Do not place the centrifuge near areas containing flammable reagents or

Securing the Centrifuge to the Floor

Avanti J-26S series centrifuges are certified to meet the requirements of the European CE mark. To
meet these requirements, the centrifuge must be secured to the floor using the anchoring hardware
shipped with the instrument. This will prevent the centrifuge from moving in the unlikely event of
a rotor mishap.
Complete instructions for installing the anchoring kit are packaged with the hardware, which is
shipped with the centrifuge. The instructions (publication B10122) include a full-size template to be
used as a guide for drilling holes in the floor. Refer to this document for additional installation
instructions.
NOTE
Beckman Coulter representatives are not equipped to drill holes in your floor. The holes must be drilled
before your scheduled installation.
