This device is intended to be operated by properly trained personnel
who have carefully read the operating manual and are familiar with the
function of the device.
•
For the safety of both the operator and service personnel, care should
be taken when using this centrifuge if handling substances that are
known to be toxic, radioactive or contaminated with pathogenic
microorganisms. When Risk Group II materials are used, (as identified in
the World Health Organization “Laboratory Bio-Safety Manual”), a Bio-
Seal should be employed. The Bio-Seal accessory for the model is the
non-aerosol shield cap with appropriate tube holders (contact Drucker
Diagnostics to purchase). In the event that materials of a higher risk
group are being used, more than one level of protection must be
provided.
•
The use of flammable or explosive materials as well as those materials
which have a vigorous chemical reaction is prohibited.
•
For your safety and the durability of your machine, never transport or
store centrifuge with tube holders inside machine.
•
Inspect centrifuge for cracks or physical damage to cabinet, lid, rotor, or
tube holders. Damage may result in unsafe operation. Discontinue use
until repairs have been performed.
•
Users should also comply with the specimen receptable manufacturer’s
specific instructions for use, in addition to any other protocols
established by the testing organization
