Diagnostic Indicators Safety Device
Protection of Rotor Chamber
The rotor chamber allows the rotor to rotate at high speeds. A steel protector is provided around the
chamber for the operator's safety in case of any rotor mishap during centrifugation.
Imbalance Detector
This centrifuge is equipped with a sensor that detects severe vibration of the rotor due to improper
bucket setting or excessive imbalance, and decelerates the rotor. If an imbalance is detected, the run will
be terminated and IMBALANCE will be displayed.
Door Lock
For safety reasons, the door is automatically locked while the rotor is rotating. The locked state is held
even if the instrument power is turned off. The door can be opened/closed only when the rotor stops.
