Overloading Of Rotors; Removing The Rotors; Operation; Power Switch - Hermle Z 206 A Instruction Manual

2.1.3 Overloading of rotors

The maximum load permitted for a rotor, which is determined by the manufacturer, as well as
the maximum speed allowed for this rotor (see label on rotor), must not be exceeded.
The liquids the rotors are loaded with, should have an average homogeneous density of 1,2 g/ml or
less when the rotor is running at maximum speed.
In order to spin liquids with a higher density, the speed has to be reduced according to the
following formula:
Reduced speed n
Example:
In case of any questions, please contact the manufacturer.
2.1.4 Removing the rotor
Untighten the rotor fixing screw and lift the rotor vertically out of the centrifuge.
ATTENTION:
Do not operate the centrifuge with rotors or buckets which show any signs of corrosion
or mechanical damage.
Do not operate with extremely corrosive substances which could damage the rotor and buckets.
