How to Add Water to the Water Jacket Incubator?

When people first start using water jacket incubators, they often feel that adding water is very difficult. It is easy to add water to the incubator, but there is no suitable container to help add water.

We can add water to the water jacket incubator as follows:

Step 3:

Specific water-adding steps:

1. Connect to the power supply, and switch on the water jacket incubator. Please connect all the parts and add tap water..

Connect all the pipes and a helpful water tank, as our video shows.
There is no need to add any special just tap water. Some people think adding purified water can prolong the water jacket incubator's service time. It is a waste of money. The inner water is just a heating media, and after using some time, we will have to add water again.

Question about this step: I do not have the water tank as your video show. What can I do? Answer: We provide this water tank to facilitate users to add water. Suppose there is no such water tank. You can find a similar one, flip it and add water.
There is only one thing we should pay attention to when using tap water, if the chlorine content of tap water in some areas is relatively high (actually, this rarely happens), we had better leave it alone for a period of time to let the chlorine dissipate. Most tanks are made of stainless steel 304, so they will not be oxidized for general tap water. Only water with high chlorine will cause long-term damage to our inner steel tank.

2. Wait, we can see bubbles coming out. On the control panel, the SW light is not on. It indicates the inner water is not enough. If the water is not enough, open the lid and add more water during this time.

Question about this step: How long do I have to wait before filling the water?
Answer: It is difficult to say. The amount of water added is related to the capacity of the water jacket incubator. The larger the capacity is, the more water should be added. You can pay attention to the 'SW' light on the control panel. If it is not on, you need to add more water.

The water filling is completed when the indicator light 'SW' is on. At the same time, we can see that no bubbles are emerging from the water tank.
After a period of use, the internal water will be lost. When we turn on the machine and use the water jacket incubator, we will find that the indicator light 'SW' is dark. At this time, we need to repeat the above steps to fill up the water.

Question about this step: If the water jacket incubator is not used for a long time, shall I empty the internal water?
Answer: If the incubator is not used for only one or two months, there is no need to empty the water. If the incubator has a good working environment: good ventilation and is in the shade, it will be OK to stay longer. If the working environment is relatively poor, we are afraid that bacteria will breed inside due to pollution, so we can choose to empty the internal water.
