8. Operation    

CAUTION

•  Do not push or lean against the centrifuge while it is running.

•  Do not run the centrifuge when fragments or sample solutions are left in the centrifuge chamber. Always keep 

the centrifugal chamber clean. 

•  If the centrifuge makes a strange noise during operation, stop it immediately and contact Globe Scientific. 

Please include any warning code(s), if displayed.

8.1 Normal Operation

Turn on the power switch and the centrifuge will start self-diagnostic checks, see figure 8-1 below:

After self-diagnostics, the centrifuge will display the cumulative running time, see figure 8-2 below:

Figure 8-2 indicates the centrifuge has accumulated running time 312 hours 56 minutes and 45 seconds.  
Then the centrifuge displays the last running parameters, see figure 8-3 below:

Speed: 15000rpm; running time: 12 minutes; centrifugal chamber temperature: 25ºC. 
The lid lock is then released.
