System test
The system test is performed automatically every time the IKA ® C 6000 global standards/isoperibol is
switched on.
During the system test the start screen is shown
again; clicking on the „Show details“ button pro-
vides detailed information.
Safety instructions regarding information on and
activation of the calorimeter are then shown on
the IKA
® Homepage.
The system test includes the following steps:
- Testing the external water circuit with the cir-
culation pump and heater (approx. 30 to 45
seconds).
- Testing the internal water circuit with the con-
denser and water supply, plus the heater once
again (approx. 30 to 45 seconds).
- Testing whether the temperature of the cooling
waters is correct for the selected function of the
IKA
® C 6000 global standards/isoperibol. (ap-
prox. 60 to 180 seconds).
If any one of these steps is not performed suc-
cessfully, the system test stops with an error mes-
sage. After all the components have been che-
cked the system test can be restarted the same as
after a manual cancellation. To do this, press the
„Restart“ button.
With the system test in standby, no measure-
ments can be made. However it is possible to se-
lect some menu options.
