a. Maximum speeds are based on a solution density of 1.2 g/mL. At upper temperature and humidity ambient conditions, swinging bucket rotor
speed may require reduction.
b. Relative Centrifugal Field (RCF) is the ratio of the centrifugal acceleration at a specified radius and speed (rω
gravity (g) according to the following formula: RCF = rω
(2 π RPM/60), and g is the standard acceleration of gravity (9807 mm/s
