Interventions and modifications at centrifuges, which have been conducted by persons not authorized by the HETTICH company, are at their own risk and entail the loss off all guarantee and liability claims. In such an event any guarantee claim or liability claim against the HETTICH company expire.
• Motor with speed sensor (speedometer) • Braking chopper (BC) with brake resistor (BR) • Lid locking (LL) • Cooling board (CB), only Rotina 35 R Control panel (CP) The CP is the ”brain” or ”master” of the centrifuge. Via a serial data bus system, the MASTER controls its SLAVE, the component: −...
• 12 V DC and 5 V DC supply for the SB. • 12 V DC supply for the CP. • 12 V DC supply for the CB (only Rotina 35 R). • Plugging station X5 for mains power supply, LL magnet and transmission of the signalling circuit for LL-switch (open/closed over opto-coupler to the CP).
• The CP issues the following via the serial interface: − Speed − Starting and braking levels − Control commands START, BRAKE, STOP • State display by LED´s: In standby mode the green LED is on In running mode the green LED is on In fault mode the green LED flashes If the FC processor detects a fault, it shuts down itself automatically and triggers the...
Imbalance switch • A switch detects any imbalance. • Imbalance can only be detected in running mode (starting, centrifuging and braking). • If any imbalance is detected, the drive is changed over to braking. Interlocking • Opening of the LL is prevented by a latch. The LL can only be opened when the relay on the SB is energized by the CP.
2.11 Offset calibration • Offset calibration is performed in order to equalize the tolerances of the temperature sensor and the electronics. Perform Offset calibration Where/How when replacing: − the temperature sensor calibrate the temperature sensor. − the CP calibrate temperature sensor and read out the old offset values and put them in the new CP.

Description and elimination of errors TACHO - ERROR 01 During centrifugation the speedometer pulses are interrupted. The rotor slows down until it stops. After the rotor stops, there is a DC braking for 30 sec. An MR during slowing-down causes a DC braking for 3 min. After the DC braking, the ”open the lid”...

ROTORCODE 10 An invalid rotor code was read during startup. The centrifuge slows down until the ”open the lid” release occurs. Further cooling until NOMINAL temperature is reached. • Magnetic coding on rotor is defective. • Speedometer system is defective. •...

N < MIN 13 Insufficient speed; the slippage of the motor is too great. The centrifuge regulation can adjust the speed by 5% max (the limit of adjustment). The error is indicated if the ACTUAL speed is lower than the NOMINAL speed minus 5%.

Settings and interrogations Control panel PROG T / °C T / °C T / °C T / °C >RCF< t / min:s IMPULS START STOP PROG The EPROM of the CP must, in all circumstances, correspond to the machine version and the cooling version. Procedure for initialization An initialization must be carried out: •...
• Press → Display: *** OK *** START and then: PARAM - INIT F001 ↑ ↑ machine version Number of initializations • Mains switch is OFF. • Remove both jumpers from slot 3 and slot 4 on coding strip X3 on the CP. Put a jumper on slot zero at the plug on coding strip X3 on the CP.
5.4.1 OFFSET value The OFFSET value is the difference between the actual temperature and the sensor temperature. Example: Actual temperature - Sensor temperature = OFFSET value 25.5 °C 27.0 °C -1.5 °C 5.4.2 Procedure for performing an OFFSET alignment 1. Mains switch is ON →...
Parameter interrogation Requirements: 1. Rotor is stopped. 2. Mains switch is ON. Keep key pressed down until (after about 8 sec) the following appears in the display: 1. SOUND / BELL ON1 or OFF (acoustic signal) Press key. Every time the key is pressed, the display alters as follows: 2.
Checking the motor slippage The centrifuge control can readjust the speed depending on the rotor. The error (N < MIN 13) is displayed if the rotor speed (ACTUAL speed) is lower than the permitted range of control. It is only possible to check the slippage during a centrifugation run. •...
5.10 Imbalance switch-off The permissible imbalance is specified for rotor 1724 by the indication of the difference in weight of opposite rotor positions. When having a difference in weight within the range of 15g to 30g during run-up, the drive has to switch off before reaching 1500 RPM. The imbalance switch-off is adjusted by changing the distance of the imbalance switch.
Assembling and disassembling components Before assembling or disassembling components, the working processes in Tabelle 7-B for ROTINA 35 and ROTINA 35 R must first be carried out to reach the components and make a note of the plug numbers. The components are assembled in reverse order ! The further procedure is described on the following pages.
