Initial operation

•
According to the laboratory instrument standards EN / IEC 61010-2-020 an emergency switch to separate power
supply in the event of a failure must be installed in the building electrical system.
This switch has to be placed remote from the centrifuge, preferred outside of the room in which the centrifuge is
installed or near by the exit of this room.
•
Position the centrifuge in a stable and level manner in a suitable place. During set-up, the required safety
margin of 300 mm around the centrifuge is to be kept according to EN / IEC 61010-2-020.
When the centrifuge is running, according to EN / IEC 61010-2-020, no persons, dangerous
substances or objects may be within the safety margin of 300 mm around the centrifuge.
•
Do not place any object in front of the ventiduct.
Keep a ventilation area of 300 mm around the ventiduct.
•
In the ROTANTA 460 RC centrifuge, the brakes on the castors are pressed down to block the castors. See
attached information sheet, AH5670XX.
•
In the ROTANTA 460 RF centrifuge, the machine feet are turned downwards to relieve the castors. See attached
information sheet, AH5670XX.
•
In the case of the centrifuge, type 5660-20, 5660-70, connect the nitrogen supply according to the enclosed
instruction sheet AH5660-20XX.
It is mandatory that the centrifuge be connected according to the enclosed instruction sheet.
Make sure you observe the enclosed instruction sheet.
•
Centrifuge with PE connector:
If required, connect the PE connector at the back of the device with an additional medical potential equalization
system.
•
Centrifuge with RS232 interface:
Connect the RS232 centrifuge interface with an RS232 connecting cable (not included in the scope of delivery) to
the PC.
•
Check whether the mains voltage tallies with the statement on the type plate.
•
Connect the centrifuge with the connection cable to a standard mains socket. For connection ratings refer to
Chapter "Technical specifications".
•
Switch on the mains switch (switch position "Ι"). The LEDs in the keys are blinking.
The following displays appear one after the other:
1. The centrifuge model
2. The program version
3. The rotorcode (rotor), the maximum rotor speed (Nmax) and the preset centrifuging radius (R) of the last rotor
that was recognized by rotor recognition.
4. OPEN OEFFNEN
•
Open the lid.
The centrifuge data of the last used program or program 1 will be displayed.
•
Remove the transport safety device (see instruction sheet on "Moving the equipment safely").
