⚫
When placing the rotor, ensure the full contact between the rotor and the main shaft.
⚫
Load the rotor on to the shaft to ensure rotor is in position until it is well connected to the main shaft.
⚫
If the rotor is loaded properly on the shaft, you will feel a “click” sound otherwise it is understood that
the rotor is not secured properly on the main shaft. Check once again and if necessary clean it again.
⚫
Rotate the rotor slightly with your fingers to check if the rotor vibrates, if so attach the rotor again.
⚫
Rotate the nut clockwise using the wrench to tighten the rotor to the shaft firmly.
⚫
Rotate the rotor lid in clockwise to the rotor and close the rotor lid and ensure t h a t i t is in position.
Close the centrifuge lid and start operation.
⚫
Remove the rotor after operation same as above by turning the locking nut counterclockwise.
8.1.2 Set operating parameters
Press the select button
gently to select the parameters and set the parameter values to desired
setting. Use the parameter adjustment knob
to set the selected parameters (whichever parameter
icon flashes). Rotate the parameter adjustment knob in clockwise/anticlockwise direction to increase or
decrease the parameter values to achieve the desired setting. The minimum speed increment is 10rpm, the
minimum time increment is 1 second.
(1)
Set the rotation speed
•
Press the select button
to select the rotation speed in rpm.
•
The speed value flashes indicating that the speed is in adjustment mode
•
The minimum set speed is 500rpm, and the minimum step is 100rpm.
•
Turn the parameter adjustment knob
clockwise/anti-clockwise to increase/decrease the
parameter value.
(2) Set the running time
•
Press the select button
to make the time value flash and enter into the time setting mode.
•
Turn the parameter adjustment knob
to input the set time within a range of 10sec-99min.
•
The centrifuge enters into continuous run mode if the time indicates HD.
Caution
⚫
Place the rotor on the main shaft and ensure full contact between the rotor and the main shaft. Screw
up the nut on the rotor tightly using a wrench to connect the rotor with the main shaft firmly,
otherwise the rotor might fall off, causing damage to the centrifuge.
⚫
Tighten the lid and rotor firmly.
