FAQ's of Compact Laboratory Centrifuge:
Q: How do I operate the compact laboratory centrifuge?
A: To operate the centrifuge, ensure the unit is on a stable surface and connected to a 220 V AC power supply. Insert up to 8 tubes (15 ml each) into the angle head rotor, close the lid securely to activate the interlock safety feature, set your desired speed using the manual control, and monitor progress on the analog display.
Q: What types of samples can be separated with this centrifuge?
A: This centrifuge is suitable for the separation of various fluids, gases, or liquids typically required in laboratory tests, including blood, cell suspensions, or chemical solutions, making it useful for research, diagnostics, and routine laboratory workflows.
Q: When should I use the maximum speed or RCF settings?
A: The maximum speed (up to 3500 RPM) and RCF (1350 x g) are generally used when rapid and efficient separation is necessary. Refer to your laboratory protocol to determine the optimal speed and time for different sample types to ensure best results.
Q: Where can the centrifuge be installed for optimal performance?
A: Place the centrifuge on a stable, flat surface in an environment with ambient temperatures between 5C and 40C and humidity below 80%. Ensure enough clearance around the machine for ventilation and easy access.
Q: What is the process for maintaining the centrifuge?
A: Regularly clean the rotor and interior with a mild detergent and wipe the powder-coated exterior. Always perform maintenance with the device powered off and unplugged. Inspect the fuse periodically and replace it as necessary. Consult the user manual for detailed upkeep instructions.
Q: How does the lid interlock safety system benefit users?
A: The lid interlock safety prevents the centrifuge from operating with the lid open, minimizing risk of injury or sample spillage during use. This feature ensures laboratory staff can operate the equipment confidently and securely.
