To Next PageTo Next PageWhat to do if my Drucker Diagnostics 642VFD-Plus Laboratory Equipment machine does not unlock after a run?
The lid should remain locked until the rotor almost stops, then unlock for 60 seconds. For more unlock time, press the 'OPEN / STOP' button while plugged in and stopped. If it remains locked, the electronics may be damaged and require professional assistance.
How to set run time on Drucker Diagnostics 642VFD-Plus Laboratory Equipment?
To set the run time on your Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment, check the run preset by following the instructions on page 5. If the preset is not the desired length follow the instruction on page 6 to change the run preset time.
Why does my Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment centrifuge cycle stop prematurely and the yellow LED is blinking?
If the centrifuge cycle stops prematurely and the yellow LED indicator is blinking on your Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment, the internal tachometer has either not sensed a speed, the sensed speed is out of range, or the wrong rotor is installed. Verify that the rotor being used is programmed correctly in the settings. Reprogram the correct rotor selection if necessary. Remove the rotor following the instructions on page 7. Check to see that there is a small silver reflective sticker on the exterior vertical wall of the rotor. If the reflective sticker is present on the rotor and the correct rotor is programmed in the settings, contact Drucker Diagnostics for further assistance.
What does it mean when the yellow and green LED indicators are blinking with 4 short audible beeps on my Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment?
If the yellow and green LED indicators are blinking with 4 short audible beeps on your Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment, this indicates that the lid is not properly latched and the cycle has entered the 'paused' state. Turn the knob clockwise to re-latch the lid and resume the cycle. If the cycle does not resume and the knob is fully turned, contact Drucker Diagnostics for further assistance.
What does it mean when the yellow and red LED indicators are blinking with 3 short audible beeps on my Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment?
If the yellow and red LED indicators are blinking with 3 short audible beeps on your Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment, the electrical current to the motor has exceeded the allowable limit, indicating that the full cycle was not completed. Make sure that nothing has fallen into the rotor chamber preventing the rotor from spinning freely. If there is nothing obstructing the rotor, the motor may be damaged. Contact Drucker Diagnostics for further assistance.
What does it mean when all LED indicators are blinking with 2 short audible beeps repeating continuously on my Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment?
If all LED indicators are blinking with 2 short audible beeps repeating continuously on your Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment, it means the imbalance detection threshold has been reached during the cycle, indicating a full cycle was not completed. Check the balance of the load. If it is determined that the detection is too sensitive this can be adjusted by increasing the imbalance detection threshold. Refer to page 6 for programming settings.
What to do if my Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment machine does not unlock after run?
The lid should remain locked until the rotor has nearly come to a complete stop and then unlock for 60 seconds. If additional unlock time is needed, press the 'OPEN / STOP' button with the machine plugged in and the rotor stopped. If the lid remains locked after this and will not unlock, the electronics may have been damaged. Contact Drucker Diagnostics for assistance. To access the rotor chamber, follow the procedure on page 10, 'Emergency Rotor Chamber Entry'.
What to do if my Drucker Diagnostics 642VFD-Plus rotor does not spin freely?
If the rotor of your Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment does not spin freely, ensure the unit has power and the lid latch is turned completely clockwise to its stop position. The latch makes contact with a switch underneath the front top of the cabinet. If this switch is not activated, the light will not turn on and the machine will not run. Also, check for any obstructions in the rotor chamber. If there are no obstructions, contact Drucker Diagnostics for further assistance.
Why does the rotor on my Drucker Diagnostics 642VFD-Plus not spin freely?
Ensure nothing is obstructing the rotor chamber. If there are no obstructions, further assistance is needed.
What to do if my Drucker Diagnostics Laboratory Equipment centrifuge does not run?
If your centrifuge isn't running, first check the electrical outlet and ensure the lid latch is fully clockwise to its stop position, which should illuminate the latch light. Also, inspect the circuit breaker switch at the bottom left of the machine; if it's white, the breaker has tripped. If these steps don't resolve the issue, further assistance is needed.
