Liquid spills in the centrifuge
The rotor adapter is designed for use with QIAGEN automated protocols. Do not fill the rotor
adapters with liquid.
Liquid spills may occur if QIAGEN spin columns become blocked due to sample overloading. Do
not exceed the maximum amount of starting material.
Incorrect installation of the centrifuge buckets may also cause rotor adapters to leak. Check that the
buckets are installed properly and can swing freely.
If there is a liquid spill in the centrifuge, clean according to the instructions in section 6, Cleaning
and Maintenance.

Reagent volume detection and ultrasonic pipe
To help prevent errors during detection of reagent volumes, make sure that both rack labeling strips
are attached to the reagent bottle rack. These strips ensure that the reagent bottle rack is positioned
correctly on the worktable for liquid detection during the load check.
