air flap, door window (option), and the door gaskets will become hot during opera-

tion.

Danger of burning.

∅ Do NOT touch the glass doors, inner surfaces, exhaust air flap, door window, access

ports, door gaskets, or the charging material during operation.

∅ FD-S / FD-S-UL: Do not place the power cable over the door gap when the chamber is

hot after operation.

1.6 Intended use

The chambers are suitable for exact tempering of harmless materials and for drying and heat treatment of

solid or pulverized charging material, as well as bulk material, using the supply of heat. They can be used

to dry e.g. glassware, and for warm storage of liquids in containers.

Because of their precise temperature accuracy the incubators BD-S / BD-S-UL are especially useful for

incubation of cultures at a standard temperature of 37 °C / 98.6 °F.

A solvent content must not be explosive or flammable. A mixture of any component of the charging mate-

rial with air must NOT be explosive. The operating temperature must lie below the flash point or below the

sublimation point of the charging material. Any component of the charging material must NOT be able to

release toxic gases.

Other applications are not approved.

The chambers are not classified as medical devices as defined by the Medical Device Directive

93/42/EEC.

Do NOT use the chamber for drying processes when large quantities of vapor would form and result in

condensation.

Due to the special demands of the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC, these ovens are not

qualified for sterilization of medical devices as defined by the directive.

Observing the instructions in this operating manual and conducting regular maintenance work

(chap. 13) is part of the intended use.

WARNING: If customer should use a BINDER chamber running in non-supervised continu-

ous operation, we strongly recommend in case of inclusion of irrecoverable specimen or

samples to split such specimen or samples and store them in at least two chambers, if this is

feasible.

The charging material shall not contain any corrosive ingredients that may damage the ma-

chine components. Such ingredients include in particular acids and halides. Any corrosive

damage caused by such ingredients is excluded from liability by BINDER GmbH.

BD-S / BD-S-UL, ED-S / ED-S-UL, FD-S / FD-S-UL (E1) 10/2020 page 10/59

The chambers do not dispose of any measures of explosion protection.

DANGER

Explosion or implosion hazard.

Danger of poisoning.

Danger of death.

∅ Do NOT introduce any substance combustible or explosive at working temperature into

the chamber, in particular no energy sources such as batteries or lithium-ion batteries.

∅ NO explosive dust or air-solvent mixture in the inner chamber.

∅ Do NOT introduce any substance which could lead to release of toxic gases.

In case of foreseeable use of the device there is no risk for the user through the integration of the cham-

ber into systems or by special environmental or operating conditions in the sense of EN 61010-1:2010.

For this, the intended use of the chamber and all its connections must be observed.

2. Chamber description

BINDER incubators BD-S / BD-S-UL and drying and heating ovens ED-S / ED-S-UL and FD-S / FD-S-UL

are equipped with an electronic PID-controller with digital display.

The incubators BD-S / BD-S-UL indicate the temperature with an accuracy of a tenth of a

degree.

The drying and heating ovens ED-S / ED-S-UL and FD-S / FD-S-UL indicate the temperature

with an accuracy of one degree.

All chambers are heated electrically. Incubators BD-S / BD-S-UL and drying and heating ovens ED-S /

ED-S-UL are ventilated naturally. Drying and heating ovens FD-S / FD-S-UL are ventilated by fan-

assisted, forced-air circulation.

The concept of air conduction guarantees high level of spatial and time-based temperature precision,

thanks to the direct and distributed air circulation into the interior. With FD-S / FD-S-UL, the fan supports

exact attainment and maintenance of the desired temperature accuracy.

The chambers are regularly equipped with an overtemperature safety device class 1 acc. to

DIN12880:2007 and with an overtemperature safety controller (overtemperature temperature safety de-

vice class 2 (ED-S / ED-S-UL, FD-S / FD-S-UL) or class 3.1(BD-S / BD-S-UL) acc. to DIN12880:2007),

see chap. 8.

The inner chamber and the inside of the doors are made of stainless steel V2A (German material no.

1.4016, US equivalent AISI 430). Drying and heating ovens ED-S / ED-S-UL and FD-S / FD-S-UL: When

operating the chambers at temperatures above 150 °C / 302 °F, the impact of the oxygen in the air may

cause discoloration 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.

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.

Temperature ranges see technical data (chap. 16.4).

9. Overtemperature protection

9.1 Overtemperature protective device (class 1)

The chambers are equipped with an internal temperature safety device, class 1 acc. to DIN 12880:2007.

It serves to protect the unit and prevents dangerous conditions caused by major defects.

If the cut-off temperature is reached, the over temperature protective device permanently turns off the

unit. The user cannot restart the device again. The protective cut-off device is located internally. Only a

service specialist can replace it. Therefore, please contact an authorized service provider or BINDER

service.

Cut-off temperature values:

BD-S / BD-S-UL: 90 °C / 194 °F

ED-S / ED-S-UL, FD-S / FD-S-UL: 318 °C / 604.4 °F

BD-S / BD-S-UL, ED-S / ED-S-UL, FD-S / FD-S-UL (E1) 10/2020 page 20/59

9.2 Safety controller

The chambers are regularly equipped with an adjustable electronic safety controller. It serves to protect

the chamber, its environment and the contents against 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).

Depending on the chamber type the safety controller acts as an over temperature safety device class 2

(“temperature limiter”) or class 3.1 (“temperature protection”) acc. to DIN 12880:2007.

Check the setting regularly and adjust it following any changes of the set-point.

• BD-S / BD-S-UL: Safety controller class 3.1

The safety controller class 3.1 limits the temperature inside the chamber to the entered safety control-

ler set-point. In the event of a fault (if this maximum temperature is exceeded), it takes over the control

to this value. This status is reported visually by an alarm message.

The safety controller keeps control of the chamber until the chamber temperature cools down below

the safety controller set-point value.

• ED-S / ED-S-UL, FD-S / FD-S-UL: Safety controller class 2

The safety controller class 2 limits the temperature inside the chamber to the entered safety controller

set-point. In the event of a fault (if this maximum temperature is exceeded) the safety controller com-

pletely turns off the heating until manual reset. This status is reported visually by an alarm message.

Function check:

Check the safety controller at appropriate intervals for its functionality. It is recommended that the author-

ized operating personnel should perform such a check, e.g., before starting a longer work procedure.

9.2.1 Setting the safety controller

A limit temperature is entered as the safety controller set-point , i.e. the absolute maximum permitted

temperature value.

BD-S / BD-S-UL: Setting with an accuracy of a tenth of a degree. 0 °C / 31 °F up to 80 °C / 176 °F

ED-S / ED-S-UL, FD-S / FD-S-UL: Setting with an accuracy one degree. 0 °C / 31 °F up to 260 °C /

9.2.2 Alarm message and proceeding in case of an alarm

The status LED “Heating active” is lit.

• BD-S / BD-S-UL: Safety controller class 3.1

The safety controller keeps control of the chamber until the chamber temperature cools down below

the entered safety controller value. First the heating turns off. As soon as the inner chamber tempera-

ture has cooled down below the safety controller set-point, the heating is released and temperature

control is resumed by the controller.

If the safety controller class 3.1 has repeatedly taken over control, we recommend proceeding as fol-

lows:

• Disconnect the chamber from the power supply.

• Have an expert examine and rectify the cause of the fault.

• Restart the chamber

• ED-S / ED-S-UL, FD-S / FD-S-UL: Safety controller class 2

The heating turns off.

As soon as the inner chamber temperature has cooled down below the safety controller value, you

can reset the alarm message on the controller. Press the confirmation button. The heating is then

released and temperature control is resumed by the controller. The status LED “Heating active” is off.

If the safety controller class 2 has turned off the heating, we recommend proceeding as follows:

• Disconnect the chamber from the power supply.

• Have an expert examine and rectify the cause of the fault.

• Restart the chamber

• Reset the alarm message with the confirmation button

10. Timer function “Delayed Off”

The chambers offer the timer function “Delayed Off”.

This function serves to set a delay time until the control is turned off.

The selected timer run-time immediately starts running down.

11. Ramp function

You can program temperature ramps in order to extend heating up times. This may be necessary in some

cases to prevent temperature stress in the material during the heating up phase. Temperature ramps

should only be used if required. Using them may result in considerably slowing down the heating up

times. When the ramp function is turned off, the chamber will heat up with its maximum heating capacity.

The desired temperature rise is entered as a set-point gradient in degrees per hour. This gradient limits

the maximum temperature increase to the entered value. Due to the heat and evaporation energy as-

sumed by the drying material, smaller temperature gradients may also result.

You can select a gradient from “0.001” up to “9999” degrees per hour. The chamber will try to heat up

according to the entered gradient. A heating-up rate of 24 °C per hour for the incubators BD-S / BD-S-UL

and of 240 °C per hour for the heating and drying ovens ED-S / ED-S-UL and FD-S / FD-S-UL can be

regarded as a realistic maximum.

The ramp proceeds from the actual value (equilibrated start set-point) towards the entered target set-

point. During ramp operation the effective ramp set-point (SPr) continually rises in accordance to the en-

tered gradient from the start set-point to the target set-point. The actual value follows this continually

changing effective ramp set-point. As soon as the entered target set-point (ramp target temperature) is

reached, this value is maintained constant.

Figure 8: Set-point types during ramp operation

11.1 Setting the ramp

1. Enter the start set-point of the ramp (chap. 7) and let the temperature equilibrate to this value.

2. Set the desired gradient in the „rAtE“ menu

Setting „0.001“ up to „9999“: Maximum temperature rise in °C per hour or °F per hour.

Setting „Off“: deactivated ramp function. The chamber will heat up with its maximum heating capacity.

3. Then enter a new set-point as the ramp’s target set-point (chap. 7).

As soon as the entries have been adopted, the ramp function is activated. The chamber heats up with the

entered gradient, as long as the entered set-point (SP) exceeds the actual temperature value.

16. Technical description

16.1 Factory calibration and adjustment

This chamber was calibrated and adjusted in the factory. Calibration and adjustment were performed

using standardized test instructions, according to the QM DIN EN ISO 9001 system applied by BINDER

(certified since December 1996 by TÜV CERT). All test equipment used is subject to the administration of

measurement and test equipment that is also constituent part of the BINDER QM DIN EN ISO 9001 sys-

tems. They are controlled and calibrated to a DKD-Standard at regular intervals.

16.2 Definition of usable volume

The usable volume illustrated below is calculated as follows:

A, B, C = Internal dimensions (W, H, D)

a, b, c = Wall clearances

a = 0.1 x A

b = 0.1x B

c = 0.1 x C

USE

= (A - 2a) x (B - 2b) x (C - 2c)

Figure 9: Determination of the useable volume

The technical data refers to the defined usable volume.

Do NOT place samples outside this usable volume.

Do NOT load this volume by more than half to enable sufficient airflow inside the chamber.

Do NOT divide the usable volume into separate parts with large area samples.

Do NOT place samples too close to each other in order to permit circulation between them

and thus obtain a homogenous distribution of temperature.

16.3 Over current protection

The chambers are protected by one (UL chambers) or two miniature fuses against over current, accessi-

ble from the outside. The miniature fuses are located at the rear of the chamber above the power cable

connection. Each fuse holder is equipped with a fuse clip 5mm x 20 mm (cUL-Version 6,3x32 mm). A

fuse may be replaced only with a substitute of the same ratings. Refer to the technical data of the respec-

tive device type.
