Centrifuge user manual | 5
EXPLOSIVE AND COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
• It is not allowed to centrifuge explosive and inflammable materials.
• It is not allowed to centrifuge substances prone to reacting in result of supplying high energy during
centrifugation. The centrifuge cannot be operated in explosion-endangered areas
• It is not allowed to centrifuge materials capable of generating inflammable or explosive mixtures
when subjected to air.
4.5 Maintenance conditions
START-UP
• Prior to switching the centrifuge on, one shall read carefully all sections of this instruction in order to
ensure smooth operation and avoid damages of this device or its accessories.
• In order to protect the centrifuge against unbalance, fill in the test tubes up to the same weight.
TRANSPORTATION
• Centrifuge must not be transported with the rotor mounted on the shaft.
GENERAL HINTS
• One must use original rotors, test-tubes and spare parts only.
• In case of faulty operation of the centrifuge one shall ask for assistance of service of LABNET
INTERNATIONAL company or its authorized representatives.
• It is not allowed to switch the centrifuge on if it is not installed properly or rotor is not fitted correctly.
CENTRIFUGES SUBSTANCES
• It isn’t allowed to exceed load limit set by the manufacturer. Rotors are intended for fluids of average
homogeneous density equal to 1,2 g/cm3 or smaller when centrifugation is carried out at maximum
speed. When fluids of higher density shall be used, then it is necessary to change density of centrifuges
sample in PARAM/DENSITY field.
4.6 Safety precautions
For safety reasons, inspections of the centrifuge carried out by the authorized service at least once a year after the
period of warranty. The reason for more frequent inspections could be corrosion inducing environment. Examina-
tions should end with issuing report of validation that checks on the technical state of the laboratory centrifuge. It
is being recommended to establish document where every repairs and reviews are being registered. Both these
documents should be stored in the place of use of the centrifuge.
INSPECTION PROCEDURES CARRIED OUT BY THE OPERATOR
Operator has to pay special attention to the fact that the centrifuge parts of key importance due to
safety reasons are not damaged. This remark is specifically important as for:
• Centrifuge accessories and especially structural changes, corrosion, preliminary cracks, abrasion
of metal parts.
• Screw joints.
• Inspection of the rotor assembly.
• Inspection of bioseals of the buckets if such are used.
• Control of execution of the guarantee yearly technical inspection of the centrifuge
Only the manufacturer-specified holders, included in the equipment list, as well as centrifuge capillar-
ies, which diameter, length and durability are suitable, should be used for spinning in this centrifuge.
The use of equipment made by other manufacturers should be consulted with the manufacturer of
the centrifuge.
• It is not allowed to lift or shift the centrifuge during operation, and rest on it.
• It is not allowed to stay in the safety zone within 30 cm distance around the centrifuge neither leave
within this zone some things, e.g. glass vessels.
• It is not allowed to put any objects on the centrifuge.
COVER OPENING
• It isn’t allowed to open the cover manually in emergency procedure when rotor is still turning.
