    EN 61010-2-020. • The HERMLE OLEUM is "non-explosion proof" and must 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. If used in such environment, this is at the users own expense.
  • Page 10: Following Rules Must Strictly Be Adhered To

    Do not run the centrifuge, if mechanical or electrical assembly groups have been tampered with, by unauthorized personnel. • Do not use accessories such as rotors and buckets, that are not approved by HERMLE Labortechnik GmbH, except commercially available centrifuge tubes, made of glass or plastic.
  • Page 11: Space Requirements

    (The socket for the power cord must be easy to reach, respectively easy to disconnect). Switch on, by using the mains power switch (I). Open the lid, by using the button LID. • Remove the transport securing device of the motor (see Figure 4). Figure 4 © Hermle Labortechnik GmbH OLEUM_V1.19_eng...
