8. Short-term Centrifugation
For quick centrifugation, the centrifuge has a PULSE-function�
By holding down the PULSE key, spinning will start at the set acceleration rate, continue at maximum
rotor speed until the key is released� The rotor then decelerates at the set selected deceleration rate�
Any rpm or RCF entered beforehand is overridden� When stopped previous set values are restored�
NOTICE
The centrifuge accelerates to maximum speed according to the rotor used�
Check carefully whether you have to maintain a certain speed for your application�
During the acceleration process, time is counted forwards in seconds� The reading stays displayed
until the centrifuge door is opened�
9. Removing the Rotor
To remove the rotor, proceed as follows:
1�
Open the centrifuge door�
2�
Grab the rotor handle and fully depress the Auto-Lock button� At the same time, pull the rotor
vertically upwards and remove it from the centrifuge spindle� Make sure not to tilt the rotor
while doing this�
