Precooling the Centrifuge
Ensure the rotor, buckets and accessories are correctly in place and securely attached in the
chamber. For setting the pretemp value for the centrifuge proceed as follows:
1.
Press the TEMP display area to access the number keypad. On the bottom left corner of the
screen, press the Pre-cool button.
2.
The centrifuge motor will start and a specific speed defined by the rotor. This improves air
circulation within the chamber, resulting in improved temperature control throughout the
chamber and rotor. The rotor chamber is cooled down to the preset temperature.
Programs
The Newton Scientific EVO 10 Centrifuge is able to save up to 99 programs. It is only possible to save
a program if the centrifuge is in standstill. Loading or saving of programs is not possible if the
centrifuge is spinning.
Saving a Program
1.
Press the <PROG> button and select Program number that you wished to manage.
2.
Proceed to modify the speed, time and temperature to the desired values.
3.
Saving is confirmed when the changed parameter stops blinking.
Selecting a Program
Press on the <PROG> button and scroll through the list to select the desired program. Press <Start>
to run the selected program.

Maximum Loading
WARNING:
Injuries with fatal consequences can occur when using substance mixtures with a
higher density than 1.2 at maximum speed .
Rotors can run at high speeds. Each rotor is specifically designed to run at its maximum speed with a
defined load. For further details refer page 12 to find maximum speed allowed for the corresponding
rotor.
The rotors are designed to work with substance mixtures with a density of up to 1.2 g/ml. Above this
density or if total load is above the maximum weight the following steps should be taken:
•
Reduce the fill level.
•
Reduce the speed.
