7.1 Initial cooling during centrifuging –FAST COOL
• The parameters allowable to change at
FAST COOL
mode:
• temperature (lower than current temperature shown by centrifuge)
• In order to centrifuge reduced temperature samples (e.g., storage in the external refrigerator)
centrifuge chamber, rotor and centrifuge container must be pre-cooling to the predetermined
temperature. It causes minimalization of temperature differences.
• Initial cooling may be activated by FAST COOL key (lid must be closed – rotor is spinning at FAST
COOL mode)
• When FAST COOL mode is active, cooling system automatically set proper parameters to obtain
demanded temperature the fastest way.
FAST COOL
mode is marked by symbol blinking in the right
upper side of display.
It is possible to exit
FAST COOL
mode at any time by pressing
STOP
key. Interruption of the function is signaled by a mes-
sage.
7.2 Initial cooling– THERMAL CHAMBER
PARAM →
THERMAL CHAMBER
0 RPM
• There is possible to run centrifuge in THERMAL CHAMBER mode - cooling for R (rotor is at standstill).
• How to enable
THERMAL CHAMBER
is described in Parameters of centrifugation chapter.
7.3 Cooling in “START DELAY – OF TEMPERATURE” mode
PARAM
→ START DELAY – OF TEMPERATURE
2500 RPM
• Centrifuging process will start, when preselected temperature is reached.
• How to enable run
START DELAY – OF TEMPERATURE
function is described in Parameters of
centrifugation chapter.
7.4 Cooling in „SHORT” mode
SHORT
mode
• Cooling features are available in SHORT mode.
• How to enable run centrifugation in
SHORT mode
is described in Centrifugation/SHORT mode.
7.5 Cooling notes
Centrifuges with cooling (C0336R) is equipped with an efficient cooling system. It allows obtaining selected
temperatures in the chamber even at maximum spin speed or fast obtaining desired temperatures (e.g. 4ºC and
36ºC). Note that time and possibility of obtaining a set temperature is dependent on multiple factors, including:
the power of the cooling system, the shape of the rotor, the rotor speed, ambient temperature, etc. The accuracy
of the temperature stability of ± 1ºC is determined by the installation place of the temperature sensor.
