3. Installation
3.1 Packing Inspection
3.2 Installation
▶ You can get contact details on the packing box or manual.
• Check packing conditions carefully, before unpacking.
• Contact Hanil Scienti󽗉c Inc. immediately if damages found.
• Check the delivery for completeness.
Installation on hard and 󽗊at ground.
• Centrifuge should be installed on a hard and 󽗊at place.
• If the centrifuge is installed in an inclined place, the shaft may be bent
due to the weight of the rotor.
Good ventailation.
• For air circulation and safety, maintain a 30cm“clearance envelope”
around the centrifuge while the rotor is spinning.
Constant temperature/humidity
• Centrifuge equipped with the sensitive electronic software which is
fragile with humidity and temperature.
• Must avoid direct ray or heater and be put in the ambience of controlled
temp.and air.
Avoid the corrosive gas
• Install the centrifuge in a place where corrosive gas is not generated.
• Sulfur dioxide gas and chlorine gas may cause corrosion.
Leveling
• The shaft should be put exactly vertical on the hotizontaliy 󽗊at ground by
the leveling tool.

3.5 Installing/Removing the Rotor
•Since this product is equipped with a rotor, no additional installation work is
required.
•Use only rotors produced by Hanil Scientific Inc.
•Do not use rotors that are corroded or have mechanical defects.
•Be sure to install the rotor lead before use.
When removing or replacing the rotor, follow the procedure below.
1. Before installing the rotor, remove any foreign matter and moisture from inside the
chamber, motor shaft and rotor.
▶ When installing the rotor, the temperature of the rotor and motor shaft should be at room
temperature (10~30℃).
2. Insert the rotor you want to fit into the motor shaft.
3. Hold the rotor with one hand and turn it clockwise using the rotor locking tool with the
other hand to tighten it completely.
▶ Rotor tightening: Rotating with a Rotor Locking Tool and rotating clockwise
▶ Rotor Separation: Rotating with a Rotor Locking Tool and rotating counterclockwise
4. Locking Rotor's Lid
▶Check if the sealing is properly positioned in the groove
▶Place the rotor lid vertically on the rotor.
▶Turn the rotor cap screw clockwise until it clicks.
When the "click" sound is heard, the rotor Lid is locked properly.
