Starting centrifugation
A centrifugation run can be aborted at any time by pressing
the [STOP/OPEN] key.
During a centrifugation run, parameters can be selected
and changed
‘Changing settings during the centrifugation
run’ on page 44.
The [RPM] and [RCF] buttons can be used to switch
between the ‘RPM’ and ‘RCF’ display at any time.
Switching is not possible if program linkages are being
used. If the ‘RCF’ display is used, the centrifuging radius
must be input.
If ‘OPEN OEFFNEN’ is displayed, it is only possible to con-
tinue to operate the device after opening the lid one time.
Operating errors and malfunctions are dis-
played
Chapter 9 ‘Troubleshooting’ on page 72.
Rotor detection is carried out after each centrifugation run is started.
If the rotor was changed, the centrifugation run is aborted after rotor detec-
tion. The rotor code (rotor types), the maximum rotor speed (Nmax) and a
centrifuging radius (R) of the newly detected rotor are displayed, e.g.,
‘Rotor
4 Nmax= 2500 R=184’mm.
If the maximum speed of the used rotor is less than the set
speed, the speed is limited to the maximum rotor speed. In
this case, the program location number is displayed in
parentheses ‘( )’ .
To start a centrifugation run, proceed as follows:
1.
Load the corresponding program
Chapter 7.1.1 ‘Calling up/loading
program (RCL 1-99)’ on page 44 or program link
‘Calling up/loading a program link (RCL A-Z)’ on page 45.
2.
Load the rotor with the samples
Chapter 6.5 ‘Loading the rotor’
3.
Close the lid of the device.
4.
Press the
[START] key to start the centrifugation run.
For devices with cooling, the rotor precooling can
also be started by pressing the [Rotor precooling] key.
If the cycle counter is activated, the number of running
cycles (centrifugation runs) of the used rotor code is briefly
displayed after opening the lid, e.g., ‘CYCLES 5120 of
