Preinstallation Requirements
Using J2 Series Rotors in the Avanti JXN Series
Figure A.4 Checking the Rotor for Drive Pins
The rotor pins are positioned parallel to the
Beckman
name engraved at the center of the rotor body
(see Figure A.4 ). Knowing the pin orientation before you install the rotor will help to ensure that
you position the rotor properly on the hub, minimizing the chance of hub damage.
Check all J2 series rotors for drive pins before using them in an Avanti JXN series centrifuge and do not use
rotors without drive pins in the
Avanti JXN series. To check for drive pins, hold the rotor up or turn it
on its side and look into the drive hole. If you do not see two metal pins in the hole, do not use the
rotor in the Avanti JXN series. Call your local Beckman Coulter office
*
for information on returning
the rotor to the factory for upgrading.
