Introduction and Description SORVALL

Centrifuges
1-2
For rotors:
Remove tubes, bottles, and adapters from the rotor and
decontaminate rotor using an appropriate method. If tubes
or rotor caps are stuck in the rotor, or the rotor door is stuck,
notify Sorvall representative; be prepared with the name
and nature of the sample so the Sorvall Chemical Hazards
Officer can decide whether to authorize the rotor's return to
a Sorvall facility.
2. Complete Decontamination Information Certificate (SORVALL ®
products Form No. IPDP-59 or E53603) and attach it to the
centrifuge or rotor before servicing or returning to Sorvall facil-
ity. Certificates are included in the back of this manual. Addi-
tional certificates are available from the local Account Repre-
sentative or Field Service Engineer. In the event that these
certificates are not available, it will be acceptable to include a
written statement certifying that the unit has been properly
decontaminated and outlining the procedures used.
If the centrifuge or rotor must be returned to a Sorvall facility:
1. Contact your Sorvall representative to obtain a Return Service
Order Number (RSO No.). Be prepared with the name and
serial number of the centrifuge or rotor and the repairs re-
quired.
2. Send item(s) with the RSO No. clearly marked on the outside
packaging to the address obtained from your Sorvall represen-
tative.
NOTE
United States federal regulations require that parts and
centrifuges
must be decontaminated before being trans-
ported. Outside the United States, check local regula-
tions.
If a centrifuge or rotor to be serviced does not have a
Decontamination Information Certificate attached and, in Sorvall's
opinion presents a potential radioactive or biological hazard, the
Sorvall representative will not service the equipment until proper
decontamination and certification is complete. If Sorvall receives a
centrifuge or rotor at its Service facilities which, in its opinion, is a
radioactive or biological hazard, the sender will be contacted for
instructions as to disposition of the equipment. Disposition costs
will be borne by the sender.
NOTE
The Field Service Engineer will note on the Customer
Service Repair Report if decontamination was required
and, if so, what the contaminant was and what proce-
dure was used. If no decontamination was required, it
will be so stated.
