Legend™ T (air cooled)
During centrifugation, heat is generated by air friction
between the rapidly spinning rotor and the air inside
the rotor chamber. The continuous air flow in the air
cooled centrifuge is restricting the temperature rise of
the samples. The equilibrium temperature rise de-
pends on the ambient temperature, the type of rotor,
the speed, the duration and the number of runs.
Use caution when touching rotors as
they may be hot after long runs at
high speed.
