Eliminating Malfunctions; Maintenance And Cleaning - Artisan Technology Group RV 05 basic Manual De Instrucciones

Note:
- Please note that the heating process takes some time.
- Only fine tune the pressure/temperature parameters once the
bath temperature has been reached.
- Please bear in mind that the cooler load must not exceed
approx. 60%. This corresponds to condensation on approx. 2/3
of the cooling coil.
- Adjust the parameters gradually when using unknown solvents
or mixtures.
- When using mixtures of substances, first be aware of the low-
boiling solvents and work at a low bath temperature initially.

Eliminating malfunctions

The drive is equipped with an overload protection device that will
turn the device off in the event of a long-term overload (motor
overheating). If the device ie turned off during operation and the
orange glow discharge light on the front of the device lights up,
the drive is overheating.
If the evaporator flask is immersed in the bath, it should be remo-
ved from the heat bath immediately by raising the stand. The drive
should be turned off with the On/Off switch and must be left to
cool off for some time.
Important: The device must be turned off to cool down. It will not
turn back on automatically when the motor has cooled of. The
device will not start to run again until it has been turned on again.
If the cooling off phase was too short, the orange glow discharge
light coming on when the device is turned on again will indicate
that the motore is still too hot.
