    How to fix oil visibly collecting in Beckman Coulter Airfuge Laboratory Equipment?
    • C
      Christopher MckaySep 9, 2025
      If you notice oil visibly collecting in your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment, the filter element is likely saturated and needs to be replaced.

    Why does Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment rotor run erratically?
    • P
      pgillAug 23, 2025
      If your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment rotor runs erratically or makes unusual noises, the stator pad may be damaged and needs replacement. Other potential causes include dirty air jets (clean the stator assembly), a missing or damaged rotor cap (check the rotor cap), or an improperly loaded rotor (check placement of tubes or liner in rotor).

    What to do if Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment rotor fails to stop?
    • M
      Michael AguilarAug 25, 2025
      If the rotor fails to stop in your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment, the brake pin shaft may be oily, so clean the pin and shaft. Also, the levitation air flow might be too high, so adjust the levitation air. Finally, the brake spring tension could be too low, so adjust the brake spring tension.

    Why does Beckman Coulter Airfuge rotor stop too fast?
    • S
      Sheryl SandersAug 27, 2025
      If the rotor stops too fast on your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment, adjust the levitation air, as the levitation air flow may be too low. Also, check the time-delay setting because the time-delay period may be too short. Other possible causes include a worn or damaged stator pad (replace the stator pad), an oily brake pin shaft (clean the stator assembly and shaft), or a brake malfunction (adjust brake spring tension and levitation air).

    What to do if brake pin not actuating in Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment?
    • T
      Tamara AdamsSep 18, 2025
      If the brake pin isn't actuating on your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment, the brake spring tension may be too low, requiring adjustment. Also, the stator shaft might be oily, so clean the stator shaft and pin. If the brake pin is damaged, it will need to be replaced.

    Why does the brake pin fall flat on the stator surface of my Beckman Coulter Airfuge Laboratory Equipment?
    • B
      bphillipsSep 22, 2025
      If the brake pin is falling flat on the stator surface in your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment, it could be because the brake spring wire isn't centered, needing adjustment. Alternatively, the brake spring tension might be too low, which also requires adjustment.

    Why does my Beckman Coulter Airfuge Laboratory Equipment rotor run erratically or make noise?
    • L
      Lauren FloresSep 8, 2025
      Erratic rotor behavior or unusual noises in your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment can stem from several issues. A damaged stator pad could be the culprit, requiring replacement. Dirty air jets can also cause this problem, so cleaning the stator assembly is advised. Check for a missing or damaged rotor cap. Also, verify that the tubes or liner are correctly placed in the rotor.

    What to do if run light fails to come on in Beckman Coulter Airfuge?
    • N
      Nicole WilliamsSep 4, 2025
      If the run light fails to come on in your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment, replace the lamp if it's burned out, or reset the circuit breaker if it has tripped. For a faulty time delay, call Beckman Coulter Field Service.
