Fig. 6.34: Rapid cooling program "RAPID_TEMP"
The program will only be loaded if the actual temperature is above
the set temperature.
The program runs until the set value is reached. Then, a sound signal
is issued, and the standstill colling is activated. The program that was
set beforehand will be reloaded.
Press the stop key to determinate the rapid cooling program
prematurely.
The automatic lid opening function is suppressed after a rapid
cooling phase in order to prevent the system from reheating.
An entry will interrupt the rapid cooling program. There will be no
message when the set temperature is reached. If no new runtime is
entered, the centrifuge will continue to run infinitely (continuous run).
Radius
The radius determines the value of the relative centrifugal force
(RCF) that the sample is subjected to. Normally, the maximum RCF
value is displayed. If the value is reduced manually, a downward
facing arrow ( ) will be displayed in the RCF field.
Density
If the density of the liquid is higher than 1.2 g/cm
3
, the value must be
adapted manually. This, in turn, reduces the maximum final speed
(see 11.4.2 “Density“). A downward facing arrow ( ) will be displayed
in the speed field. Values between 1.2 and 9.9 g/cm
3
are possible.
