8.1.2 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.
• 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.

accessories thoroughly.

8.1.2.2 Aluminium accessories
Especially aluminium parts are susceptible to corrosion.
• Acid-containing cleaning agents and alkaline cleaning agents must be
avoided.
• Grease aluminium parts at least once a week with slushing oil for
protection against corrosion (part no. 70104).
This essentially increases their service life and reduces susceptibility to
corrosion.
