• Use
The IKA tempering baths HB digital is laboratory device and is
suitable for directly tempering substances filled into the bath con-
tainer.
They are also suitable for indirect tempering of substances filled
in glass containers when the glass containers are immersed in the
actual tempering medium. A rotary glass container is particularly
advantageous, for example, when used in conjunction with an
IKA rotary evaporator.
The device is not intended to pre-
CAUTION
pare food!
• Unpacking
- Unpack the device carefully,
- Any damage should be notified immediately to the shipping
agent (post, rail or logistics company).
Observe the ambient conditions (temperature, humidity, etc.) list-
ed under "Technical Data".
Prior to commissioning the device, determine the filling quantity
of the tempering medium due to the used evaporator piston size
(approx. 2.5 l tempering medium by using a standard 1 l evapora-
tor piston).
• Switch on the device using the mains switch (B).
• At every start, the display will show all display segments (Fig. 2)
and the software version (Fig. 4).
Setting the target temperature
Activate the SET function by turning and pressing the rotating/
pressing knob (C).
• Switch on the device using the mains switch (B), when the ope-
ning screen (Fig. 5) appears and the setting for the safety tem-
perature is activated for 5 seconds. "SAFE TEMP." flashes on the
display, see also "Setting the safety temperature".
• The display then switches from "SAFE TEMP." to "TEMP." and the
SET function is activated. (Fig. 6)

In the event of an error occurred in the control circuit, the heat-
ing bath is switched off permanently by the safety circuit.
An error in the control or safety circuits is shown on the display.
The heating function can no longer be started.
• When switching off the heating function and the medium tem-
perature is higher than 50 °C, the display will alternately show
OFF and HOT (Fig. 6, Fig. 8).
