•
The lid emergency release may be used in emergencies only to recover the samples from the
centrifuge, e.g. during a power failure (see section “Mechanical Emergency Door Release” on
page 7-2 ).
•
Never use the centrifuge if parts of its cover panels are damaged or missing.
•
Do not touch the electronic components of the centrifuge or alter any electronic or mechanical
components.
•
Please observe the safety instructions.
Please pay particular attention to the following aspects:
•
Location: well-ventilated environment, set-up on a level and rigid surface with adequate
load-bearing capacity.
•
Rotor installation: make sure the rotor is locked properly into place before operating the
centrifuge.
•
Especially when working with corrosive samples (salt solutions, acids, bases), the accessory parts
and vessel have to be cleaned carefully.
•
Always balance the samples.
Centrifuging hazardous substances:
•
Do not centrifuge explosive or flammable materials or substances which could react violently with
one another.
•
The centrifuge is neither inert nor protected against explosion. Never use the centrifuge in an
explosion-prone environment.
•
Do not centrifuge inflammable substances.
•
Do not centrifuge toxic or radioactive materials or any pathogenic micro-organisms without
suitable safety precautions.
When centrifuging microbiological samples from the Risk Group II (according to the
“ Bio-safety
Manual ” of the World Health Organization WHO), aerosol-tight biological seals have to be used.
For materials in a higher risk group, extra safety measures have to be taken.
•
If toxins or pathogenic substances have gotten into the centrifuge or its parts, appropriate
disinfection measures have to be taken (see “Disinfection” on page 6-3 ).
•
Highly corrosive substances which can cause material damage and impair the mechanical stability
of the rotor, should only be centrifuged in corresponding protective tubes.
IF A HAZARDOUS SITUATION OCCURS, TURN OFF THE POWER SUPPLY TO THE
CENTRIFUGE AND LEAVE THE AREA IMMEDIATELY.
Intended Use
The centrifuge is to be used for separating materials of different density or particle size suspended in a
liquid.
