PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE OPERATION
If the unit is to be stored unused in an unsupervised area for a long period, ensure that children do
not have access and that doors cannot be closed completely.
Ask a qualified contractor to carry out disassembly and disposal of the unit. Leaving the unit in
a location that can be accessed by third parties may result in unexpected accidents (e.g. the unit may
be used for unintended purposes).
Do not leave the plastic bags used for packing in a place where they can be reached by small
children as this may result in unexpected accidents such as suffocation.
Use the reagent specified by our company for H2O2 decontamination. Using a different H2O2
solution may result in explosion or damage to the incubator.
When performing H2O2 decontamination, securely close the internal and external doors. Failure to
do so may be harmful to health due to leakage of H2O2 gas.
During H2O2 decontamination, plug the access hole with the silicon cap that is provided. Failure to
do so may be harmful to health due to leakage of H2O2 gas.
Always use the removal power supply cord that is provided. Other power supply cord may cause
electric shock or fire.
Do not use the supplied power cord for other electrical equipment. Such power supply cord may
cause fire or electric shock.
When using CO2 gas for control, make sure that there is adequate ventilation. Using CO2 gas in a
small room without adequate ventilation may cause gas poisoning or oxygen deprivation. In addition,
when opening the incubator doors, do not directly inhale the air in the chamber.
When connecting a gas cylinder to the incubator, confirm the gas type. Confirm that the
connections are secure and that no gas will leak. Be sure to use the specified pressure. Using
an incorrect gas or pressure may result in explosion or fire, or in gas poisoning or oxygen deprivation
due to gas leak.
Install the incubator in a location with adequate ventilation. If adequate ventilation cannot be
provided, then install an alarm system using CO2 and O2 densitometers.
Do not look directly at UV light. UV light is harmful to the eyes.
Never start H2O2 decontamination when “Warning: UV Bulb Life” is displayed in the message display
field. The UV resolve is not sufficient.
Do not use the unlock key to unlock the outer door during H2O2 decontamination or during H2O2
gas resolve by UV. Doing so may cause harm to health from H2O2 gas leakage.
The CO2 incubator must be dismantled and disposed of by qualified personnel only. If the CO2
incubator is left where outsiders enter, it may result unexpected accident (for example, children to
become locked inside).
WARNING
9
This unit must be plugged into a dedicated circuit protected by branch circuit breaker.
Use a dedicated power source as indicated on the rating label attached to the unit. A multiple-tap may
cause fire resulting from abnormal heating.
Never store corrosive substances such as acid or alkali in this unit if the container cannot be
sealed. These may cause corrosion of inner components or electric parts.
Check the setting when starting up of operation after power failure or turning off of power
switch. The stored items may be damaged due to the change of setting.
Be careful not to tip over the unit during movement to prevent damage or injury.
Prepare a safety check sheet (copy the last page) when you request any repair or maintenance for
the safety of service personnel.
Wear rubber gloves when handling the H2O2 reagent. Direct contact with the H2O2 reagent may
result in inflammation of the skin.
H2O2 decontamination can be performed only for the chamber and chamber attachments with standard
specifications, and not for any other objects.
Perform H2O2 decontamination with the chamber attachments arranged as specified by our
company. Arranging them in a different way may result in insufficient decontamination.
After H2O2 decontamination has been completed, wear rubber gloves and use a non-woven cloth to
wipe off the residual H2O2 fluid from the bottom of the chamber, any objects that were
decontaminated, and the bottoms of ducts.
Do not climb on top of the incubator or place any object on it. By doing so you may damage the
incubator or knock it over, which may result in injury.
Wear rubber gloves when performing maintenance on the chamber. Failure to wear gloves may
result in cuts or abrasions from sharp edges or corners.

INSTALLATION
Connecting a CO2 gas cylinder
Before connecting a CO2 gas cylinder, read the precautions for safe operation on pages 5–9.
1. Get a CO2 gas cylinder ready and install an optional gas regulator MCO-010R.
Notes:
• Use a liquefied-CO2 gas cylinder (at least 99.5 % pure). The siphon (dip tube) type cannot be used.
When MCO-010R is not available, install a gas regulator rated at 25 MPa(G) (250 kgf/cm2(G),
3600 psi(G)) for the primary side, and 0.25 MPa(G) (2.5 kgf/cm2(G), 36psi(G)) for the secondary side.
2. Using the gas tube provided, connect the
connecting port A for the CO2 gas pipe and the gas
regulator of the CO2 gas cylinder.
Notes:
By using two tube bands provided, connect the gas tube tightly to prevent it from coming off.
Make sure that the gas tube is not folded.
If the CO2 gas is supplied to multiple CO2 incubators from a single gas cylinder, a CO2 solid will be formed
in the gas regulator. The gas regulator safety valve will operate, and there may be an explosive sound.
3. After connecting the gas tube, make sure that no gas is leaking (ex. by using a gas leak detector spray).
4. Set the CO2 gas on the secondary side to 0.03 MPa(G)–0.1 MPa(G) (0.3 kgf/cm2(G)–1 kgf/cm2(G),
4.4 psi(G)–14.5 psi(G)) for gas injection. Recommended pressure: 0.03 MPa(G) (0.3 kgf/cm2(G), 4.4
psi(G)).
Note: As the pressure increases, the CO2 gas density variation will increase. Excessive pressure may
cause gas supply lines inside the incubator to come loose, which may result in gas poisoning or oxygen
deprivation due to leaking gas. If gas lines come loose, the incubator must be repaired.
5. When there is no CO2 gas left and the CO2 gas empty alarm is activated, replace the empty gas cylinder.
Note: When the optional gas auto-changer MCO-21GC is installed, it switches the empty CO2 gas supply
line to the other automatically. Refer to pages 59–60.
Note: The gas lines connected to the incubator will degrade over time. If any deterioration or abnormalities
are found during inspection, replace the lines immediately.
