3-3. Removing and Installing a Rotor When the instrument is dispatched from the Gyrozen facility, the Rotor is fixed in the chamber of the instrument. There is a buffer to fix the Rotor in the chamber. Please remove the buffer before running the instrument.
Incorrect loading examples for fixed angle rotor If the density of the whole sample is greater than 1.2 g/ml, the maximum rotational speed should be reduced to avoid rotor failure. Otherwise, unexpected accidents can result from a damaged rotor or centrifuge. www.gyrozen.com Microcentrifuge 1524...
4-1. Key Functions of the Control Panel RPM/RCF RPM/RCF indicates rotating speed. The maximum RPM/RCF of 1524 is 15,000/21,206. TIME Time can be set at „Minute‟ and „Second‟ with the range up to 99 min 59 sec (00:00: continuous). ACC/DEC The acceleration and deceleration rates can be set from 1 to 9 and from 0 to 9, respectively.
