6 Unpacking the centrifuge
If packaging arrives damaged, it must be confirmed by the carrier and the centrifuge must be specially
inspected.
To avoid damage, do not unpack the appliance until you reach the installation site.
Check the delivery note to ensure that the delivery is complete. Check the appliance for damage.
Take care, you could injure your skin on the edge of the cardboard packaging carton.
Lift the centrifuge on both sides and not on the frontpanel. Take it out of the box with an adequate
amount of people to help you.
According to the laboratory instrument standards EN / IEC 61010-2-020 an emergency switch to
disconnect the power supply in the event of a failure must be installed in the building electrical system.
This switch has to be placed remote from the centrifuge, preferably outside of the room in which the
centrifuge is installed or near by the exit of this room.
Before the centrifuge is connected to the power or the lid is opened using the emergency opening,
place the centrifuge carefully on one side so that the three transport locking screws on the underside
of the centrifuge can be removed with the help of the enclosed hexagon L-key wrench. Carefully place
the centrifuge back on its feet, connect the power correctly, and operate the centrifuge and open the
lid, so that the transport foam of the supplied rotor, or the additional transport lock on delivery without
rotor, can be removed.
Position the centrifuge in a stable and level manner in a suitable place. During set-up, the required
safety margin of 300 mm around the centrifuge is to be kept according to EN / IEC 61010-2-020.1
When the centrifuge is running, according to EN / IEC 61010-2-020, no persons, dangerous
substances or objects may be within the safety margin of 300 mm around the centrifuge.
If you notice deviations from the delivery note, damage or irregularities, do not put the appliance
into operation, but inform the haulage company and your supplier.
If possible, keep the transportation material and the transportation safety device in a safe and dry place.
6.1 Storage after delivery
If the device must first be stored after delivery, then check the box from outside for damage and if it is so,
inform the haulage company and your supplier immediately. For the storage conditions, refer to tab. 1.0
technical specifications.
6.2 Installation after storage
If the storage environment was outside the working environment, then you must allow the device to acclimatise
to the new environment for 24 hours without connecting to the power.
