Translation of the original operating manual
Press the right function key in order to confirm the input. If this is
not done, the value will be automatically reset to the last setting.
It is also possible to change the runtime during the centrifugation run.
If the centrifugation time is changed during the run, the centrifuge will
run for the entire new time and will disregard the previous runtime that
has already elapsed.
Abb. 6.6: Setting the time
Changing the time increments
The runtime can be selected in steps of 1 second (instead of in steps
of 10 seconds in the min:sec mode) or in steps of 1 minute (instead of
in steps of 10 minutes in the hrs:min mode):
Keep the stop key pressed while setting the desired runtime with
the right function key.
Short Run
During the short run, the centrifuge accelerates at maximum power
until the maximum permissible speed of the rotor is reached. A short
run can only be started when the centrifuge is at a standstill.
Keep the start key pressed during the short run.
The message “short run” is displayed in the time display and the
duration of the short run is also displayed (Fig. 6.7). When the start
key is released, the centrifuge decelerates at maximum brake to a
standstill. The start key is illuminated.
After the short run, the set parameters are displayed again.
