2.4 INSTALLING THE CENTRIFUGE

The centrifuge should only be operated indoors. Place the centrifuge on a stable, solid,
horizontal and clean surface, without vibrations. Make sure that the centrifuge is not exposed to
direct sunlight. To ensure sufficient ventilation, there should be enough clearance on all sides of
the centrifuge. It must be far enough away from the wall and other devices. According to
recommendations of the EN 61010-2-020 standard, a safety clearance of 30 cm should be
observed around the centrifuge during operation. Please remove all objects from this area.
If the centrifuge isn't levelled, imbalances can occur and the centrifuge can be damaged. Do not
place anything under the centrifuge feet to level the centrifuge.
After installation you have to wait for at least four hours, before connecting the
centrifuge to the mains power supply. This prevents possible damage to the
compressor, which may result from improper transport.
This also prevents damage to electronic components due to condensation, which can
occur, when you bring the device from a cold environment to a warm environment.
Before connecting the centrifuge to the mains power supply, check that the mains voltage and
frequency correspond to the specifications on the name label of the centrifuge. The mains cable
of the centrifuge may only be connected to a properly grounded wall socket.
To disconnect the mains supply from the centrifuge in the event of malfunction, an emergency
switch separate from the centrifuge must be available. This switch should be outside the room,
where the centrifuge is installed, or next to the entrance to the room.
