Spin column and microcentrifuge tube lids are held securely
in slots at the edge of the rotor adapter.
Novel rotor adapters.
The wash position of the rotor adapter is open at the bottom,
enabling wash buffers to flow through and collect at the
bottom of the rotor adapter during centrifugation. The other
2 positions in the rotor adapter are closed. If processing
fewer than 12 samples, make sure to load the rotor
symmetrically with rotor adapters. For more information, see
Appendix B or the loading chart available at
www.qiagen.com/MyQIAcube .
WARNING Risk of personal injury and material damage
[W16]
Do not use damaged rotor adapters. The rotor adapters
are for single use only. Do not reuse the rotor adapters as
they can be damaged by the high g forces experienced in
the centrifuge.
Reagent bottle rack
The reagent bottle rack holds up to six 30 ml reagent bottles
and, for ease of use and high process safety, fits onto the
QIAcube worktable only in the correct orientation. Liquid is
aspirated from the bottles by the pipetting system. An
application-specific labeling strip must be attached to the
reagent bottle rack. For increased convenience and ease of
use, the labeling strip fits only in the correct orientation on
the reagent bottle rack. The use of the labeling strip allows
easy identification of buffer positions and ensures that the
