JA-14.50 Fixed-Angle Rotor
Care and Maintenance
Contact your Beckman Coulter representative for information about the Field Rotor Inspection
Program and the rotor repair center.
2
Before using the rotor, inspect the rotor drive pins to ensure that they are not damaged.
Damaged drive pins can prevent the rotor from seating properly on the centrifuge drive hub
(Avanti J series centrifuges only).
To inspect the drive pins, turn the rotor upside down and look into the drive hole in the center
of the rotor.
3
Regularly lubricate the metal threads in the rotor with a thin, even coat of Spinkote lubricant.
Failure to keep these threads lubricated can result in damaged threads.
If the drive pins appear damaged, contact Beckman Coulter Field Service.

4
Regularly apply silicone vacuum grease to the O-rings.
Replace O-rings about twice a year or whenever worn or damaged.
5
Refer to
Chemical Resistances
(publication IN-175) for the chemical compatibilities of rotor and
accessory materials.
Your Beckman Coulter representative provides contact with the Field Rotor Inspection Program
and the rotor repair center.
Cleaning
Wash the rotor and rotor components immediately if salts or other corrosive materials are used or if
spillage has occurred. Do not allow corrosive materials to dry on the rotor.
Under normal use, wash the rotor frequently (at least weekly) to prevent buildup of residues.
1
Remove the O-rings before washing.
2
Wash the rotor and lid in a mild detergent, such as Solution 555 (339555), that won’t damage
the rotor.
Dilute the detergent with water (10 parts water to 1 part detergent).
