Delivery and Installation

2.1

Unpacking and Checking of the Delivered Parts

1. For transport to the working place please note the
weight of the shaker and the accessories included in the
delivery. Use only suitable transport means.
2. During unpacking carefully check whether the delivery
is complete, according to your order. Especially
carefully check all parts for damages that may be
caused by transport.
3. The mains supply at the working place must correspond
to the mains specifications of the shaker. Admissible
mains supplies are 230 V, 50 - 60 Hz, 0.8 A or 115 V,
50 - 60 Hz, 1.6 A, for instance. Check on the type
plate, whether the shaker has the correct power ratings.
Modifications of the CERTOMAT ® S-II for different
•
mains supplies or changes of the mains cable according
to local standards will be done and checked in the
factory or by Sartorius AG customer service in place.
The unit will be labelled correspondingly.
If the CERTOMAT ® S-II delivered to you has the wrong
4.
mains specifications, if any parts are damaged or are
missing or in case of malfunctioning, you should return
your claim note to your Sartorius Stedim Biotech GmbH
representative or directly to Sartorius Stedim Biotech
GmbH.
Installation of the CERTOMAT ® S-II
2.2
You can place the CERTOMAT ® S-II on any steady,
1.
common laboratory bench or table. The working place
should offer sufficient space for placement and
operation of the unit. Note these dimensions of the
basic shaker (without mountings and accessories):
- Dimensions W x H x D = 511 x 160 x 545 mm
(basic unit with tray support)
- Weight: 46 kg
- Load: depending on type of tray, selected
mounting system and applied containers.
2. Make sure, that the base is stable enough to carry the
weight of the completely equipped shaker and can
resist vibrations caused by its operation.
The action of the loaded trays causes vibrations, which
will change with load and shaking frequency. These
vibrations cannot be fully compensated by the internal
balance weight. Especially at heavy loads (> 10 kg) and
high shaking frequencies the vibrations can be
transmitted to the working place.
Under unfavorable circumstances the interaction of load
and shaking frequency can cause the shaker to move
over the working place.
3. The working place should have an antiskid surface. For
stable standing of the shaker during operation you may
clean the table and the stands with a wet cloth before
starting operation.
4. After placement of the shaker at the working place
carefully adjust the unit horizontally. An unbalanced
placement can result in to faster wear and tear of the
internal drive, especially if the unit is often applied with
heavy loads and/or at high shaking frequencies.
5. Place equipment around in such a way that it cannot be
interfered by the shaker's action.
