(2) What is an incubation room? /


Preparation for Incubation

What's an Incubation Room? / Preparation for Incubation


The Incubation Room is a confined space for setting and operating an incubator.
Because the incubation room environment has a considerable effect on hatch rate, it's recommended to
control the environment for setting up an incubator; there should be little noise and vibration around and
temperature ranging 28(82.4) with small variation in temperature. Especially, if there are frequent occasions
when the temperature drops suddenly at night, compared with daytime, be sure to check from time to time
and pay attention so that the incubator is not directly exposed to s
unlight during daytime.

Insert the electric cord in the connecting jack


in the back of the main body and put the main plug into a socket.
The LCD display will light up and show temperature.

Open the watercap and fill the hole with DISTILLED WATER and refill water after about 5 min.
again up to the limit line on its inside mark.
(If you refill water during the incubation period, humidity goes down temporarily.)
After filling up with water, never shake or turn over the main body of the incubator, which would cause
water to spill inside the body and could cause a breakdown.
During incubation period, check the DISTILLED WATER water levelabout every three days and refill water,
if necessary. (After you refill water, check again after 5min. and refill again.)

110V~120V

DISTILLED
WATER

In case you use the incubator without adding humidification water or intend to incubate eggs at low
humidity under RH 30%, you must stop its humidification function. please turn off the humidity unit if the
unit is empty water otherwise, humidity unit will be broke or you may not no longer use the unit.
(When using this function, the alarm for sensing water drop will go out.)
[See the description of humidification function OFF on Page 18]

K5H9

When you use the 'universal rolling divider' which is sold separately, be careful to adjust the distance of rolling
divider so that eggs do not roll out of position. Refer to the picture rignt side.

If you use Mineral water or Tap water for humidification,


the humidity unit can be broken easily because of water
scales. We strongly recommend you to use only
DISTILLED WATER for your machine, and
Autoelex Co.,Ltd & our distributors do not indemnify for
warranty service not only if you have any problem with
using mineral water, regular water, tab water and the like
but also if you had improper management or handling
for your machine. In this case, Autoelex Co.,Ltd. & our
distributors will charge for your after service.

You can buy the Distilled water in your local market, and if you have any question, please contact the

Place the eggs to incubate in the egg groove and


then close the view window.

Be careful to close the view window completely;


if not, the temperature and humidity will fail to go up.

5. Incubation

(1) Humidity & Air Maintenance during Incubation /


Maintenance after Hatching
(2) Dew Condensation

Humidity & Air Maintenance During Incubation


When hatching, humidity should be relatively high to prevent
the thin membrane from drying out or hardening before hatching.
When hatching, it's recommended not to open the lid often.
This is because if you open the lid often humidity will be rapidly
decreased and it will take a long time to regain the proper humidity.
Incubator internal temperature is 37 (99.5) or more, and
hatching room temperature is below 28, in that case, RH 70%
humidity is may not be able. The difference of 5% humidity
value may occur from the humidity sensors difference, and there
are no problems at hatching

Fklfn

hq




K5H9

It's very important to maintain humidity higher 1~2 days before


hatching than the early and middle incubation periods. Humidity
requirements during incubation are RH 45~55% for waterfowl,
RH 40~45% for poultry and RH 35~45% for parrot, in general.
One day before hatching, all kinds of birds need about RH 65%
humidity and sometimes need higher than that.
However, in areas of high ambient humidity, lower levels of
humidity may be needed during incubation.

K5H9

It's very important to keep humidity higher than RH 60%


before hatching 3days.

When the baby chickens hatch out,


please move them into a brooder.

Maintenance after Hatching


It is necessary to use a brooder for baby chicken or bird since they are too week against cold or cool environment.
If you try egg-hatching in your incubator, there would be lots of germs, feathers, which causes of low egg hatching
possibility for your next hatching. Also, they can make your incubator broken or faulty.
We strongly recommend you to use independent Hatcher or Brooder for egg-hatching.
If you have any faulty or broken because of not using independent Hatcher or Brooder, we do not serve you the
free warranty service. In other words, you have to pay for the service charge.
To make a simple Hatcher or Brooder, please refer to the our web-site (www.Rcom.co.kr).

Please do not try to egg-hatching in the incubator. It makes your incubator broken or faulty, and we do not
give you free warranty service. (Please move all the eggs 1~3 days before hatching into Hatcher or Brooder.)
Hatcher : The machine for egg-hatching. Operate it 1~3 days before egg-hatching. (Rcom MARU H&B)
Brooder : The machine makes baby chickens or birds warm up against cold or cool environment. You can
set up proper temperature and humidity. (Rcom MARU H&B / Rcom Brooder Series)
As there is some difference in chick feed for each kind of bird, so it's desirable to obtain useful information
about the chicks before hatching.

Be sure to use a three-wavelength 20W bulb. If you


use a bulb over 20W. temperature goes up, possibly
killing the chick or causing a fire. If there is too much
water and a chick would falls into water, its feathers
get wet and it can be died of loss of body heat. Here,
dry feathers with a hairdryer. etc
Be sure to use a three-wavelength 20W bulb :

Dew Condensation
Fklfn

This is a naturally occurring phenomenon when there is a


significant difference in temperature between inside and
outside of the incubator during incubation period. If this occurs,
water may form in inside bottom of the main body of the
incubator(bottom part).

6. How to Clean

(1) How to Disassemble

Pull out the electric cord from the connecting jack and
also take out the plug from the outlet.
Don't turn off the power soon after using the incubator,
as this may cause a break down due to moisture left
inside the main controller. At this time, it's better to
firstly remove the water inside of the incubator and dry
by operating it for 1hour and then turn it off or open the
view window and dry it naturally for 2~3 hours and,
then, re-operate it, which may lengthen the life time of
incubator.
(Set humidification function OFF. / Refer to the page 18)

110V~120V

How to disassemble and clean the incubator

1
Unlock and remove the locking buttons for
three parts at the front and back of incubator
by pulling them forward.

back
9F

K5H

2
The bottom part of incubator should be thoroughly cleaned
with water and dried. The upper part should be naturally dried
in the well-ventilated place for about one day to remove
moisture left inside of the incubator after hatching thoroughly.
Don't clean the product with organic solvents such as
benzene, thinner, etc. which may cause deformation or
decoloration of the plastic parts.

3
When using humidification function, a lot of alien matter
sticks to the humidification heating element . This may not
cause failure, but when terminating incubation please clean
the humidifying heater lightly with a soft brush.

5IH

If you place the main body(upper part) on the floor,


please don't let the humidification heating part touch with the
floor.
If you inflict impact on the humidification heating part or
scrape it with a sharp instrument, the humidifying heater
will be damaged.

We kindly recommend you to use distilled water


In order to reduce a foreign substance on the
