    EN 61010-2-020. • The HERMLE Z 327 K, is "non-explosion proof" and must not be operated in explosion- endangered areas or locations. Centrifugation of flammable, explosive, radioactive, or such substances, which chemically react with high energy, is strictly prohibited. If used in such environment, this is at the users own expense.
  • Page 11: Following Rules Must Strictly Be Adhered To

    Do not run the centrifuge, if mechanical or electrical assembly groups have been tampered with, by unauthorized personnel. • Do not use accessories such as rotors and buckets, that are not approved by HERMLE Labortechnik GmbH, except commercially available centrifuge tubes, made of glass or plastic.

  • Page 20: Operation

    The weight differences between the filled vessels should be kept as low as possible. Therefore, we recommend to weigh with a balance. This reduces the wear of drive and the acoustic operating noise. Each rotor indicates what the maximum capacity is per hole. Z327K_V1.22_eng © Hermle Labortechnik GmbH...
  • Page 21: Loading Swing Out Rotors

    The bolts of the rotor must be greased with the HERMLE rotor grease (Order No. 38-5656). The sample tubes have to be filled evenly, by eye, and set into the drillings or tube adapter. The weight difference of the loaded buckets should not exceed 1.0 g.
