Speed in revolutions per minute (rpm) is related to angular velocity, ω, according to the following:
*
Where = rad/s. All further references in this manual to speed will be designated as rpm.

The centrifuge will operate at ambient temperatures up to 40°C, but refrigeration system perfor-
mance may be less than optimal above 25°C.
After the centrifuge system has reached equilibrium. Ambient air temperature at the centrifuge air
inlets must be between 2°C to 40°C with maximum relative humidity of 80% at 31°C, linearly de-
creasing to 50% at 40°C. If the ambient air temperature is above 25°C, the centrifuge may not main-
tain low temperatures at high speeds, therefore, avoid areas near heat sources (for example, direct
sunlight, heating pipes and radiators). Also, avoid close grouping of centrifuges or other heat-pro-
ducing laboratory equipment.
