5 Troubleshooting
Alarm and error messages as well as basic measures the operator himself may
take to clear them are described in the KBF operating manual.
Please make sure these measures have been tried before looking further for
any other possible error causes.
The troubleshooting diagrams below are built up as follows:
Error pattern
Possible error cause Yes Remedial measure
No
Possible error cause Yes Remedial measure
Faults should be found by replacing components of the unit. Usually that will be the fastest method
of troubleshooting.
The sequence of the columns describing potential causes for errors, and the remedial actions to
clear the described error patterns, is mainly intended to facilitate basic error diagnosis and
clearance.
So it is recommended to work your way from top to bottom of the diagrams.

Anforderungen
(Repair, modification and inspection of electrical appliance, Part 1: General requirements).
Alternatively the electrical safety check can be performed according to similar national standards
which include the specified tests above.
Irrespective of the used standard for the electrical safety check the following limit values must be
observed (Table 2).
Table 2: Limit values of the electrical safety check
Test Limit values
Value for the protective conductor resistance: 0.3

Check of the protective conductor
The open-circuit voltage of the measuring device has to be between 4 V and
(PE)

Calibration and adjustment
14 Calibration and adjustment of temperature

and humidity control
The temperature and humidity control of the unit have to be calibrated and if
necessary adjusted annually and after specific repair works have been done
(see chap. 6 to 12).
At the calibration the temperature and humidity values measured and displayed by the KBF are
compared with values measured and displayed by an external reference measuring instrument.
If the deviations of the temperature or humidity values of the KBF and the reference measuring
instruments exceed defined values, called confidence criteria, the temperature or the humidity
control of the KBF have to be adjusted.
The reference measuring instruments for temperature and humidity must have a valid calibration
certificate which has been approved by a recognized standards or calibration authority or
regulatory body.
The measuring uncertainty of the reference measuring instrument for the temperature should be
below 0.5 K.
The measuring uncertainty of the reference measuring instrument for the humidity should be below

14.1 General execution of the calibration

The reference measuring instruments should have sensors which could be connected to the
display of the instrument via a slim cable that can be placed over the door seal without causing a
leak.
1. Put all racks which are commonly used into the unit.
2. Attach the sensors of the reference measuring instruments to the center of the rack in the
middle of the inner chamber.
3. Place the sensor cable out over the door sealing in such a way that the glass door and outer
door can both be closed and sealed.
4. Close the glass door and the outer door.
5. Switch the KBF on and set the operating parameters (temperature, humidity, fan speed) to that
values at which the unit should be calibrated (chap. 14.2, page 90).
6. Before starting the calibration and adjustment the KBF must be in steady-state condition.
The steady-state condition is that operating state at which the values of temperature and
humidity are not changing more than the specified fluctuations in the useable space for the
respective chamber (see chap. “Technical data” in the “Operation manual”).
If the KBF has been storaged at the permitted ambient operating temperature of +18°C to
+32°C for more than 12 hours, the empirical time to reach the steady-state condition for the
KBF is 1 hour after switching on.

14.2 Calibrating and adjusting points

14.2.1 Calibrating and adjusting point of the temperature control
The adjustment of the temperature control is carried out as a single point adjustment.
Choose the most common operating temperature or a temperature situated in the middle of the
most common used temperature range as calibrating and adjusting point.
14.2.2 Calibrating and adjusting points of the humidity control
The adjustment of the humidity control is carried out as a dual point adjustment.
Choose the values which limit the most common used humidity range as calibrating and adjusting
points.
14.3 Calibrating and adjusting the temperature control

1. Set the set temperature to the desired value (chap. 14.2.1, page 90).
2. Set the set humidity to one of the desired values for the humidity calibration and adjustment
(chap. 14.2.2, page 90).
3. Reset the temperature controller adjustment (chap.14.3.1, page 90 ).
4. Calibrate the temperature controller (chap. 14.3.2, page 92 ).
5. Adjust the temperature controller, if necessary (chap. 14.3.3, page 94).
14.3.1 Resetting the temperature adjustment
Before the unit can be re-adjusted the current adjustment has to be reset and the input value
correction has to be switched off.

15 Description of special unit components

15.1 Cooling system
The cooling system of the KBF has two functions:
Cooling of the inner chamber to set temperatures of minimum -10°C at an ambient
temperature from +18°C to +32°C
The inner chamber is cooled by the cooling plate evaporators (KBF 115/240: -J9, -J10
(see Figure 45); KBF 720: -J10, -J11, -J12, -J13 (see Figure 46)).
The accurate control of the temperature over the possible temperature range from
-10°C to +100°C is carried out by the KBF heating.
Dehumidification of the inner chamber (see also chap. 15.2, page 102)
The inner chamber of the KBF is dehumidified continuously by one of the dehumidification
plate evaporators (KBF 115/240: -J7 or-J8 (see Figure 45); KBF 720: -J8 or -J9 (see Figure
46)) when the switch of the humidity system is switched on (see Operating manual).
Because of the dehumidification ice builds up at the active dehumidification plate evaporator.
Therefore after 3-days permanent operation the active dehumidification plate evaporator is
switched off automatically by closing the related solenoid valve and the up to now passive
dehumidification plate evaporator takes over the dehumidification.
The ice at the switched off evaporator thaws and flows into the steam cylinder.

15.2 Humidity system

15.2.1 Components of the humidity system
The system for controlling the humidity in the KBF consists of following components:
I/O-switch of the humidity system (-6S1)
Humidity control board (-7N1)
2 Solid state relays (-6K1, -6K2)
Steam generation unit (see Figure 47)
Humidity sensor incl. humidity sensor board (KBF 115/240: -2B2; KBF 720: -2B3)
2 Plate evaporators dehumidification (KBF 115/240: -J7 or -J8 (see Figure 45);

F Collecting tray M Fresh water valve (-8Y3)
G Level sensor (-6A1)

15.2.2 Water requirements for operating the steam generation unit
The steam is generated in the steam cylinder (-6A1, C) by means of an alternating current flow
between the electrodes (-6A1, D) through the water of the cylinder.
The steam generation unit operates optimal if the steam cylinder is ½ or ¾ filled. The leveling of
the water in the steam cylinder is controlled automatically by means of the current flow between
the electrodes (see chap. 15.2.3).
Water type: Tap water with conductivity of 200 µS/cm to 500 µS/cm (tolerance range
100 µS/cm to 800 µS/cm).
If the conductivity is between 100 µS/cm to 200 µS/cm large electrodes (order no. 5005-0056)
have to be installed (chap. 11.8, page 77).
If the conductivity is between 500 µS/cm to 800 µS/cm a separating plate
(order no. 6002-0088) has to be installed between the electrodes (chap. 11.9, page 79).
If the conductivity is outside of the range of 100 µS/cm to 800 µS/cm contact the BINDER
Service Hotline.
Total hardness 28.4 mg Ca/l up to 56.8 mg Ca/l
In this range of hardness the conductivity is normally between 200 µS/cm to 500 µS/cm.
In cases of lower hardness the conductivity is normally too low.
In cases of higher hardness the conductivity might be too high. Furthermore the steam
generator calcifies faster and shorter service intervals are necessary.
But in all cases the conductivity has to be measured as described before. It is possible that the
conductivity is in the range of 200 µS/cm to 500 µS/cm and the unit can be operated although
the hardness differs.
Amount of chloride in the water: <100 mg/l
High amounts of chloride and free chlorine, e.g. from water disinfection, causes strong
abrasion of the electrodes.
De-mineralized or distilled water cannot be used with the steam generation unit. The water
must be able to conduct electricity at a certain level (see above), which is not attainable from
de-mineralized or distilled water.
15.2.3 Filling of the steam cylinder with water
1. After switching on the humidity system at the I/O-switch (-6S1) the humidity control board
(-7N1) switches on the drainage pump (-8M1, J) for 45 seconds in order to remove water out
of the steam cylinder (-6A1, C).
2. After pumping off the water the humidity control board connects through the solid state relays
(-6K1, -6K2) and the electrodes for steam generation (-6A1, D) are supplied with voltage.
3. The humidity control board opens the fresh water valve (-8Y3, M) and let water flow into the
steam cylinder until the water reaches the level sensor (-6A1, G) or a current of 3 A flows
between the electrodes.
4. The humidity control board measures and stores the value of the current flowing at the
maximum liquid level.
5. The humidity control board switches on the drainage pump until so much water is pumped
off that the current flow between the electrodes is 85% of the maximum flow.

15.2.4 Standard operation of the steam generation unit
1. The active dehumidification plate evaporator dehumidifies the air of the inner chamber.
2. The humidity sensor (KBF 115/240: -2B2; KBF 720: -2B3) measures the humidity in the inner
chamber and sends the result to the controller (-2N2).
3. If the humidity in the inner chamber falls below the set point the controller ask the humidity
control board (-7N1) for higher humidity.
4. The humidity control board connects through the solid state relays (-6K1, -6K2) and the
electrodes for steam generation (-6A1, D) are supplied with voltage until the humidity in the
inner chamber meets the set point.
5. During the steam generation the current flow between both electrodes is measured by the
humidity control board in short intervals.
6. If the current flow is below 85% of the current having flown at the maximum liquid level the
fresh water valve (-8Y3, M) is opened until the 85% current flow is reached.
If the current exceeds 3 A or the water reaches the level sensor (-6A1, G) the water is pumped
off completely, replaced by new one and the 85% mark is determined new.
7. The opening of the door housing is recorded by the humidity control board (-7N1) via the door
switch (-7S1).
If the housing door is opened periodically, the water of the steam cylinder is changed
every two days
If the housing door is not opened, the water of the steam cylinder is changed every
30 days
8. Because of the dehumidification, ice builds up at the active dehumidification plate evaporator.
Therefore after 3-days permanent operation the active dehumidification plate evaporator is
switched off automatically by closing the related solenoid valve and the up to now passive
dehumidification plate evaporator takes over the dehumidification.
The ice at the switched off evaporator thaws and flows into the steam cylinder.
9. If the steam generation unit leaks so that the water flows into the collecting tray (F) the float
switch (-8S1, I) closes the fresh water valve (-8Y3, M).
15.2.5 Manual control of the humidity control board (-7N1)
Some functions of the humidity control board (-7N1) can be switched on and off manually
(see Table 5).
At delivery all DIP switches of the KBF are set to "Off" which is the standard operating state.
