conditions the display presents user with the work space
temperature. The display returns to its default mode upon completion of
adjustments or whenever no entries have been made for a period of 30 seconds.

Powering Up
1. Plug the power plug of the oven into a suitable protection-earthed AC power outlet.
In the display window on the front panel the readiness indicator icon (top
right item at D3 in figure 7-1 on page 7-1) is illuminated.
An initialization routine will be run after the oven has been powered up. Once
initialization has been completed, the display will light up and the current work
space temperature will appear in the temperature display pane (item D1 in
figure 7-1 on page 7-1). The oven is ready for use now.
The display window goes out, except for the readiness indicator icon
(rightmost icon in the top right item at D3 in figure 7-1 on page 7-1) and a
residual heat temperature readout in case the work space temperature is still
≥ 50 °C/122 °F. The oven is switched off now.
2. If required, unplug the AC power plug to power down the oven completely.
If the display does not go out after pressing the main switch to switch off three-
phase units, unplug the power cord and contact customer service.
Heratherm ovens allow for setting the desired work space temperature directly using only a few
button presses. After confirming the new temperature set value, you may trace the result-ing
temperature change in the temperature display pane (item D1 in figure 7-1 on page 7-1).
You can also use the temperature set value to speed up cool-down subsequent
to a drying or heating process. Temperatures as low as ambient +10 °C can be
selected, this requires open damper and no additional heat in unit. You can set
the oven to a set temperature of 0 °C (32 °F), though, to speed up cool-down.
This is achieved in one single step, as described further below.
Table 7-4 Adjusting the Temperature Set Value
Timer
The Timer feature from the menu bar enables the user to set a “countdown-type”
on or off timer that switches the oven on or off after a preset period of time.
Instructions for setting an off timer are given in table 7-7 on page 7-7 (see
below), while its use as an on timer is described in table 7-8 on page 7-8.
Programming a turn-on time causes the oven to shut down until it is scheduled to restart,
while a turn-off time keeps it running before it shuts down at the user-specified time. The
timer starts running immediately as soon as the user confirms his or her entries.

Configuration
The Settings -> Configuration menu item enables the user to enter a four-digit code that
loads a specific set of operating parameters for the oven - for example, in order to make the
voltage selection described in the section “Connecting the RS-232 Interface” on page 5-11.
Table 7-13Entering the Four-digit Code
Shut-down
This chapter provides instructions for shutting the oven down for prolonged
periods of time, that is, at least for several days in a row.
Cleaning
Incompatible cleaners
Moisture-sensitive components
Do not spray cleaning agent onto the control panel and the control
box at the rear of the oven. When wiping the oven clean, always
make sure that no moisture enters into these components.
Wipe the display window down with a slightly dampened
cloth, then wipe dry with a rag made of 100% microfiber.
Alcoholic disinfectants!
Chloride-containing disinfectants!
Electrical shock
Health hazard
Predisinfection
1. Remove all samples from the work space and store them in a safe place.
2. Spray disinfectant onto the surfaces of the work space and of the
accessories or wipe the surfaces clean using disinfectant.
3. Allow time for the disinfectant to act as specified by the manufacturer.
Moisture-sensitive components
Maintenance
Regular Checks
• Check the oven for overall cleanliness and remove any debris from previous processes.
• To avoid operation without an appropriate fresh air supply, check the air filter
(accessory to be ordered separately) in the air inlet for contamination.
Monthly Inspection
• Check integrity and proper seating of the door seal.
• Swap air filter cartridge (optional) in air inlet.
• Perform functional check of the control panel and of the oven’s built-in controller.
• Perform electrical safety check in accordance with the relevant national regulations.
Functional check
Do not modify the oven in any way without obtaining the prior
written authorization from Thermo Electron LED GmbH.
Unauthorized modifications may compromise operational safety
and give rise to hazards that may result in death, serious
injuries, or damage to the oven and other equipment.
Service Intervals
During ongoing operation, the following service work must be performed:
Annual service
Have the oven inspected and serviced by an authorized Technical Service agent.
Service contract
To minimize temperature variations during the measurement, put the measuring sensor in an
isothermal container (such as a bowl filled with glycerol) before placing it in the work space. Use
the center of the work space as the reference location for the comparison measurement.
Isothermal Container
3. Place the measuring device in the center area of the work space.
Alternatively, a temperature sensor may be positioned in this location.
Route the connecting cable between the glass panel and the interior tank.
4. Close the doors.
5. Wait until the temperature value displayed on the measuring instrument has stabilized.

Contamination hazard
The oven may have been used for treating and processing
infectious substances, which may have caused contamination
of the oven and its components.
Prior to return shipment, it is therefore mandatory that all oven
components be properly decontaminated.
• Clean the oven components thoroughly, then disinfect
or decontaminate them (depending on application).
• Fill in and attach a safety declaration with details on
decontamination activities performed to the items that are
to be repaired.
Disposal
