5.0 Installation

The centrifuge should be installed on a rigid, even surface such as a stable laboratory bench, countertop, etc. To guarantee
sufficient ventilation, ensure that the centrifuge has at least 12 inches (30 cm) of free space on all sides, including the rear. The
centrifuge should not be located in areas subject to excessive heat such as in direct sunlight or near radiators or the exhaust of a
compressor, as a buildup of heat may occur within the chamber.
Before operating the centrifuge, check that the power source (electrical outlet on the wall) corresponds to that on the
manufacturer's rating label, then connect the power cord to the centrifuge and the power source.

6.0 Installation of Rotors and Rotor Maintenance

6.1 Rotor Maintenance

The rotor should be cleaned thoroughly after each use. NOTE: Thorough cleaning must be performed when spinning samples
containing phenol or phenol chloroform. Periodically inspect the rotor for dents, dings, scratches, discoloration, and cracks. If any
damage to the rotor is found, discontinue use of the rotor immediately and replace.

6.2 Removing and Installing the Rotor

The Labnet Prism™ R refrigerated microcentrifuge comes complete with a standard 24-place rotor installed. To remove the rotor for
cleaning, using the rotor wrench remove the rotor securing screw from the motor shaft by turning the screw counterclockwise. Lift
the rotor directly upward in a straight vertical motion.
