10. Bedew protection facility (operation line 1)
The bedew protection condensates the chamber humidity at the coldest point in order to avoid the sam-
ples becoming wet from condensation. Bedew protection is performed by the evaporator and can be pro-
grammed On/Off via operation line 1 in Manual Mode (HAND) and in Program Mode (AUTO). The other
operation lines are non-functional.
Use the bedew protection only if absolutely necessary to prevent condensation on the charging
material.
When the bedew protection is enabled (operation line 1 = On) the refrigeration machine keeps operating
within warming-up phases (On = refrigeration machine operating, Off = refrigeration machine off).
•
If possible, use the bedew protection only during warm-up phases. If necessary it can also be
activated during hold phases.
• Do NOT use the bedew protection above a temperature set-point of +20 °C maximum.
To obtain optimal warming results without condensation on the samples, program a heating gradient of
about 0.5 °C/min.

Operation line 1 = bedew protection
In the program table the state of operation
line 1 for bedew protection is represented
in the column “Sk”:
On = 0000000
1
Off = 0000000 0
Example:
Operation line 1 is activated in the first
program section and remains active up to
+20 °C.
Then the refrigeration machine turns off
automatically.
