2. Replacing the Temperature Controller

The temperature controller may need to be replaced if the actual
temperature displayed on the controller is erratic after calibration,
or if an error message is displayed. Contact SciGene

) for assistance in troubleshooting.

To remove and replace your Watlow EZ-Zone controller:

a.

Disconnect the power cord from the oven.

b.

Locate the EZ-Zone controller on the front control panel. Push

out the tabs on the left and right side and pull it straight out.

c.

Insert a new controller (SciGene cat. #RP600-0146-07) directly

in its place.

d.

Reconnect the power cord.

e.

Follow the Calibration Check procedure in Section III. F. 1.

Re-calibrate if necessary.

3. Rotator Drive System

The rotator drive system is designed to provide trouble-free
operation for many years and does not require routine
maintenance. However, components of the drive system that fail
due to normal wear and tear over long-term usage can be easily
replaced. Contact SciGene’s Technical Service Department
(

) to obtain replacement parts and perform

these repairs.

B. Cleaning

Clean the exterior and interior surfaces using a mild, detergent-based
spray cleaner and wipe with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers
or scouring pads that can scratch the stainless steel.

Under no circumstances should solutions be allowed to enter the
electronics package through the ventilation slots on the top of the unit.
