2) Automatic rotor deration
You can register a rotor in the ultracentrifuge before use. After the rotor has been registered, you can
utilize the rotor management feature of the ultracentrifuge each time a run is made using the rotor.
When the registered rotor comes close to the end of its life, the ultracentrifuge indicates it by displaying a
message on the screen.
When the rotor reaches its primary life, the ultracentrifuge derates its maximum permitted speed and
indicates
an asterisk (*) to the right of the [krpm] indication in the Rotor management screen (refer to
Section 3-2-3 Rotor Selection") simultaneous with the change in maximum permitted speed. Once the
maximum permitted speed is derated, the actual speed of the rotor is automatically restricted within the
new limits.
The rotor life management data stored in the ultracentrifuge is not covered by the warranty. When a
rotor is used with the ultracentrifuge, be sure to record the rotor management data in the rotor log book.
If the rotor log book is not maintained correctly, the rotor will not be warranted.
3) Automatic rotor exclusion
When a registered rotor reaches the end of its life, the ultracentrifuge indicates it by displaying a message
on the screen. Subsequent runs of this registered rotor are precluded.
