ROTORS
NEVER use the rotors and round carriers with signs of corrosion or other
mechanical defects.
NEVER centrifuge highly corrosive substances which may cause material
impairment and lower mechanical properties of rotor and round carriers.
NEVER use rotors and accessories specified by the manufacturer. You must
use commercial glass and plastic test tubes, which are destined to centrifuging
in this laboratory centrifuge. One should absolutely not use poor quality
elements. Cracking of glass vessels and test tubes could result in dangerous
vibration of the centrifuge.
NEVER carry out centrifugation with the rotor caps taken off or not driven
tight.
Residual risk
The centrifuge is built according to the state-of-the-art and the recognized safety regulations.
Nevertheless, there remains some level of residual risk due to improper operation and
malfunctions. It is possible to decrease residual risk by strictly applying user manual conditions
and correcting malfunction which could threaten safety, immediately.
