NOTE
When using multiwell-plate carriers, enter the appropriate rotor, either SX4750 or SX4750a. The
speed will be automatically limited to 4000 RPM. (The 4000 RPM limit is valid when running up to three
stacked Beckman Coulter plates separated by cap strips. Reduce speed to 2700 RPM if running four
stacked plates).
Set rotor speed using RPM values only. To set speed to a specific RCF, use the RPM-to-RCF conversion
chart (GX-TB-015) to determine the applicable RPM to enter.
