Handling rotors
Swinging Bucket Rotors
All positions must always be loaded
with identical carrier buckets!
Buckets of identical weight categories should always
be installed in opposing rotor positions to avoid imbal-
ance.
On swinging bucket rotors, at regular
intervals, apply a light coating of lubricant to
the rotor body trunnion pins and to the cor-
responding mating surfaces of the buckets!
Lubricant 7000 6692 is supplied with the
centrifuge.
Lifetime of the rotor
There is no limitation on the service life of the high
performance rotors. However please observe the fol-
lowing due to safety reasons:
Rotors and accessories made of
plastic should not be exposed to
direct sunlight and UV rays!
If the rotor shows signs of discolor-
ation, deformation or wear, or is out
of balance it must be exchanged
straight away!
Permissible rotor temperature
The rotors made of plastic are only
to be used within the temperature
range from -4oC to +40oC.
Pre-cooling in the freezer is not
permitted
