What to do for imbalance error on Beckman Coulter Allegra X-14?
- L
  Laura LeeAug 21, 2025
  If you receive an imbalance error on your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment, there are several potential causes: * The rotor load might be severely out of balance. Ensure that tubes or bottles are balanced and loaded symmetrically in the rotor as described in the applicable rotor manual. * The rotor tie-down might not be properly fastened. Make sure the rotor lid is properly aligned and the tie-down T-bar is securely fastened. * The centrifuge might be misaligned (tilted). Level the centrifuge on the bench or table. * The centrifuge might have been moved during operation. After the rotor comes to a complete stop, open and close the centrifuge door, then restart.

  If the door of your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment will not open, there could be a few reasons. First, the rotor may still be spinning, so wait until it stops. Second, the power may not be on, so ensure the power cord is plugged in and the power is turned on. Finally, there may be a source power failure; in this case, consult the section on retrieving your sample in case of power failure.

Why rotor cannot achieve set speed on Beckman Coulter Allegra X-14?
- N
  Nancy SmithAug 28, 2025
  If the rotor on your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment cannot achieve the set speed, it could be due to several reasons. The line voltage may be below the rating, in which case you should have a qualified service person measure the line voltage while the instrument is operating. There could be an electrical failure; ensure the power cord is securely connected, and contact Beckman Coulter Field Service if needed. Alternatively, there could be a motor failure, requiring you to contact Beckman Coulter Field Service.
