WARNING
Risk of injury from contaminated sample material.
Contaminated sample material escapes from the sample
tube during centrifugation.
− Use centrifuge tubes with special screw caps for haz-
ardous substances.
−
For risk group 3 and 4 materials, use a biosafety system
in addition to the sealable centrifuge tubes (see WHO's
'Laboratory Biosafety Manual').
NOTICE
Damage to the device due to highly corrosive substances.
Highly corrosive substances may impair the mechanical
strength of rotors, buckets and accessories.
− Do not centrifuge highly corrosive substances.
Standard glass centrifuge tubes can be loaded up to RCF
4000 (DIN 58970 part 2).
Personnel:
■ Trained user
Fill centrifuge tubes outside the centrifuge.
The maximum capacity of the centrifuge tubes specied by the manu-
facturer must not be exceeded.
With angle rotors, the centrifuge tubes must only be lled to the
extent that no liquid can be ejected from the tubes during the centrifu-
gation run.
It must be ensured that there is a uniform ll level in the tubes in
order to keep the weight differences in the centrifuge tubes as low as
possible.
