Operation
Before operating the centrifuge, be sure that the power switch is in the ON position. To begin a run,
simply close the lid of the centrifuge. No other controls are required. To stop rotation, press down on the
lid release tab on the front of the unit. This will release the lid lock, and the rotor will slow gradually to a
complete stop. CAUTION: Do not attempt to open the lid or remove samples until the unit
has come to a complete stop. After the rotor has stopped, the lid may be opened so it sits back on
the hinge.
Safe operation of the centrifuge requires that the load of the rotor be balanced. Failure to load
the rotor properly presents a hazardous condition and may damage the centrifuge. Individual
tubes, strip tubes and/or adapters must always be loaded symmetrically to ensure proper
balance.
Safety Precautions
NEVER!
•
Use the centrifuge in any manner not specified in these instructions
•
Operate the centrifuge without a rotor properly attached to the shaft
•
Fill tubes while they are in the rotor. Liquid spillage may harm unit
•
Run the centrifuge with only one strip tube in place
•
Put hands in the rotor area unless the rotor is completely stopped
•
Move the centrifuge while the rotor is spinning
•
Use solvents or flammables near this or other electrical equipment
•
Centrifuge flammable, explosive or corrosive materials
•
Centrifuge hazardous materials outside of a hood or proper containment facility
ALWAYS!
•
Load the rotor symmetrically so each tube is counter-balanced by another.
The weight of individual tubes must not exceed of 3.0g
•
Locate the centrifuge within easy reach of an electrical outlet
•
Use only plastic microcentrifuge tubes that are designed to withstand centrifugal forces
of at least 2,000 xG
