Safety instructions
For your protection:
•
Read the operating instructions in full before start-
ing up and follow the safety instructions.
• Keep the operating instructions in a place where they can
be accessed by everyone.
• Ensure that only trained staff work with the appliance.
• Follow the safety instructions, guidelines, occupational
health and safety and accident prevention regulations.
• Wear your personal protective equipment in accordance
with the hazard category of the medium to be processed.
Otherwise there is a risk of:
- splashing and evaporation of liquids
- body parts, hair, clothing and jewellery getting caught.
• Set up the stand in a spacious area on an even, stable,
clean, non-slip, dry and fireproof surface.
• The feet of the appliance must be clean and undamaged.
• Check the appliance and accessories beforehand for damage
each time you use them. Do not use damaged components.
• Before using the centrifuge, always check the cover for
cracks. If damage is evident, send the device back to have
the cover replaced..
• Before using the centrifuge, check the rotor for secure at-
tachment. Ensure the rotor is well secured, see "Inserting
and removing the rotor".
• The rotor is subjected to extreme forces. Serious inter-
nal material damage can occur as a result of even slight
scratches and cracks. Do not use the device if the rotor is
damaged.
• Do not operate the centrifuge if there is evidence of dam-
age to the centrifuge chamber.
• The device must be supervised when it is running.
• The appliance is not suitable for manual operation.
• Always load the rotors symmetrically.
• Load the rotor only as described in the section "Loading the
rotor" in the chapter "Setting up and commissioning".
• Always load the rotor so that no impermissible imbalances
arise during centrifuging.
• The density of the substance or mixture of substances must
not exceed 1.2 kg/dm3 when the centrifuge is running at
maximum speed.
• If unusual noises occur when the centrifuge is started, the
rotor is not secured correctly. In this case, immediately press
"STOP" to stop the centrifuge.
• While the centrifuge is running, the safety clearance of 300
mm all around must be kept clear of persons, objects and
hazardous materials.
• In the event of a fault, never reach into the rotor chamber
when the rotor is rotating.
• Pressing the "Cover release" button while the centrifuge is
running opens the cover and triggers a quick stop of the
motor. This can lead to poor centrifuging results.
• While the centrifuge is running, do not move it or strike it.
When centrifuging hazardous
substances or mixtures of sub-
stances which are toxic or are
contaminated with pathogenic micro-organisms, the user
should take appropriate precautions. In such cases, centri-
fuging vessels with special screw seals for hazardous sub-
stances must always be used. For materials in risk groups 3
and 4, in addition to sealed centrifuging vessels a biosafety
system must be used (see the "Laboratory Biosafety Manu-
al" issued by the World Heath Organisation). No biosafety
systems are available for this centrifuge.
• If you are using aggressive chemicals, protect the device
from being damaged by these chemicals.
• Broken glass centrifuging vessels and glass splinters pose a
risk of injury.
• In the event of unbalance or unusual noises, switch off the
appliance immediately. In addition, if imbalances or unusual
noises occur, send the device to the dealer or the manufac-
turer for repair, accompanied by a description of the fault.
• Refer to the operating instructions for the accessories!
• Only process media that will not react dangerously to the
extra energy produced through processing. This also applies
to any extra energy produced in other ways, e.g. through
light irradiation.
• Process pathogenic materials only in closed vessels under a
suitable extractor hood. Please contact IKA if you have any
questions.
• Do not operate the appliance in explosive atmospheres,
with hazardous substances or under water.
• Do not process materials that are radioactive, flammable or
explosive, or materials that react chemically with each other
releasing large amounts of energy.
• Safe operation is only guaranteed with the accessories de-
scribed in the ”Accessories” chapter.
• Always disconnect the plug before fitting accessories.
• The appliance can only be disconnected from the mains
supply by pulling out the mains plug or the connector plug.
• The socket for the mains cord must be easily accessible.
• The appliance does not start up again automatically follow-
ing a cut in the power supply.
For protection of the equipment:
• The appliance may only be opened by experts.
• The voltage stated on the type plate must correspond to
the mains voltage.
• Removable parts must be refitted to the appliance to pre-
vent the infiltration of foreign objects, liquids etc..
• Protect the device and accessories from bumping and im-
pacting.
• The device must only be operated with the original plug-in
power supply unit.
