Operation

Unloading the Centrifuge

Press STOP to initiate deceleration.

• The light on the

STOP key flashes until the rotor comes to a stop.

After the rotor stops spinning, step on the foot pedal to open the door.

NOTE

During runs at very cold temperatures, nominally –10°C or below, ice may form around the door

opening, causing the door to stick shut. If this happens, press firmly on the door in several locations

around the door opening and depress the foot pedal again.

To minimize icing, remove moisture from inside the chamber, from the chamber gasket, and from the

inner door surface before each run by wiping these surfaces with a clean cloth. Also, keep the door

closed as much as possible.

Unloading the Centrifuge

At the end of a run, unload the rotor following the instructions in the applicable rotor manual.

CAUTION

If disassembly reveals evidence of leakage, you should assume that some fluid

escaped the rotor. apply appropriate decontamination procedures to the

centrifuge and accessories as required.
