The temperature can be adjusted in steps of 0,5 °C and the centrifuging
time in minutes. All settings are non-volatile. They remain stored even
in case the centrifuge is switched off or the mains cable is disconnected.
All settings can be made only when centrifuge is in standby (not while
centrifuging).
2.2.2. Setting to operation
After having assembled and prepared the centrifuge according to point
1 of this manual the display is showing the desired speed (revolutions
per minute), the actual temperature (in oC) and the desired centrifuging
time by the active mode. Take care that the device is set up according
to the desired analysis method, i.e. the values (as per point 3) are set
properly.
2.2.3. Start of centrifuge
Attention: Recheck the right fastening of the tommy screw !
The test bottles have to be placed symmetrically to avoid unbalances.
Afterwards the lid is closed and pressed down until an audible catching
can be heard. Then press the key START and start centrifuging.
In case the lid was erroreously closed and the centrifuge has not yet
started it can be opened by pressing the key STOP/OPEN.
At the end of centrifuging time the centrifuge is braking and opening
the lid locking. The braking time depends on the speed. It is between
about 15 sec. (at 600 rpm) and 25 sec. (at 1100 rpm) Braking times are
preset.
The centrifuge switches off automatically in case it is out of balance and
the free moveable motor is touching the housing.
Hint: On account of safety reasons every switching off due to unbalance
is followed by a braking. Same is done in case of a coarse knocking on

glasses were broken it should be cleaned immediately
3. Settings
3.1. Setting of Speed
First press key "RpM/g". Then use the keys marked with arrow to find
the new desired speed.
The desired speed is variable between 600 and 1130 rpm in steps of 10.
Press the key "RpM/g" a second time in order to store the desired value.
3.2. Setting of Temperature
First press key "°C". The display is showing the set temperature. It can
be altered by the two keys marked with arrow.
By pressing the key "°C" a second time the desired temperature is
stored and the display is showing again the actual temperature.
Notice! During standby the centrifuge reduces the heating to avoid local
overheat. The amount of reduction is 10 °C.
3.3. Setting of Centrifuging time
First press key "TIME". By using the two keys marked with arrow the
new desired time can be set.
By pressing the key "TIME" a second time this setting is stored.
