5.9.3 Temperature monitoring
Once the set temperature has been reached, the centrifuge reacts to temperature deviations during
centrifugation as follows:
The temperature can be changed during centrifugation.
5.9.4 Temperature control run FastTemp
Reasons for a temperature control run
• Rotor chamber, rotor and adapter should reach the set temperature quickly.
• To perform a run with the exact temperature, start a short temperature control run immediately before
centrifugation. This prevents exceeding the temperature in the rotor chamber, e.g. following a long
service life.
• If the centrifuge has been used with continuous cooling over a longer period of time or with continuous
cooling at lower temperatures, start a brief temperature control run before inserting the samples. The
temperature control run prevents the samples from freezing.
5.9.4.1 Starting a temperature control run
Prerequisites
With the FastTemp function, you can start a temperature control run immediately without samples, at
rotor-specific or temperature-specific speeds. This will quickly bring the rotor chamber, including rotor and
adapter, up to the set temperature.
Prerequisites
• The centrifuge is switched on.
• Rotor, rotor lid and adapter have been mounted correctly.
• The centrifuge lid is closed.
1. Set the speed of centrifugation for the subsequent run.
2. Use the arrow keys to set the set temperature.
3. Press the fast temp key.
Temperature display if the rotor stops: The display switches between the set temperature
(long) and the actual temperature (short).
Temperature display during centrifugation: Actual temperature
Deviation from the set temperature > ±3 °C Temperature display flashes
Deviation from the set temperature > ±5 °C The display shows Er 18. Centrifugation is stopped
automatically.
