23.3 Autoclaving
Swing-out rotors, angle rotors made of aluminium, suspension made of metal, lids with bio-containment as well as
stands and reductions can be autoclaved at 121° C / 250°F (20 mins).
Otherwise you must ask the manufacturer.
No statement can be made about the degree of sterility.
The lids of the rotors and containers must be removed prior to autoclaving.
Autoclaving accelerates the ageing process of plastics. In addition, autoclaving may discolour plastics.
We recommend that the packing rings of the bio-safety system be replaced after autoclaving.
23.4 Centrifuge
containers
•
With leakiness or after the breakage of centrifuging containers broken container parts and leaked centrifugation
material are to be completely removed.
•
The rubber inserts as well as the plastic sleeves of the rotors are to be replaced after a glass breakage.
Remaining glass splitters cause further glass breakage!
•
If this concerns infectious material, a disinfection process is to be executed immediately.
24 Faults
If the fault cannot be eliminated with the help of the fault table, please inform Customer Service.
Please specify the type of centrifuge and the serial number. Both numbers can be found on the name plate of the
centrifuge.
Perform a MAINS RESET:
−
Switch off the mains switch (switch position "0").
−
Wait at least 10 seconds and then switch on the mains switch again (switch position "
Ι
").
