Operation NOTICE Damage to the device due to highly corrosive substances. Highly corrosive substances may impair the mechanical strength of rotors, buckets and accessories. − Do not centrifuge highly corrosive substances. Standard glass centrifuge tubes can be loaded up to RCF 4000 (DIN 58970 part 2).
Operation Empty buckets can be loaded with compensating inserts if there are insufficient blood bag systems available to load the rotor fully. If necessary, fine-tune with the tare weights supplied. Loading the angle rotors Personnel: ■ Trained user Check that the rotor is firmly seated. The centrifuge tubes must be distributed evenly over all locations on the rotor.
Operation Biosafety systems must only be stored with the lid open to avoid damage to the sealing rings during storage. 6.6.2 Lid with spring-type lock Fig. 29: Biosafety system Closing Put on the lid. Fold down both clamping brackets until they are under the lugs of the bucket.

Operation Hold the blood bag by the connectors (1) and push the support plate (2) on the outer side of the blood bag into the insert from top to bottom. Ensure that the lower edge of the support plate stands on the floor as completely as possible.
Operation Place the connections over the support plate so that the valves cannot break. Ensure that the hoses do not project out of the insert. Stow hose sections projecting over the edge of the insert between the folded-down support plate and the insert wall. If necessary, balance weights should be placed between the folded- down support plate and the receptacle wall.
