1-8 Describing the MCS+ Centrifuge System
P/N 85213-30, Manual revision: B
The second style requires that the operator press the knob to separate the halves
of the split lid when opening the centrifuge. The knob can be engraved with either
the text “PUSH TO OPEN”, or a symbol of a lock.
The centrifuge can be locked once the split halves of the lid have been firmly
pressed together using the tabs. This knob is incorporated into an elevated base.
The knob needs to be turned and aligned with the appropriate symbol on the base
to place it in the locked or unlocked position.

Warning: The MCS+ device is equipped with a safety feature which will not al-
low the centrifuge to spin if the lid has been improperly closed. It is unlikely that
a properly installed centrifuge bowl will become unaligned as it spins. However,
if the operator should notice anything unusual about the bowl, under no cir-
cumstances, should the operator attempt to open the centrifuge lid if the bowl
is still spinning. The operator must ensure that the centrifuge has come to a
complete stop before attempting to open the lid for any reason.
