Maximum Loading
The rotor can run at high speeds. Each rotor is specifically designed to run at its maximum speed with a defined load. For further details please refer to the rotor manual supplied with the rotor. The safety system of the centrifuge requires that you do not overload the rotor. The rotors are designed to work with solution with a density of up to 1.2 g/ml. Above this density or if total load is above the maximum weight the following steps should be taken: · Reduce the fill level. · Reduce the speed.
52 | Small Benchtop Rotors
Thermo Scientific
Use the table or the formula:
Maximum Loading | Chapter 3
nadm = admissible speed nmax = maximum speed
Explanation of RCF-Value
The relative centrifugal force (RCF) is given as a multiple of the force of gravity g. It is a unit less numerical value which is used to compare the separation or sedimentation capacity of various centrifuges, since it is independent of the type of device. Only the centrifuging radius and the speed are used for calculation:
RCF = 11.18 x
x r
r = centrifuging radius in cm
n = rotational speed in rpm
The maximum RCF value is related to the maximum radius of the tube opening.
Remember that this value is reduced depending on the tubes and adapters used.
This can be accounted for in the calculation above if required.
Once the rotor has been properly installed, the main switch turned on and the centrifuge door closed, you may start centrifuging.
Use of Tubes and Consumables
Care should be taken to ensure that the tubes and bottles used in the centrifuge are: · Rated to or above the selected rcf to be spun at · They are being used at or above their minimum fill volume · They are not being used above their design life (age or number of runs) · They are inspected for damage Please refer to manufacturers data sheets for further information.
Rotor Life Time
WARNING
Replace the rotor when the specified number of cycles is reached. Due to the mechanical load a rotor can break and damage the centrifuge. Replace the rotor and buckets when the specified number of cycles is reached.
The lifetime of rotors and buckets is dependent on the amount of mechanical load. Do not exceed them number of cycles recommended for rotors and buckets. The maximum number of cycles is given in the rotor table in the rotor specification section. The maximum number of cycles for buckets is marked on the buckets themselves.
Service Life Examples
Usage profile Frequent use 20 runs / day 220 days / year
Maximum service life at 50,000 cycles 7 years

Aerosol-tight Applications
Basic Principles
CAUTION
Biological seals are part of bio-containment systems as specified in international and national bio-safety guidelines and cannot relied on as the only means of safeguarding workers and the environment when handling pathogenic micro-organisms. Mind the "Laboratory Biosafety Manual" of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the regulations in your country.
CAUTION
When centrifuging hazardous samples, do not open aerosol-tight rotors or buckets unless placed in a safety cabinet. Always bear in mind the maximum permitted fill levels.
WARNING
Be sure to check all seals before starting any aerosol-tight applications.
Check that the sample containers are well suited for the desired centrifugation process.
Placing O-Ring
The O-ring fulfills its purpose best, when it is neither stressed nor bulked. Meaning the O-ring should be equally placed in the groove of the lid. Place the O-ring as follows: 1. Place the O-ring above the groove. 2. Push the O-ring on two opposite places into the groove. Make sure the rest of the O-ring is equally distributed. 3. Push the centers of the loose parts into the groove. 4. Push the remaining O-ring into place.
NOTE
If the O-ring seems to be too long or too short, take it off the lid and repeat the process.
Thermo Scientific
Small Benchtop Rotors | 55
Chapter 4 | Fill Level
Fill Level
The tubes are only to be filled to a level which ensures that the sample is unable to reach the top of the tube during centrifugation. Therefore, fill the tube only 2/3 of the rated level.
Checking the Aerosol-Tightness
The aerosol tightness testing of the rotors and buckets took place according to the microbiological test process in accordance with the EN 61010-2-020 Appendix AA. Whether or not a rotor is aerosol-tight depends primarily on proper handling. Check as needed to make sure your rotor is aerosol-tight. The careful inspection of the seals and seal surfaces for signs of wear and damage such as cracks, scratches and embrittlement are extremely important. Aerosol-tight applications are not possible if the bucket tops are open. Aerosol-tightness requires the correct operation when filling the sample vessels and closing the rotor lid.
Quick Test
As a quick test, it is possible to test the aerosol-tight beaker and fixed-angle rotors using the following process: 1. Lubricate all seals lightly.
Always use the special grease (part no. 76003500) when lubricating the seals. 2. Fill the bucket or the rotor with approx. 10 ml of carbonated mineral water. 3. Close the bucket or the rotor as explained in the handling instructions. 4. Shake the bucket or the rotor vigorously using your hands.
This releases the carbonic acid gas which is bound in the water, resulting in excess pressure. Do not apply pressure to the lid when doing so! Leaks can be detected by escaping water or the sound of escaping gas. Replace the seals if you detect any leaks. Then repeat the test. 5. Dry the bucket, rotor, rotor cover and the cover seal.
CAUTION
Prior to each use, the seals in the rotor are to be inspected in order to assure that they are correctly seated and are not worn or damaged. Damaged seals are to be replaced immediately. Replacement seals are supplied with the rotors and can also be re-ordered as a spare part set. When loading the rotor, ensure that the rotor lid closes securely. Damaged or clouded rotor covers are to be replaced immediately.

Checking the Aerosol-Tightness | Chapter 4
Aerosol-tight Closure with ClickSeal
1. If necessary, grease the lid joint before closing the lid. Use grease (76003500) for this. 2. Raise the latch.
The cap can now be easily placed on the bucket.
3. Lower the latch to close the bucket aerosol-tight; be sure the latch clicks into place.
CAUTION
If the latch is not flipped down, the caps could be damaged during centrifuging. If the latch has not clicked into place, the bucket is not aerosol-tight. Never raise the bucket at its latch.

Key
S Satisfactory. M Moderate attack, may be satisfactory for use in centrifuge depending on length of exposure, speed involved, etc.;
suggest testing under actual conditions of use. U Unsatisfactory, not recommended. / Performance unknown; suggest testing, using sample to avoid loss of valuable material.
NOTICE
Chemical resistance data is included only as a guide to product use. Because no organized chemical compatibility data exists for materials under the stress of centrifugation, when in doubt we recommend pretesting sample lots.
