Although all precautions are taken to prevent contamination, this equipment was once used in a Laboratory research setting. As such it was unused in an environment, or in a way, that handled potentially biological or chemical hazards.

This product must not be used for domestic purposes and must not be used for research purpose within a domestic location.

Refrigerators will be transported in a variety of methods, including palletised couriers or direct transport "point of use". It is possible the internal refrigerant may have shifted during transport.
Allowing the unit to remain upright for at least 24 hours lets the refrigerant settle properly, preventing potential damage to the cooling system. Please ensure you allow sufficient settling time after receiving your delivery. Please also ensure you place the unit in its desired place of use before powering on for the first time, this is to prevent further movement post-delivery.

We suggest the below time periods are reached before powering on:

Fridges: 8hrs
Pharmaceutical Fridges: 8hrs
Freezers (≤ -20°C): 24hrs
Low Temperature (≤ -40°C): 48hrs
Ultra Low Temperature (≤ -80°C): 48hrs

'Freestanding' or 'Floor Standing' instruments complete at minimum a Visual PAT electrical assessment.

Many freestanding instruments are manufactured with missing panels. Standalone, this would result in a PAT fail. However, as the instrument is designed to be installed as a fixed Non-Portable appliance, it has been determined that these issues do not warrant PAT Fails.

Buyers must accept responsibility to ensure that the appliance is installed correctly and in a way that allows the appliance to be considered Non-Portable.
