Internal Validation Thermometer

Aninternal thermometer is provided to allow visual confirmation of the temperature inside the incubator

Variable temperature control

Control the temperature manually from 5 - 45 decrees celsius easily using the temperature dial.

This incubator features a carry case with a handle that allows for easy transportation.

The heat reservoir chassis and temperature control feature enables optimum temperature distribution without the use of fans. The incubator is safe and reliable for long term incubation use.

This incubator is compatible with all of our dipslides.

Before using the incubator

After removing packaging, check that all components (thermometer, mains power pack and 12v cable) are present. To become familiar with the settings etc, it may be best to test the incubator before use (as described below). The inner lid will need pressing down at all of the corners as it is a tight fit.

Plug in the mains power pack via the socket at the rear of the incubator. Switch on the incubator and set the temperature control to the quickest 37°C reference point. There is no on / off switch as the incubator is designed for long term operation. Make sure that the internal clear lid is always on during use. The outer lid can be removed if desired.

The power light (red) and the heating light (yellow) should be illuminated and the incubator should be left for 30 – 40 minutes to stabilise. During operation, the yellow heating light will turn on and off as the incubator requires heat.

You will now need to check that the thermometer is at 37°C. After this, you can set the control to the temperature that you require. Allow a period of stabilisation time between temperature adjustments. The incubator is now ready for use.

Things to remember

The incubator needs to be kept out of direct sunlight.

The incubator can be wiped down with a damp cloth and mild soap.

Avoid leaving the incubator connected via the in car charger for longer than 5-6 hours without running the engine. Always have the outer lid closed when using the incubator in a vehicle.

The MX45 incubator is designed for long term use and does not require maintenance.

Do not modify the cables supplied as this can be dangerous.
