Rotor Preselection
The centrifuge SIGMA 3-16P is equipped with an automatic rotor identification
system. After the installation of the rotor, the rotor ID will be displayed. It is also
possible to manually preselect the rotor. This is only possible at a standstill.
To select a rotor:
•
Turn the left rotary knob until “set” appears in front of the option “Rotor” on
the display (Fig. 5.16).
•
Select the option by pressing or turning the right rotary knob. "Set" will now
flash.
•
Turn the right rotary knob until the desired rotor number is displayed.
•
Press the right rotary knob or the start key to confirm the input. If this is not
done, the value will be automatically reset to the last setting.
Attention!
The system performs an automatic rotor check after the start. If another rotor
than the preselected on is installed, the installed rotor will be displayed and the
preselected speed will be corrected if necessary.
