  • Page 5: General Information

    EN 61010-2-020. • The HERMLE SIEVA 3 is non explosion-proof and must therefore not be operated in explosion-endangered areas or locations. Centrifugation of flammable, explosive, radioactive, or such substances, which chemically react with high energy, is strictly prohibited. The final decision on the risks associated with the use of such substances is the responsibility of the user of the centrifuge.
  • Page 6: Description

    GENERAL INFORMATION 1.2 Description The Sieva-3 is a filtration centrifuge with microprocessor control. All parameters are accessible via buttons and selected with the control field. All pre-selected and current values will be shown permanently on the LCD-display. The set parameters remain stored after the centrifugation.

    2. INSTALLATION 2.1 Unpackaging Model Sieva-3 is supplied in a carton on a palett. Remove the strap retainer and lift the carton. Now the centrifuge is standing free on the pallet. Lift the centrifuge on both sides with an appropriate number of helpers and place it on the laboratory table (see Figure 1 ).

    4.000 = 3.360 rpm 2.4.3 Removing of the rotor Hold the basket with one hand and untighten the fixing nut of the basket by turning the hex key counter clockwise. Lift the rotor from the motor mounting. Sieva-3_V1.18_eng © Hermle Labortechnik GmbH...
  • Page 13: Functional Principle Of The Baskets

    INSTALLATION 2.4.4 Functional principle of the baskets The baskets of Sieva-3 are available in two versions. As a perforated and a non-perforated basket. The perforated basket 221.07 V02 is used for the filtration method. Therefore, a filter with desired pore size is placed into the inner wall of the basket. Due to the centrifugal force, small particles of the solution remain suspended in the filter and the filtered liquid is pressed through the holes of the basket (see Figure 4).
