Electrical Installation

THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE EARTHED
Before connection please ensure that the line
supply corresponds to that shown on the rating
plate.
Model Supply requirements
SI505 230V, 50 Hz,
The model is supplied with two mains leads fitted with
IEC plugs for connection to the instrument. One has
a U.K. 3 pin plug and the other has a 2 pin "Shuko"
plug for connection to the mains. Choose the lead
appropriate for your electrical installation and discard
the other. Should neither lead be suitable, take the lead
with the U.K. plug and replace the plug with a suitable
alternative. This involves cutting off the moulded plug,
preparing the cable and connecting to the re-wireable
plug in accordance with its instructions.
THIS OPERATION SHOULD ONLY BE UNDERTAKEN
BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN
NOTE: Refer to the equipment's rating plate to ensure
that the plug and fusing are suitable for the voltage and
wattage stated
The wires in the mains cable are coloured as follows:
BROWN
BLUE
GREEN/YELLOW
The instrument is fitted with an IEC socket at the rear
of the instrument for connection of the mains lead. The
appropriate mains lead should be connected BEFORE
connection to the mains supply.
Should the mains lead need replacement, a cable of
1mm2 of harmonised code H05W-F connected to an
IEC320 plug should be used.
IF IN DOUBT CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN

motor stall), the unit will continue operating on
removal of interruption.

General Description

Power
The Stuart SI505 microtitre plate shaker incubator is
250W ideal for mixing and aerating samples in microtitre
plates or micro centrifuge tubes under accurate
temperature controlled conditions. High speed
combined with a tiny orbit creates the vibrational
shaking action required for very small sample volumes.
The retractable platform allows for easy access when
loading or unloading samples. This has a non-slip mat
to hold microtitre plates in place and micro centrifuge
tubes of various sizes can be held in purpose built
accessory racks.
The incubator chamber is fitted with two water
reservoirs which allow the humidity of the chamber to
be increased, thus reducing the possibility
loss due to evaporation over longer incubation
periods.

Some parts of the incubator may become hot
during use. These are clearly marked with
warning labels and include the heated base and
steel parts of the water reservoirs. Avoid touching
these parts when the incubator is running.
