In case of emergency, mains disconnection with an emergency switch must be installed, The SC 2700 device is a non-cooled centrifuge which can be operated with mains voltages of 100 - 230 V using if possible outside of the room.
Permissible mains voltage / max. power consumption / mains frequency 30 cm of the centrifuge during centrifuging. • The SC 2700 centrifuge is not explosion-protected and therefore must not be operated in rooms or areas Electrical power consumption where there is an explosion hazard. Centrifuging of flammable, explosive, radioactive substances, or chemicals which react violently with each other is prohibited. The final decision regarding the risks Read the instruction manual before putting the device into operation associated with the use of such substances is the responsibility of the user of the centrifuge.

Instruction Manual SC 2700 Centrifuge Instruction Manual SC 2700 Centrifuge Operation 2.1.2 Loading the rotor Inserting and loading the rotors The rotor must only be loaded symmetrically (see Figure 10 and 11). The sleeves must only be used with the vessels for which they are intended. Weight differences between the filled sample vessels must be kept small.
Instruction Manual SC 2700 Centrifuge Instruction Manual SC 2700 Centrifuge Mains switch “Blood” program The mains switch is located on the rear side of the centrifuge (see Figure 12). The program for centrifuging blood samples is accessed by pressing the “blood” key (4). The text “program 01” (M7) is shown in the display field “time” (A-2). The parameters for the RCF value and the time are fixed and...
Instruction Manual SC 2700 Centrifuge Instruction Manual SC 2700 Centrifuge 2.6.1 Pre-selection of the RCF value or speed This pre-selection is activated with the “rpm/rcf” key (2). When this key is pressed once, the text “rcf” (M6) flashes. Pre-selection of the speed can be selected be pressing the key again. The flashing text “rpm” (M5) is displayed. The required value can then be set with the “up” (7) and “down” (7) keys. The set value is displayed permanently in the display field (A-1) before, during and after the run.
Instruction Manual SC 2700 Centrifuge Instruction Manual SC 2700 Centrifuge Maintenance Imbalance If the rotor is unevenly loaded the drive is switched off during the acceleration phase (starting). The rotor brakes Care and maintenance to a stop. 3.1.1 General If the word “error” (M8) and the error number “01” are displayed in the “time” field (A-2), the weight difference Care: between the two samples is too large. -> Balance the samples precisely. Care of the centrifuge is essentially limited to cleaning the accessible surfaces of the Load the rotor as described in point 2.1.2 and 2.1.3.
