Accessories
CAUTION
For the care of the accessories, special safety measures must be
considered as these are measures that will ensure operational safety at
the same time!
• Immediately rinse off the rotor, buckets, or accessories under running
water if they have come into contact with any liquids that may cause
corrosion. Use a brush for test tubes in order to clean the bores of angle
rotors. Turn the rotor upside down and allow it to dry completely.
• Clean the accessories outside the centrifuge once a week or preferably
after each use. Adapters should be removed, cleaned and dried.
CAUTION
Do not clean the accessories in a dishwasher!
Cleaning in a dishwasher removes the anodised coating; the result is
cracking in areas that are subject to stress.
• If the rotors or accessories have been contaminated with toxic,
radioactive, or pathogenic substances, clean them immediately with a
suitable decontamination agent (depending on the type of
contamination).
Take suitable precautions for your own safety if there is
a risk of toxic, radioactive, or pathogenic contamination.
• Dry the accessories with a soft cloth or in a drying chamber at
approx. 50°C.
