Operation

Stopping the centrifuge

Stopping with preset time

Normally the run time has been preselected, and all
you have to do is wait until the centrifuge terminates
the run automatically at the end of the preset time.
As soon as the speed is down to zero, the display
reads "End". You can now open the centrifuge by
pressing the "open lid" key
ples.
You can manually stop the centrifuge at any time by
pressing the "stop" key
At this point the remaining run time is displayed.

Stopping with continuous operation

If you have chosen continuous operation, you must
stop the centrifuge manually. Press the "stop" key
in the control panel. The centrifuge starts braking with
the preset braking profile. The display reads "End",
and you can open the lid by pressing the "open lid" key
and remove your samples.

Short-time centrifugation

For short-term operation, the Biofuge primo is
equipped with a "quick run" function.
Short-term centrifugation is started by pressing the
"quick run" key continuously; it stops as soon as the
key is released.
In this mode the centrifuge accelerates with full power
up to the maximum speed. The preset speed or RCF is
ignored in this case.
Depending on the rotor, the centrifuge
accelerates to the maximum speed!
Check carefully whether you have to
maintain a specific speed for your
application.
During acceleration the time is counted forward in sec-
onds. The display remains until the centrifuge lid is
opened.
