Description
RPM
When centrifuge power is turned on, the display shows “0000.”
During the run the display indicates actual rotor speed to the nearest
10-rpm increment. If the run is shut down prematurely due to one
of four conditions (see Section 4,
TROUBLESHOOTING
), the
diagnostic message “8880” will be displayed.
TEMPERATURE
(refrigerated models only)
This knob is used to set the operating temperature between –10 and
+40°C in 1°C increments. (Recommended operating temperature
range is from –5 to +25°C.) A thermistor in the chamber regulates
the compressor to maintain chamber temperature ±2°C of the set
temperature.

NOTE
Longer continuous runs are required to achieve
temperatures higher than 25°C.

Temperature control is referenced for 25°C ambient; temperature performance at higher ambient will depend on the rotor in use and
environmental conditions.
