Operations
Zonal and Continuous Flow Operation
3
For Continuous Flow operation, you may have two different load speed settings. The initial setting
is for alignment and adjustment checks, which you set in this phase.
When everything else is ready, mount the rotor.
Starting the Run
To start the run, select the
Start
Button and wait for the rotor to reach loading speed. The status
display at the top of the screen highlights Starting.
For a Continuous Flow run, you need to perform alignment and adjustment checks as detailed in the
rotor manual. You may need to use the
Slow to Zero RPM
button to make adjustments and restart
with the
Start
Button. Using the
Slow to Zero RPM
button will bring the rotor to a stop, but the
instrument will remain in Zonal mode. Refer to Figure 3.11 . When the rotor passes the alignment
and adjustment checks, set the new loading speed (if it is different from the adjustment speed) and
select the
Start
Button again.
Figure 3.11 Zonal Page
When the rotor reaches the Loading speed, the status display highlights Loading, to show that you
have moved into the next phase.
Loading the Sample
In the Loading phase, you inject the sample into the medium in the rotor. Again, the details depend
on the rotor and the type of operation as detailed in the rotor manual. When you have finished all
the specified loading steps, close the door and select the
To Running
button to go to the next phase.
NOTE
While operating in Zonal mode, open-door operation up to 3000 RPM is allowed, but only during the
Loading and Unloading steps.
