ξThe UV timer can be set from 0 to 30 min. The default setting is for 5 min. When the UV timer is set to zero, the UV lamp will not light.

ξIf the outer door is opened while the UV lamp is lit, the lamp will turn OFF. Then, when the door is closed, the lamp will light for the preset period of time.

ξIf the UV lamp ON time is set for longer than 10 minutes or if only the outer door is repeated opened and closed, condensation may occur in the chamber and may affect temperature distribution. It will also shorten the service life of the UV lamp.

ξWhen replacing the UV lamp, consult with a Sanyo representative or agent.

Note: To compensate for the drop in UV ray output along with increased accumulated ON time of UV lamp, the Incubator automatically extends the UV lamp ON time according to the accumulated ON time. The automatically extended time is displayed as a percentage under UV Timer Ext. in the UV Setting Screen.

Lighting the UV lamp for 24 hours

If the chamber has been contaminated by dirt or by spilling the medium, use the following procedure to decontaminate the chamber by lighting the UV lamp for 24 hours.

1.Remove all attachments from the chamber, including the trays, tray supports, side supports, fan cover, duct, fan, humidifying pan, and humidifying pan cover. Clean all the attachments in an autoclave or with disinfectant alcohol.

2.Clean and wipe off inside the chamber with disinfectant alcohol.

3.Set the CO2 density to 0% and set the UV 24h Mode to 1 on the UV Setting Display.

4. Press the MENU Key to display the menu, select OK, and press the ENTER Key. The parameter will be saved.

This procedure must be preformed only with the outer door closed and the UV lamp turned OFF.

The UV lamp will light continuously for 24 hours after this parameter is set. The setting is canceled if the outer door is opened. Perform the above procedure to set the 24-hours lighting mode again if you open the door.

Install the attachments after completion of the 24-hour lighting mode.

Note: Set the upper limit alarm temperature to at least 10oC higher than the chamber set temperature when using the 24-hour lighting mode of UV lamp. The 24-hour lighting mode may cause an automatic chamber temperature alarm because the temperature of the chamber will increase.
