Thermo Scientific Sorvall BP 8 / 16 and Sorvall BIOS 16 Centrifuges and Heavy Duty Centrifuges
Intended Use for Sorvall BP 8 / 16 and
Sorvall BP 8 / 16 Heavy Duty

Medical

This centrifuge is intended for separation of blood into blood components using blood bags. The blood components are
intended to be used for human blood transfusion.
Clinical facilities and institutions are responsible for the process of human blood transfusion.
This intended use is limited to the associated rotors and components. Based on the above this centrifuge is a medical device
per European Directive 93/42/EEC. CE marked with Notified Body involvement.

In Vitro Diagnostics

This centrifuge system is intended for separation of blood into cell-free supernatant (plasma, serum) and cell-containing
sediment. Plasma and serum are intended to be used in In-Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) applications (assays).
Blood is used in numerous diagnostic tests such as hematological screening (e.g. measurement of free hemoglobulin),
immunological screening (e.g. measurement of thrombocytes levels) and cardiovascular system assessment.
Self declared, CE marked without Notified Body involvement.
Intended User
The centrifuge must be operated by trained personal only.
Trained personnel can be a clinical laboratory technologist, a medical laboratory technician or personal with similar education.
