The RC12BP™ has the following safety features: a protective armor
plate steel guard within the cabinet; automatic shutoff of the drive
motor for overspeed protection; circuit breakers on the main power
and the control panel circuits; and a door interlock which prevents
starting the drive while the chamber door is open, or opening the door
while the rotor is in motion.

Specific RC12BP™ features include:
• An optional Network Computer Interface Package, which in-
cludes WatchLog Network™ software, allows automatic com-
puterized logging of centrifuge QC RUN and production run data
via RS485/RS232 communication hardware.
• QC RUN feature allows simple, automatic speed/temperature
verification (optional Computer Interface Package required to
record and print run data).
