2. Chamber description
The drying and heating ovens with forced convection and advanced program functions APT.line™ M are
specially developed precision warming chamber with high capacity. They are equipped with a multifunc-
tional microprocessor display controller with a digital display accurate to one-tenth of a degree. With their
comprehensive program control functions, they allow the high precision performance of temperature cy-
cles with fast heating-up phases.
The APT.line™ preheating chamber system guarantees high level of spatial and time-based temperature
precision, thanks to the direct and distributed air circulation into the interior. The fan supports exact at-
tainment and maintenance of the desired temperature accuracy.
The high-quality housing insulation ensures both a low noise mode of operation and a consistently low
housing temperature. The inner chamber, the pre-heating chamber and the interior side of the doors are
all made of stainless V2A (German material no. 1.4301, US equivalent AISI 304). When operating the
chamber at temperatures above 150 °C / 302 °F, the impact of the oxygen in the air may cause discolora-
tion of the metallic surfaces (yellowish-brown or blue) by natural oxidation processes. These colorations
are harmless and will in no way impair the function or quality of the chamber. The housing is RAL 7035
powder-coated. All corners and edges are also completely coated.
All chamber functions are easy and comfortable to use thanks to their clear arrangement. Major features
are easy cleaning of all chamber parts and avoidance of undesired contamination.
The chambers are equipped with a serial interface RS 422 for computer communication, e.g. with the
APT-COM™ 4 Multi Management Software (option, chap. 11.1) For further options, see chap. 15.4.
The M 720
model is equipped with four castors. Both front castors can be easily locked via the attached
brakes.
At an ambient temperature of +18 °C up to +40 °C / 64.4 °F to 104 °F, you can operate the chamber in a
temperature range from 5 °C / 9 °F above ambient temperature up to 300 °C / 572 °F.

• The domestic socket must also provide a protective conductor. Make sure that the connection of the
protective conductor of the domestic installations to the chamber’s protective conductor meets the lat-
est technology. The protective conductors of the socket and plug must be compatible!
• Prior to connection and start-up, check the power supply voltage. Compare the values to the specified
data on the chamber’s type plate (chamber front behind the door, bottom left-hand, see chap. 1.4)
• When connecting, please observe the regulations specified by the local electricity supply company as
well as the VDE directives (for Germany). We recommend the use of a residual current circuit breaker.
• Pollution degree (acc. to IEC 61010-1): 2
• Over-voltage category (acc. to IEC 61010-1): II
CAUTION
Danger of incorrect power supply voltage.
Damage to the equipment.
Check the power supply voltage before connection and start-up.
Compare the power supply voltage with the data indicated on the type plate.
See also electrical data (chap. 15.3).
To completely separate the chamber from the power supply, you must disconnect the power
plug. Install the chamber in a way that the power plug is easily accessible and can be easily
pulled in case of danger.
4.2 Connection to a suction plant (optional)
When directly connecting a suction plant the spatial temperature exactitude, the heating-up and the re-
covering times and the maximum temperature will be negatively influenced. So no suction plant should be
directly connected to the exhaust duct.
Active suction from the chamber must only be effected together with extraneous air. Perforate
the connecting piece to the suction device or place an exhaust funnel at some distance to the
exhaust duct.
CAUTION
The exhaust duct will become hot during operation.
Danger of burning.
Do NOT touch the exhaust duct during operation.
M (E2) 04/2019 page 16/71
5. Start up
After connecting the electrical supply (chap. 4.1), turn on the chamber via the main power switch (2).
Warming chambers may release odors in the first few days after commissioning. This is not a quality de-
fect. To reduce odors quickly we recommend heating up the chamber to its nominal temperature for one
day and in a well-ventilated location.

5.2 Operating modes
The program controller MB1 operates in 3 modes:
Idle Mode
The controller is not functional, i.e., there is no heating. The fan turns
at a 50% rate.
Manual Mode
(Fixed value operation) (HAND)
The controller operates as a fixed-point control, i.e., a temperature
set-point can be defined, which is then maintained (chap. 8).
Program Mode (AUTO)
An entered temperature program is run (chap. 9).
The program controller MB1 allows programming temperature cycles.
The controller offers 25 program memory positions with 100 program sections each. The total number of
program sections of all programs is limited to 500.
M (E2) 04/2019 page 17/71
Programming can be done directly through the keypad of the controller or graphically through the APT-
COM™ 4 Multi Management Software (option, chap. 11.1) specially developed by BINDER.
5.3 Performance after power failures
After the power returns, the chamber continues to function in the original operating mode it was in previ-
ously before an actual power failure had occurred. In Manual Mode (HAND), the controller regulates the
temperature to the last entered set-points, while in Program Mode (AUTO) it regulates the temperature to
its set-point that was reached during the program operation. The power failure is noted in the event list
(chap. 6.2) however, no error message is displayed indicating that a power failure has taken place.
5.4 Turning on the chamber
Set the main power switch (2) to position I. The pilot lamp shows the chamber is ready for operation.
Observe a delay time of approx. 30s between turning Off and On again. Otherwise an initiali-
zation problem may occur (display showing e.g. “–1999”).
Note that the chamber is in stand-by mode when the main power switch is in position I and the controller
display is dark. Turn on the chamber by pressing any button. When turned on, the chamber functions in
the operating mode entered before turning off. In Manual Mode (HAND), the controller regulates the tem-
perature to the last entered set-point, and in Program Mode (AUTO) it regulates the temperature to the
set-points reached during previous program operation.

Heating up time
Average heating up time approx. 5 °C/min (the air flap closed and the fan set to maximum speed).
Cooling down time
Average cooling down time approx. 0.2 °C/min to 1.5 °C/min (the air flap open and the fan set to maxi-
mum speed).
If the chamber is fully loaded, the specified heating up and cooling down times may vary ac-
cording to the load.

Set the set-point of temperature safety device class 2 or class 3.1 (option) by about 5 °C to 10
°C above the controller temperature set-point.
If operation line 1 has been set to ON, i.e., the air flap is open,
the notification “AIR FLAP OPEN” is displayed on the controller
MB1 display next to a flashing blue information symbol.
In Manual Mode, no program can be started. A set-point can be entered for temperature. The actual val-
ue equilibrates to this set-point.
When pushing the EXIT button in Manual Mode, the controller changes to Idle Mode. The set-points en-
tered in Manual Mode remain saved.
When incidentally pressing the EXIT or AUTOMATIC button during Manual Mode operation,
the controller will change to Idle Mode and thus will not adjust any longer to the program set-
points.
We recommend keyboard locking (available via BINDER INDIVIDUAL customized solutions,
see chap. 11.10.) during operation.
8.2 Performance after power failure in Manual Mode
In Manual Mode (HAND), all functions return exactly to the same status the chamber had before power
failure. The set-point is immediately resumed, the switching states of the operation lines are conserved.
No error message indicating that a power failure has taken place is displayed. However, the power failure
will appear in the event list.
9. Program operation
The 1-channel program controller MB1 permits programming temperature cycles. It offers 25 program
memory positions with 100 program sections each. The total cumulative number of program sections is
limited to 500. It is not possible to link several programs.
For each program section a temperature set-point, the fan speed (0% up to 100%), and the switching-
state of up to 8 operation lines can be entered. Operating line 1 is used to control the air flap position.
The other operation lines are non-functional.
Programming is possible directly by the keypad of the controller or graphically by the APT-COM™ 4 Multi
Management Software (option, chap. 11.1) specially developed by BINDER.

9.2 Selecting between set-point ramp and set-point step
Temperature set-points always refer to the start of a program section, i.e., at the beginning of each pro-
gram section the entered temperature set-point is targeted. During program section operation, the tem-
perature gradually passes to the set-point entered for the next program section.
By appropriate planning of the program section timing, you can enter all kinds of temperature transitions.
• Gradual temperature changes “set-point ramp”
The set-point changes its value gradually while proceeding from one program section to the next one
during the programmed section length. The actual temperature value (X) follows the continually mov-
ing set-point (W) at any time.
• Program sections with constant temperature
The initial values of two subsequent program sections are identical; so the temperature remains con-
stant during the whole time of the first program section.
• Sudden temperature changes “set-point step”
Steps are temperature changes (ramps) that occur during a very short interval. A section with a differ-
ent set-point follows two program sections with an identical set-point. If the duration of this transitional
program section is very short (minimum entry 1 sec), the temperature change will proceed rapidly
within the minimum amount of time.

The following chapter offers examples of programming a set-point ramp and a set-point step.
9.3 Program entry as set-point ramp or as set-point step
In order to avoid incorrect programming, we recommend plotting the temperature profile (chart template
in chap. 9.9) and entering the values into a table (templates in chap. 9.10).
The controller provides 8 operation lines that can be activated or de-activated for each program section.
Operating contact 1 is used to control the air flap position (ON = Air flap open, OFF = Air flap closed). The
other operation lines are non-functional.
The chamber does not provide active refrigeration, but you can program defined cooling down ramps
within the range of possible cooling-down times , e.g. in order to avoid tension in the material.

For rapid transition phases, do NOT program any tolerance limits in order to allow maximum
heating speed.

9.4 Information on programming different temperature transitions
• For the end value of the desired cycle, add an additional section (in the examples section 05 for set-
point ramp and section 08 for set-point step) with a section time of at least one second. Otherwise, the
program will stop one section too early because the program line is incomplete.
• If the tolerance minimum is set to e.g. -5 and the tolerance maximum to e.g. +5, the program is inter-
rupted when the actual value deviates by 5 °C or more from the set-point value. During this program
interruption, the display reads at the right below AUTO HAND instead of AUTO (program operation).
You can enter different values for tolerance maximum and minimum for each section. When the tem-
perature is situated within the entered tolerance limits, the program is automatically continued. The in-
dication AUTOHAND disappears.
Programming of tolerances can extend program duration.
Therefore, the duration of the program might be extended due to the programming of tolerances.
The number -1999 for the tolerance minimum means “-∞“ and the number 9999 for the tolerance max-
imum means “+ ∞“. Entry of these numbers will never lead to program interruption.
During the rapid transition phase, do NOT program any tolerance limits in order to allow the maximum
heating speed.
• The initial setting ∗∗∗∗.∗ of the fan speed corresponds to the maximal speed of 100 %.
Do reduce the fan speed rate ONLY if it is absolutely necessary for the essay. Usually,
the spatial exactitude of the temperature decreases with lesser ventilation. Technical data
refers to a 100 % fan speed rate.
• Programming is stored even in case of power failure or after turning off the chamber.
• The controller memory can store a maximum of 25 programs. Each program cannot exceed 100 sec-
tions. It is not possible to link programs. The total number of program sections of all programs is lim-
ited to a maximum of 500.
If you incidentally press the EXIT or AUTOMATIC button during program operation, the control-
ler will change to Idle Mode and thus will not adjust any more to the program set-points.
We recommend keyboard locking (available via BINDER INDIVIDUAL customized solutions,
see chap. 11.10.) during operation.
General note:
The controller MB1 displays more menu entries than those described in this manual. These are password
protected because they are relevant for service purposes only and the user must not modify them. Only
service authorized by BINDER can access these entries.

10. Temperature safety devices
10.1 Temperature safety device class 2 (DIN 12880)
The temperature safety device class 2 acc. to DIN 12880:2007 protects the chamber, its environment and
the charging material from exceeding the maximum permissible temperature.
Please observe the DGUV guidelines 213-850 on safe working in laboratories (formerly BGI/GUV-I 850-
0, BGR/GUV-R 120 or ZH 1/119, issued by the employers’ liability insurance association) (for Germany).
In the event of a fault in the temperature controller, the safety device (3) permanently turns off the
chamber. This status is reported visually by the indicator lamp (3a).
Check the operation of the safety device (3) by moving it slowly counter-clockwise until the chamber turns
off. The safety device cut-off is reported visually by the indicator lamp (3a).
Then release again the safety device by pressing the reset button (3b), and turn on the chamber as de-
scribed.
Figure 8: Temperature safety device class 2
Function:
The safety device class 2 is functionally and electrically independent of the temperature control device
and turns off the chamber permanently.
If you turn the control knob (3) to its end-stop (position 10), the safety device protects the appliance. If
you set it to a temperature a little above the controller’s set-point temperature, it protects the charging
material.
If the safety device has turned off the chamber, identifiable by the red alarm lamp (3a) lighting up, pro-
ceed as follows:
• Disconnect the chamber from the power supply.
• Have an expert examine and rectify the cause of the fault.
• Release the safety device by pressing the reset button (3b).
• Restart the chamber as described in chap. 5.
Setting:
To check the response temperature of the safety device, turn on the chamber and set the desired set-
point at the temperature controller.
The sections of the scale from 1 to 10 corresponds to the temperature range from 30 °C / 86 °F up to 320
°C / 608 °F and serves as a setting aid.
• Turn the control knob (3) of the safety device using a coin to its end-stop (position 10) (chamber pro-
tection).
• When the set-point is reached, turn back the control knob (3) until its trip point (turn it counter-
clockwise)
• The trip point is identifiable by the red alarm lamp (3a) lighting up; the reset button (3b) pops out.
• The optimum setting of the safety device is obtained by turning the control knob clockwise by approx.
one graduation mark on the scale.
• Push the reset button (3b) in again.
(3)
(3a)
(3b)
M (E2) 04/2019 page 38/71
The chamber is only active with the reset button (3b) pushed in.
When the safety device class 2 responds, the red alarm lamp (3a) illuminates, the reset button (3b) pops
out, and the chamber turns off permanently.
Check the setting regularly and adjust it following any changes of the set-point.
Function check:
Check the temperature safety device class 2 at appropriate intervals for its functionality. It is recommend-
ed that the authorized operating personnel should perform such a check, e.g., before starting a longer
work procedure.
10.2 Temperature safety device class 3.1 (DIN 12880) (available via BINDER
INDIVIDUAL customized solutions)
The temperature safety device class 3.1 acc. to DIN 12880:2007 protects the chamber, its environment
and the charging material from exceeding the maximum permissible temperature. In the event of a fault, it
limits the temperature inside the chamber to the value set on the safety device.
Please observe the DGUV guidelines 213-850 on safe working in laboratories (formerly BGI/GUV-I 850-
0, BGR/GUV-R 120 or ZH 1/119, issued by the employers’ liability insurance association) (for Germany).
Figure 9: Temperature safety device class 3.1
Function:
The temperature safety device is functionally and electrically independent of the temperature control sys-
tem and if an error occurs it performs a regulatory function.
If you turn the control knob (3) to its end-stop (position 10), the safety device class 3.1 protects the
chamber. If you set it to a temperature a little above the controller’s set-point temperature, it protects the
charging material. If the safety device class 3.1 has taken over control, identifiable by the red alarm lamp
(3a) lighting up, proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the chamber from the power supply.
• Have an expert examine and rectify the cause of the fault.
• Restart the chamber as described in chap. 5.
Setting:
To check the response temperature of the safety device class 3.1, turn on the chamber and set the de-
sired set-point at the temperature controller.
The sections of the scale from 1 to 10 correspond to the temperature range from 63 °C / 145.4 °F up to
350 °C / 662 °F and serve as a setting aid.
(3)
(3a)
M (E2) 04/2019 page 39/71
• Turn the control knob (3) of the safety device using a coin to its end-stop
(position 10) (chamber protection).
• When the set point is reached, turn back the control knob (3
) until its trip
point (turn it counter-clockwise).
• The trip point is identifiable by the red alarm lamp (3a).
• The optimum setting of
the safety device is obtained by turning the control
knob clockwise by approx. one scale division, which leads to extin
guish the
red alarm lamp (3a).
Figure 10: Setting safety device class 3.1
Check the setting regularly and adjust it following any changes of the set-point.
Function check:
Check the temperature safety device class 3.1 at appropriate intervals for its functionality. It is recom-
mended that the authorized operating personnel should perform such a check, e.g., before starting a
longer work procedure.

11.8 Mostly gas-tight version (option for M 53 and M 115)
With this option the chamber is additionally sealed, so the loss when introducing gases is decreased. The
chamber is not completely gas-tight, so it is impossible to establish overpressure. The sealing diminishes
the release of vapors via the housing that may be set free from the charging material when heated. Carry-
ing-off via the regular evacuation duct, e.g. into a waste air installation, is likely to further reduce emis-
sions.
The chamber is not completely gas-tight. Gases from inside the chamber can escape into the
surrounding atmosphere.
Observe the occupational exposure limit OEL for the released substance set by the national
authorities (formerly maximum permitted workplace concentration). Respect the relevant
regulations.
Any harmful gas that might escape has to be led out via good room ventilation or a suitable
exhaust system. Place the chamber, if necessary, below a gas vent.
The air flap does not close the exhaust duct completely. The delivered plug serves to avoid emerging of
vapors or loss of introduced inert gas, if any, via the exhaust duct. Due to special demands of heat re-
sistance, use the delivered plug only.
M (E2) 04/2019 page 42/71
CAUTION
Use of inappropriate plug.
Danger of inflammation.
Use only the supplied plug to close the exhaust duct.
For drying purpose, please remove the plug in order to permit dissipation of the generated vapor, which
would lead to condensation in the inner chamber.
11.9 Inert gas connection with mostly gas-tight version (option for M 53 and M
115)
With this option the chamber is additionally sealed, so the loss when introducing inert gases is de-
creased. For details on the mostly gas-tight version please refer to chap. 11.8).
The chamber is equipped with two ports for inert gas (nitrogen or noble gases).
The ports are located on the top panel in the middle and on the right side at the bottom right. Each
of these ports can be used as inlet or outlet, depending on the nature of the inert gas:
• lighter gas (nitrogen, helium): lower port as inlet
• heavy gas (e.g. argon): upper port as inlet
Connection
Observe the legal requirements and relevant standards and regulations for the safe handling of gas cyl-
inders and inert gases.
General information for safe handling of gas cylinders:
• Store and use gas cylinders only in well ventilated areas.
• Open the gas cylinder valve slowly to avoid pressure surges
• Secure gas cylinders during storage and use against falling (chaining).
• Transport gas cylinders with a cylinder cart, do not carry, roll, or throw them
•
Always close the valve even with apparently empty cylinders; screw on the cap when not in
use. Return gas cylinders with the valve closed
• Do not open gas cylinders by force. Mark them when damaged
• Observe relevant regulations for dealing with gas cylinders.
Connect a flexible gas tube to the gas hose connection adapter (diameter 10mm), which is used for gas
inlet, and secure it with hose clamps (hose and hose clamps are not enclosed). There is a constant gas
flow after establishing the connection.
After connecting the gas cylinder, check all gas connections for leaks (e.g. with leak spray or
diluted soap solution).
Use a pressure reducer and make sure to avoid any excessive outlet pressure when connecting the gas
hose to the chamber.
The chamber is not completely gas-tight. Inert gases from inside the chamber can escape into
the surrounding atmosphere.
M (E2) 04/2019 page 43/71
Inert gases in high concentrations is hazardous to health. They are colorless and almost odorless and
therefore practically imperceptible. Inhalation of inert gases can cause drowsiness up to respiratory ar-
rest. When the O
2
content of the air decreases below 18%, there is risk of death from lack of oxygen. Any
gas that might escape has to be led out via good room ventilation or a suitable exhaust system.
WARNING
High concentration of inert gas.
Risk of death by suffocation.
Do NOT set up chambers in non-ventilated recesses.
Ensure technical ventilation measures.
Respect the relevant regulations for handling these gases.
Inert gases, which are heavier than air, may accumulate in low-lying areas of the installation
site.
The mostly gas-tight version reduces the loss of gas.
Setting (example values):
If you want to flush the chamber with an air exchange rate of 1 per hour, set the flow rate on the
pressure reducer according to the interior volume.
M 53 with 53 l internal volume: The flow rate corresponding to 53 l / h is 0.9 l / min.
M 115 with 115 l internal volume: The flow rate corresponding to 115 l / h is 1.9 l / min.
The air flap does not close the exhaust duct completely. The delivered plug serves to avoid loss of intro-
duced inert gas via the exhaust duct. Due to special demands of heat resistance, use the delivered plug
only.
CAUTION
Use of inappropriate plug.
Danger of inflammation.
Use only the supplied plug to close the exhaust duct.
For drying purpose, please remove the plug in order to permit dissipation of the generated vapor, which
would lead to condensation in the inner chamber.
