Explanation of Temperature Control Terms Accuracy We do not provide, claim or assure any form of accuracy. Accuracy is defined as "the ability of a measurement to match the actual value of the quantity being measured". For accuracy we recommend using a calibrated reference probe at the actual set point temperature and where necessary, adjust the set point accordingly. Sensitivity For an explanation of sensitivity consider a unstirred digital water bath, the PID temperature control system measures and displays the actual temperature of the water and then compares it with the ‘set point’ temperature. It automatically calculates and adjusts the required quantity of heat into the bath to make the measured temperature equal to the set temperature. As with any process there is a time delay between measuring the temperature and the heat entering the water, which causes minor fluctuations in the temperature of the bath. Heat is also distributed in an unstirred bath by convection and conduction and there are heat losses from the surface of the liquid which can cause temperature losses. These losses and heat distribution produce small fluctuations in temperature across the water in the bath. These small temperature fluctuations at any one point are defined as “sensitivity” and vary between an upper and lower limit, however occasionally a larger variation can be observed. Sensitivity as stated in DIN 58966 is the temperature difference between the upper and lower temperature level over 100 cycles after removing the largest 25% of readings. We determine sensitivity by recording the actual upper and lower temperatures of the bath using temperature loggers and is stated as plus or minus one half of the measured value. Uniformity Uniformity is calculated by measuring the temperature in opposing ends of the water bath and is the difference between the mean temperatures at these two points and stated as plus or minus half this value.

Cleaning General Important - please follow these instructions to avoid possible damage to the unit, otherwise affecting its performance and warranty. Always disconnect the product from the electrical supply before cleaning. Cleaning External Painted Surfaces featuring “Anti-bacterial Paint Finish” The water bath should be cleaned at regular intervals wiping external surfaces with a cloth or sponge soaked in warm soapy water with a mild detergent. All surfaces should be cleaned using a soft cloth or sponge. Do not under any circumstances use strong solvents or solutions containi ng Chlorinated Hydocarbons, Esters, Ketones or abrasive cleaners or polish on the paint finish otherwise it damages the built in anti-bacterial properties. All painted surfaces on Clifton range products features an “Anti-bacterial paint finish” identified with this authenticating logo on the unit. This “Anti-bacterial paint finish” inhibits the growth of bacteria. It has been tested by independent specialist test houses such as the Law Laboratories (in the UK) using internationally recognized test methods and proven to be effective versus a wide range of bacteria species including Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). We recognise hygienic coatings are part of a controlled approach to a cleaner working environment. Within its formulation an active ingredient with proven anti-bacterial properties is bound into the paint finish. The efficacy of the paint finish applied to the Clifton range is maintained over its lifetime, as the anti-bacterial agent is integral within the paint. In a laboratory environment it makes this one less source of contamination, contributing to essential clean working practices. A benefit of such a paint finish can lead to a reduction in cleaning schedules because surfaces are more protected and improves protection between cleaning. Unlike detergents “Anti-bacterial paint finish” does not offer an instantaneous action, but is intended for long-term general protection against bacterial growth. Moisture on the painted surface is necessary for the bacterium to absorb the agent and be affected by it. The coating is therefore less active in very dry conditions, but dependent upon relative humidity, moisture in the atmosphere maintains activity. Areas where moisture is trapped are also areas that normally are difficult to clean and where bacteria proliferate but these areas are most active for the anti-bacterial coating improving the defence against bacterial growth. Cleaning the Stainless Steel Tank The stainless steel crevice free tank with smooth corners should provide years of valuable service and is resistant to chloride containing solutions it is however important to avoid high concentrations of halogens - especially chloride. With such a high quality and resistant tank it may show symptoms of these halogens as rust, which are deposits from external sources in the water supply. We recommend always empty the bath of liquid after use and wipe out the internal faces of the tank with a non-abrasive cloth and allow to dry. Any deposits can be removed with nitric acid (10%) on a cloth. WEAR PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT! It is also recommended to use an accessory lid to prevent contaminates landing in bath liquids.

Descaling the Stainless Steel Tank Descale the stainless steel tank regularly to maintain it in as new condition ensuring the corrosion resistance and normal operating conditions are maintained throughout its working life. Descale by adding 1 litre of vinegar to water and gently heating to 50°C for an hour, empty and brush the lime away. Rinse thoroughly afterwards. Decontamination of Equipment Clifton laboratory equipment can be decontaminated after spillage or contact with potentially HIV and Hepatitis infected blood samples during analysis using following recommended rapid disinfectants. Virucidal Disinfectant We recommend Virkon tablets for the safe and rapid disinfection of equipment in a wide variety of situations available from your distributor or contact Day-Impex Ltd. for more details. Telephone: 44+(0)1787 223232 or http://www.day-impex.co.uk The ultimate high level surface disinfectant, dissolve VIRKON in water, providing a safe working solution with a faint lemon odor. It has proven efficacy against bacteria (including mycobacteria), viruses, spores and fungi in a variety of independent tests using different protocols. Presents no serious long term health risks to staff – obviating the need for costly ventilation equipment and health monitoring. Also provides high level disinfection of laboratory equipment and instruments where autoclaving is neither practical nor necessary. For more detailed information relating to how Virkon should be used with access to test reports www.relyon.dupont.com Is Virkon solution corrosive? Virkon solution requires only 10 minutes contact time to be effective so long-term exposure is not necessary and therefore will not corrode most materials. Care should be taken with Stainless steel water bath tanks, these surfaces should not be affected however, it is important that generally you do not leave Virkon solution in contactwith metal surfaces “FOR LONGER THAN IS NECESSARY”. Virkon is Registered in accordance with the requirements of the Medical Devices Directive, (93/42/ EEC) as a Medical Device. Disinfectant/Sterilant We recommend PeraSafe a powder product for the safe and rapid chemical sterilant of equipment in a wide variety of situations available from your distributor or contact Day-Impex Ltd for more details. Telephone: 44+(0)1787 223232 or http://www.day-impex.co.uk PeraSafe has a proven safety profile for end-users with none of the undesirable properties of skin sensitisation, toxic fumes or unpleasant odours that are associated with aldehyde solutions.
