1. Safety Precautions
1.1 Safety requirements
Centrifuge involveselements of risk all the time as it utilizes a high speed body of rotation. Follow precautions and all the safety
Follow precautions and all the safety requirements described on this user manualto prevent any damage and failureof equipment
and loss of lives.
1.Centrifugeshould beplacedon flatplace to maintainlevel.Bigvibrationis caused by operation of equipment in thecondition

2. Installation Directions
2.1 Packing Inspection
·Check packing conditions very carefully after arrival of centrifuge.
·Contact Hanil Science Industrial Co Ltd immediately if damages found .
· You can get contact details on packing boxes and outer cover of manual.
2.2 Installation directions
· Installation on hard and flat ground : Centrifuge should be installed on hard and flat
ground. In case centrifuge is located on incline place, spindle can be bent due to
heavy weight of rotor as centrifuge is rotating in condition of spindle inclined for long
period of time.
· Smooth air circulation : Centrifuge should be located in leaving 30cm of room from
both sides and the back for smooth air circulation. Especially, air circulation is not going smoothly
if air vent on the case is covered with cloth or blocked by other equipment.
Avoid dusty place to install centrifuge.
· Constant temperature and humidity : Centrifuge is influenced by external environment
such as temperature or humidity as it is controlled by a high degree of electromagnetic
controller. Do not install centrifuge close to direct light or heater.
Keep centrifuge in proper temperature and humidity.
· Place unable to produce corrosivegas : Install centrifugeon the place unable to produce
corrosivegas. Rotor and spindle can be corrosiveand metal parts can be damaged if
centrifuge contacts pyrosulfuricgas and chloric gas.
· Balancing : Centrifuge should be leveling for spindle of equipment to be vertical to the
ground. Balance a centrifuge by using a water level if required.

2.3 Rotor
·Rotor, tube rack(adapter), tube and adapter set recommended by manufacturer
should be used.
· Do not use rotor and bucket with a visible corrosion or mechanical fault.
·Waring! In danger of injury due to asymmetric installation of a rotor.
·Make sure a rotor is tightened up before start.
·Make sure a lid of rotor is tightened up before start.
·Make sure of tubes arrangement before start
- Same tube buckets and plates should be placed on a rotor symmetrically.
- Make sure of use of adapters with suitable tubes or plates.
- Make sure of use of same type (weight, material/density, volume) of tube or plate
all the time.
- Make sure you check balance of adapters, tubes or plates by using a scale and
they become symmetric.
• Clean a motor spindle and rotor holes with a dry cloth before you install a rotor.
• When you tighten a rotor on a motor spindle, temperature of a rotor and a motor spindle should be
between 10℃ and 30 ℃.
• Tighten a rotor screw turning clockwise with a hexagon wrench after you install a rotor on a
motor spindle.
• When you take a rotor out, turn a rotor screw counterclockwise with a hexagon wrench
Applying load to a rotor
• Tubes and adapter should be placed on a rotor symmetrically.
Recommended tubes should be only placed on a rotor.
• Weight difference between tubes containing samples should be as small as possible to minimize
noise and extend life of drive.
• Same type of tubes should be placed on a rotor due to a reason of mechanical stability.
• Clean rotor holes before you insert tubes.

Tubes arrangement
Same volume of sample should be put on tubes after you measure it exactly.
Tubes should be placed on a rotor symmetrically.
At this moment, if volume of symmetrical tube is different, a rotor and an axis of rotation can be
damaged due to severe vibration during rotation.
Location of centrifuge tubes facing each other should be symmetrical even though tube’s quantities
are same.
If tubes are not symmetrical in quantity, new tubes should be inserted to keep balance.
User is encouraged to use a scale to minimize the difference of volume between tubes containing
Samples.
In case you open tube’s lid for centrifugation by using a spin column, please lean tube’s lid against
the edge of a rotor for exact centrifugation and make sure type of tubes are same and close the lid
of rotor.
2. Installation Directions
This instruction should be applicable just in case you use tubes provided according to purpose of kit
manufacturer.

4. Cleaning and Maintenance
4.1 General check points
Please check it out for followings
1. Shaft : Do not bend a shaft. Check whether they are worn out.
2. Motor bearing : check whether it makes noise or rotates smoothly.
3. Electrical connection : Check whether its connection is loosened.
4. Rotor : check whether it is cracked, cleaned and worn out.
4.2 Cleaning
Be sure to remove the plug from the outlet before cleaning.
Equipment outside
1. Clean the outside of equipment with a soft and dry cloth.
If the outside of equipment is contaminated, clean it with a soft soapy cloth.
Then, clean the outside of equipment with a dry cloth to remove water.
2. Do not use chemicals such as alcohol, benzene and thinner that can damage products.
Clean the damaged part with a cloth soaked with a good quality of a neutral detergent.
3. Make sure do not scratch the surface of equipment when cleaning it.
Do not use a metal sponge.
Make sure do not scratch the surface of equipment when moving it.
Equipment can be rusty if the surface of equipment is scratched.
4. If equipment becomes rusty as it is left with water for long after use, remove rust with a neutral
Detergent and clean it with a dry cloth.
Equipment inside
periodically for effective refrigeration function.
1. Rotor & chamber installed into a refrigerated centrifuge should be defrosted and cleaned
2. To defrost the chamber, firstly switch power off and clean the inside of the chamber with dry cloth.
3. After complete defrosting, clean the chamber with wet sponge or cloth.
Then, clean the chamber with water again and dry it completely.

4. Cleaning and Maintenance
Rotor
If a rotor is exposed to acid or basic liquid, it gets damaged. In case rotor weight is imbalanced due
to corrosion, serious vibration and noise can happen when high speed rotating. Furthermore, it can
damage a drive shaft.
Rotor has good corrosion resistance in the atmosphere but its corrosion can be influenced by humidity,
salt content and impurities volume in the atmosphere.
Rotor is resistant to neutral aqueous solution such as carbonate, chromate, acetate and sulfide,
but it is not well resistant to chloride solution.
Also, its corrosion is getting faster due to increase in hydrogen ion concentration and it is eroded by
sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid and especially it is eroded faster by hydrochloric acid.
1. Corrosion of rotor and surface treatment
2. Rotor maintenance
Cleaning : In case a rotor is exposed to sample coming out of tube, clean it with a soft cloth soaked with
warm water immediately. At this moment, make sure do not scratch the surface treated specially.
Drying : Keep a narrow groove of a rotor dry with care. Hair dryer will be more effective for drying.
Keeping : Keep a rotor on a clean and dry place. Especially, a lid of angle rotor should be separated and
keep its body upside down.
Check sealing condition before use.
In case a lid screw of aerosol-tight rotor and sealing ring in pit parts are worn out, replace a rotor lid.
Check a sealing ring periodically to protect a rotor.
Keep aerosol-tight rotor with its lid loosened.
3. Aerosol-tightness
Rotor, its lid and bucket can be autoclaved (121℃, 20mins).
4. Rotor sterilization and disinfection
Drive shaft
1. To keep efficiency of refrigeration system, radiator should be protected from dust or other contaminant.
Otherwise, it can cause decline in refrigeration function.
You should clean radiator once every three months.
Waste disposal
1. This centrifuge should not be scraped for household and you are forced to comply with local wastes law.
