An overtemp (over temperature) system provides flexibility, sample
protection, and safety for the user.
• The user sets the run temperature, then sets a maximum tempera-
ture or accepts the default maximum temperature which is 4°C
over the set temperature.
• The user specifies whether the run should shut down or continue if
the overtemp setting is reached.
• The system will always shut down using maximum brake if the
temperature goes above 45°C.
The name rating plate is affixed to the rear of the centrifuge. Always
mention the model number and serial number when corresponding
with Beckman Coulter regarding your centrifuge.
The power switch and the key switch are located below the control
panel (see Figure 2-1).
