Before use
Centrifuge transport and installation
After opening the box remove the protective materi-
als.
When transporting the centrifuge,
consider its weight (see „Technical
Data“); always grab it on both sides
taking care that enough helpers are
around.
Do not lift on the front panel!
The centrifuge can be damaged by
jolting during the transport!
Transport the centrifuge only in the
upright position using proper con-
tainment and secure it properly.
Handle the centrifuge carefully.
Proper location
The centrifuge may only be used indoors. Its location
must meet the following criteria:
• A safety zone of at least 30 cm (12 inches)
around the centrifuge must be maintained. Haz-
ardous materials must not be stored beside unit
while centrifugation.
• The laboratory bench or centrifuge trolley must be
stable and resonance-free. A good support is pro-
vided by a laboratory bench or a centrifuge cart
with lockable casters.
• To ensure sufficient air circulation, a minimum
distance from the wall of 10 cm (4 inches) at the
back and of 15 cm (6 inches) on each side must
be kept.
