8. ROTOR BALANCING
1. Always balance the rotor before centrifugation. The following are symmetrical
loadings of centrifuge tu bes to the rotor.
2. Ensure thatthe samples in the tubes are of equal volume.
3. Symmetrical loading of tu bes in the rotor is necessary, otherwise vibration can
occurwhich can cause serious damage to the centrifuge.
4. The following are the incorrect methods of loading tu bes in the centrifuge the
rotor.
5. The following are the incorrect methods of loading tu bes in the centrifuge the
rotor.

10. CHANGING TH E ROTOR
This centrifuge feature magnetic rotors.
Thus changing the rotors can be done
without any tool. The rotors fit an the
central shaft of the motor through
magnet situated at the both the rotors
(MCT & PCR rotor). The rotor fits
through snap to the central shafts
through gentle guidance into the
groove an the rotor adapter (Pull the
rotor upwards with both hands gently
and replace it with required rotor) .
