14 Warranty
Mini has been subjected to thorough testing and quality control. In the unlikely event of a
manufacturing fault, our one year warranty (from the date of delivery) covers the instrument,
accessories and individual components. This warranty becomes invalid in the case of incorrect
operation, use of nonstandard spare parts or accessories and unauthorized modification of the
rotor or instrument.
LaboGene reserves the right to make technical modifications. Please see the complete limited
warranty statement supplied separately.
15 Appendix - Allowable maximum speed
The maximum allowable speed needs to be reduced when centrifuging a solution with a density
greater than 1.2 g/ml. Failure to reduce the speed may result in damage to the rotor and
centrifuge. The revised maximum speed can be calculated with the following formula.
Example:
Where the density of the liquid is 1,9, the new allowable maximum speed would be calculated as
follows:
16 Appendix - RPM to RCF conversion
RPM can be converted in RCF with the following calculation.
RCF = 11.2 × r (RPM/1000)
2
or RCF = 1.12 × 10
-5
x r x (RPM)
2
Example:
Where the RPM is 12,000 RPM and radius of rotor is 6 cm, Rcf would be calculated as follows:
RCF = 1.12 × 10
-5
× (6) × (12,000)
2
= 9,651 x g
