SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION
The EN 300, EN 400, EN 400 P, EN 500 and EN 500 P incubators are designed to incubate
samples in biological, medical and pharmaceutical laboratories and in many industrial control
laboratories.
They maintain drying and incubation temperatures between 5°C above the ambient temperature
and 80°C and keep the temperature stable within the given tolerances.
The EN series incubators provide homogeneous temperature distribution by means of the sheet
heaters placed onto three outer surfaces of the useful volume.
The incubator ensures reliable working conditions by the programmable microprocessor controlled
main PCB, which has a very high control accuracy. As an additional security feature, the safety
thermostat is also available.
Microprocessor control system will shut down the temperature sensor and in case of malfunctions
that may occur in the control system, alarm system will be activated and the user is warned visually
and audibly. The study data are recorded in the memory and can be transferred to external USB
memory. At the same time, unauthorized persons have been blocked permission to change
parameters with improved password menu.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
2.1 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS TABLE
**Differently from EN 400 and EN 500, inner sides of EN 400P and EN 500P are made of stainless
steel and their heaters are circular heaters which provide the homogeneity of the temperature by
the circulation fans placed on their centers.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Because of the heavy weight of the incubator, all lifting and transport must be carried out using
proper handling equipment. The incubator must be supported from underneath and never turned
over.
3.2 UNPACKING
Remove the packing cardboard box and the second nylon packing around the incubator. The
below written are provided with the equipment, please check them;
User’s manual
1 piece of warranty certification
2 piece of shelves
4 piece of shelf carriers
1 piece of power cable

3.4 MAINS SUPPLY
A supply fitted with a circuit breaker should be used for protection against indirect
contact in case of an isolation fault.
Make sure that the safety thermostat is adjusted to the temperatures which are higher than the
set temperature.
If it is necessary the ventilation hole is open to discharge the gases and the vapours which
occur during incubation.
Liquids are not heated in sealed containers.
The boiling points of the samples are higher than the set temperature.
Liquids which may expand during heating do not overflow from their containers.
The vapours and gases which are generated during the operation are not harmful to humans
or flammable or explosive.
The set temperature does not destroy the structure of the samples.
Plug the power cable into a grounded socket.
The safety thermostat set value should always be set to a value which higher than the
working temperature.
NOTE : Never use explosive, flammable, acidic or toxic liquids. Read carefully the functions
of the control panel.

4.2 DISPLAY AND CONTROL PANEL
1. Temperature display 6. “Operating the program” lamp 11. Back / Alarm mute button
2. Time display 7. Data transfer lamp
3. Encoder button 8. Alarm led
4. Start / Stop button 9. “End of the program” lamp
5. Heating lamp 10. Usb lamp
01-Temperature Display
This display shows
Sterilization chamber temperature during “stand-by” and during the operation (thermometer
position),
During program preparation, the temperature setting values or the alarm setting values,
Failure codes,
EoF warning when power is interrupted,
The set temperature values and alarm values.
02-Time Display
This display shows the values set for time during program preparation. Also; this display shows
he time values in the control of the settings.
03-Encoder Button
The encoder button has two physical movements. The button turn clockwise and anticlockwise to
increase or decrease the temperature and time values of the program. Also, the button press for
select / confirm.
9
05-Heating Lamp
The led is “on” during heating, it indicates that the heating process is carried out.
10-Usb Lamp
This lamp is on when connected to a USB external memory.
The device has a password protected menu. The password is set to “000” when the device first
starts. Follow the below steps to change the password, update current date / time information and
access the operator's menu where other settings are made.
Lift your hand when you see "oP" on the temperature display and
again press the encoder button. If the device has a menu
protection password, password screen “oPS” will come on the
temperature display.
0
TEMPERATURE C
You enter the set password to turn the encoder button right and
left. ( The password will not be asked if the device is newly
installed.) Confirm the password by pressing the encoder button.
Observe that the parameter numbers on the temperature display
change with each pressing the encoder button. For operator
menu parameter descriptions (see section 4.3.1). You can set the
parameter values by turning the encoder button right or left on
time display.
10
Again press the encoder button and confirm the set value. Press
the back button to return the work screen.
11
See the parameter flashing on the temperature
display.
12
By turning the encoder button set operating time
value (01 minute to 99 hours 54 minutes or
Hold).
NOTE: In order to display the set values during the operation, push the encoder button
once. The values set on the temperature display and the time display of the device
will appear for 5 seconds.
NOTE: During the program, the time starts to count up after the instrument has
reached to the set temperature.
See that the program is over (See “End” and “End of the program lamp”).
Take the samples out. Be careful while handling the samples after the operation as they
can be hot.
Wipe the chamber surface if needed when the chamber is cold enough.
You may leave the incubator at stand-by position or switch it off.
Operating records are transferred to the usb port attached a USB memory.
NOTE : The usb led and the data transfer led on the control panel turn on during transfer of data in
memory and the transfer process starts automatically. Do not remove external memory
from usb port without the data transfer led turn off and the audible alarm finished.
NOTE : Records are transferred to external memory when external memory is connected to the
Usb port. For get the records without program ending, Usb memory, hold down the "Mute"
button for 3 seconds until "Data Transfer Lamp" lights up, then remove from Usb port.
13
ATTENTION !!!
If the unit is in START position in case of the open door, it will keep operating
and the heaters will be over-heated. Besides, the heaters and other components
may be defected. Please be careful.
The samples may be hot after the operation, please be careful while handling
them!!
