Loading The Rotor - Hettich EBA 280 Operating Manual

Loading the rotor

Standard centrifuge containers of glass will not stand RCF values exceeding 4000 (DIN 58970, pg. 2).

Hold the rotor firmly at the left and right and pull up lightly to check whether it has properly engaged on the motor
shaft.

With swing-out rotors all rotor positions must be lined with identical hangers.

The rotors and hangers may only be loaded symmetrically. The centrifuge containers have to be distributed
evenly on all rotor positions. For authorised combinations see Chapter "Anhang/Appendix, Rotoren und
Zubehör/Rotors and accessories".
In the case of angle rotors all possible rotor positions must be loaded, see chapter "Anhang/Appendix, Rotoren
und Zubehör/Rotors and accessories".
Rotor is evenly loaded

In containers with rubber inserts, the same number of rubber inserts must always be among the centrifuge
containers.

The centrifuge containers may only be filled outside of the centrifuge.

The maximum filling quantity for the centrifuge containers specified by the manufacturer must not be exceeded.
In the case of angle rotors, the centrifuging
vessels may only be filled so far that no fluid
can be expelled from them while the centrifuge
is running.

When loading the angle rotors, no liquid may get into the angle rotors or centrifuging chamber.

When loading the hangers and swing-out rotors and when swivelling out the hangers while the centrifuge is
running, no liquid may enter the hangers or the centrifuging chamber.

In order to maintain the weight differences within the centrifuge container as marginal as possible, a consistent
fill level in the containers is to be heeded.

The weight of the permissible filling quantity is specified on each rotor. This weight may not be exceeded.
