13 13 1 OVERVIEW The Innova 5000 Digital Tier Shaker will provide you with the reliable, maintenance-free operation that is characteristic of all NBS shakers. The Innova 5000 is among the newest generation of NBS shakers; it incorporates a variety of state-of-the-art components and features to permit the precision operation necessary for your exacting scientific experiments. This manual is intended to provide the user with a complete understanding of how the Innova 5000 operates, its basic components, and basic preventive maintenance and service. This Manual also includes a complete guide to the installation and operation of the Innova Be sure to familiarize yourself with this manual prior to operating your Innova General Description The Innova 5000 is a multiple tier shaker (see Figure 1 on the following page) that utilizes an eccentric counterbalanced drive to provide horizontal plane rotary motion in a 2-inch (51mm) circular orbit. A Proportional/Integral (PI) Microprocessor controller with instantaneous digital feedback controls the speed over a range of RPM. The shaker may be operated either continuously or in a timed mode via a programmable timer for shaking periods of 0.1 hour to 99.9 hours. The Innova 5000 is equipped with audible and visible alarms that are activated when an alarm condition exists, as follows: The end of a timed run Deviation of shaking speed outside the tolerance limits Deviation of temperature outside the tolerance limits A wide variety of platforms can be used with the Innova Dedicated platforms are available for a variety of flask sizes. Universal platforms are also available. (See Section 6 for a list of accessories.) Innova 5000 M

14 14 Figure 1: Front View 1.2 Universal Power Module Voltage and frequency have been set prior to shipment. Innova shakers are available in 100V, 120V, 220V and 240V, and can accommodate both 50 and 60 Hz frequencies. A voltage selector, which is incorporated in the power entry module, and a frequency selector switch are used to select the appropriate voltage and frequency. This universal system adapts to worldwide power requirements. WARNING! Do not plug the shaker into a power source until you check the voltage and frequency settings. Check the voltage selection on the power entry module (see Figure 4) against the Caution label located over the power cord connection and your electric power source. Check the position of the frequency selector switch (see Figure 4). Also see Section 5.2, Changing Voltage & Frequency.

15 Control Panel The control panel (see Figure 2) is located on the front of the instrument. It serves as the operator interface. The keypad has four keys marked START/STOP,, and SELECT. A three-digit LED display provides numeric values as well as some letter codes. There are also four function indicator lights and four status indicator lights on the control panel. A general description of the display, user interface keys and indicators follows. For operation of the control panel, see Section 3, Operation. Figure 2: Control Panel STATUS INDICATORS LED DISPLAY FUNCTION INDICATORS KEYPAD LED Display The Innova control panel has a 3-digit LED display. During normal shaker operation, the display will indicate: Shaker status (ON/OFF) Shaking speed Setpoints Hours remaining (timed run) Innova 5000 M

16 User Interface Keys START/STOP This key is used to start or stop the shaking motion. It will also activate or stop the timer when timed run is desired., These keys are used to adjust the setpoint of a displayed parameter up or down. They also allow the user to enter the Set mode for setpoint changes. SELECT This key is used to change the displayed parameter Status Indicators MAINT Lights after 10,000 hours of use, to indicate need for routine maintenance. Accumulated running time is internally monitored and may be displayed as a guideline. SET Lights to indicate that the shaker is in the Set mode, setpoints are being displayed, and setpoints can be altered. TIME Lights to indicate that the timer is in operation. Innova shakers can be programmed to run for a preset time from 0.1 hour to 99.9 hours. The timer can be disengaged without stopping an ongoing run. MUTE Indicates the status of the audible alarm. When the MUTE indicator is illuminated, the audible alarm device is disabled.

17 Function Indicators RPM Revolutions per minute HRS Time remaining ºC Not applicable * Not applicable 1.4 Platform Assemblies The Innova 5000 can be used with wide variety of NBS 32½-inch x 26¾-inch (82.5 cm x 68 cm) platforms which will accept a variety of clamps for flasks, test tubes, etc. (see listing in Section 6). 1.5 Speed/Monitor Option A Speed/Monitor Option (P/N M ) is available. This option allows the connection of a chart recorder so that shaking speed can be documented. The analog output for shaking speed is 0-3.5V (1V per 100 RPM). The output can also be connected to a data logging computer with an analog data acquisition card. 1.6 Heavy Duty Construction Eccentric Drive The eccentric drive used in the Innova shakers employs the same proven technology that has reliably driven New Brunswick Scientific s shakers for over 30 years. This drive mechanism utilizes a counterweight system to stabilize the rotary motion produced during operation. When the workload moves in one direction, opposing forces are generated to stabilize the shaker. This action will help eliminate the problem of walking that may occur with less precisely balanced instruments. Vibrations are minimized and the life of the unit is extended. Innova 5000 M

18 Bearings Innova shakers employ sealed lubricated ball bearings of the highest quality. Sealed bearings minimize the generation of airborne particulates that could be disadvantageous in clean rooms or controlled environment areas. This bearing design, which requires no maintenance, has performed reliably in New Brunswick shakers for many years Motor The Innova 5000 shaker uses a brushless ball bearing DC motor. This motor provides high torque along with quiet, efficient operation and low maintenance. The rugged motor has a rating of 1/3 horsepower. 1.7 Electronic Boards The main control board for the Innova shaker has the following functions: Non-volatile memory for storage of key parameters during power interruption. Speed sensing, electronic commutation and power control for the brushless DC drive motor. Maintaining an elapsed running time clock. Containing firmware for shaker control as well as recognition of an expansion connector for option modules. Providing an operator interface via displays, audible alarm and connection to the keypad module (keypad buttons and display graphics). The optional speed/monitor module is designed to piggy-back onto the main board via an expansion connector. It has the following functions: Control of analog power supplies. Providing remote monitoring capabilities by supplying analog outputs for speed that are compatible with chart recorders and analog data acquisition systems.
