rotors and swing-out rotors.
According to the German trade association regulation BGR500 chapter 2.11
part 3 the owner of the instrument is advised to take care of the following points:
1. According to BGR500 the owner has to provide operating instructions based
on those of the manufacturer and to inform the employees accordingly.
2. For safety reasons these operating instructions must clearly state that the
max. speed engraved on the rotor and/or the bucket and the max. allowable
filling quantity must not be exceeded.
3. If the density of the material exceeds 1.2 g/cm
3
, the max. speed of the centri-
fuge must be reduced.
4. Operation of the centrifuge in hazardous locations is not allowed.
5. During operation the centrifuge must not be moved. Leaning against or resting
on the centrifuge is not allowed.
6. Do not spin explosive or highly inflammable materials.

the buckets anyhow must not be centrifuged or only under consideration of
special safety measures. Infectious, toxic, pathogene or radioactive substan-
ces must be centrifuged in certified rotors only.
8. Keep a clearance of at least 30 cm around the centrifuge. Dangerous mate-
rials of any kind must not be put down or stored in that area.
