6.2.2.3 Installation of accessories
• Only use vessels that are suitable for the rotor.
• In the case of swing-out rotors, all of the compartments must be
equipped with buckets.
• Always load opposite compartments of the rotors with the same
accessories and fill to avoid imbalance.
Centrifugation with vessels of various sizes
Working with vessel of various sizes is possible. In this case, however, it is
very important that the rotationally symmetrical inserts are identical.
