The rotor can run at high speeds. The rotor design has sufficient reserve stability even when spinning at
top speed.
The safety system of the centrifuge requires that you do not overload the rotor.
There are two options available for centrifuging samples whose weight, including adaptor, exceeds the
maximum permissible load:
•
Reduce the fill level.
Reduce the speed.
Use the table or the formula:
n
adm
= admissible speed
n
max
= maximum speed
