6.1 Connecng Power Adaptor
1. Connect one side of power adaptor to rear side of centrifuge and other to
supply as shown in the figure below.
2. Rotate clockwise the adaptor nut to ghten the adaptor with the centrifuge.
Ensure the power switch is OFF while connecng the power adaptor.
3. The scker on the body & jack are indicang the posion of the rib on the jack.
While fing the adaptor to the unit please match the scker posion as
shown in the figure below & gently push it in.
4. If matched correctly the plug will go in easily without much force (do not try
to force the plug in if it is not matched properly). Once the plug is inserted into
posion, turn the loose upper ring clockwise to ghten & to secure the
fitment.

8. TUBE HOLDER & ADAPTORS
This centrifuge features centrifugaon for wide range of volumes from 1ml to
15ml with the combinaon of its adaptors. The accessories included are:
“Tube Holders” are always to be used with the rotor. All of the 6 / 8 “Tube Holders”
are mandatory to be placed in the rotor whether 2,3,4 or 6 / 8 tubes are used in
balanced condion. By combining the above two adaptors and rubber caps, three
different reduced adaptor can be designed to hold different types of blood
collecon tubes.
The different adaptor combinaons along with tube holder, for different blood
collecon tubes are illustrated on pages 7 and 8.
Note: 1) Maximum RCF value changes for different length of tubes. 2) “TubeHolders” are the
part of Rotor. All 6 / 8 “Tube Holders” are mandatory to place whether 2,3,4 or 6 / 8 tubes are
used in balanced condion.

9. ROTOR INSTALLATION
The rotor of the centrifuge is pre-installed. In case of any spillage, remove the
rotor as shown in the above figure to clean the rotor and its chamber thoroughly.
9.1 REMOVING ROTOR
1. To remove rotor, first remove the Tube Holders.
2. Using T-Allen key, loosen the rotor nut by rotang rotor nut counter clockwise
and take the out rotor vercally
9.2 INSTALLING THE ROTOR
1. Make sure the rotor sha and the rotor mounng hole are clean. Load the
rotor vercally into the motor sha.
2. Put the T-Allen key in the rotor nut & turn clockwise to ghten the rotor.
3. Aer properly fastening the rotor, place the Tube Holders into the rotor.
10. BALANCING THE ROTOR
1. Always balance the rotor before centrifugaon. Symmetrical loading of tubes
in the rotor is necessary. Otherwise vibraon or imbalance can occur which
can cause serious damage to the centrifuge. The following are process of
symmetrical loading of centrifuge tubes inside the rotor.
2. The samples in the tubes should be of equal volume. To achieve a balanced

condion of the 6"Tube Holders are mandatory to place inside the rotor
whether 2, 3, 4 or 6 / 8 tubes are being used.
3. If the tubes are not loaded symmetrically then the imbalance detector will
cut off the running centrifuge for safety reasons. This will stop the centrifuge
and Err 55 will be seen indicang the tubes are not loaded symmetrically. To
resume operaon, load the tubes symmetrically & restart the centrifuge.
4. Below are examples of incorrect method of loading tubes into the centrifuge
rotor
11. OPERATION
Aer properly installing the centrifuge, switch ON the centrifuge from the rear
side by pressing the power switch. The lid status will be seen in the display. If the lid
is open, the display will show “Lid” and if it is closed, the set RPM will be displayed.
Please ensure that the Tube Holders are inside the rotor.
11.1 SETTING THE SPEED AND TIME
1. To set the speed press the RPM/RCF buon
first, then with the use of increment&
decrement buons to set the desired speed.
2. The increase and decrease of speed will take
place in the steps of 10 RPM. The Display
window at the boom will show the values.
3. The minimum and maximum speed of the
centrifuge is 500 R P M and 6500 R P M
respecvely. Speed is to be read as value x 10 in
the display window.

4. The speed can be changed during the operaon of the centrifuge, upon
changing the speed, the centrifuge will start running on the updated speed
for the remaining me le on the centrifuge cycle.
Note: Centrifuge will not run with the lid open.
5. To set me press the TIME buon first, then use INCREMENT and
DECREMENT buons, me can be set as desired me. The set me will be
displayed in the display window at the boom.
6. The me range in this centrifuge allows user to choose between 1 min & 30
minutes & infinite mode. Infinity mode displayed as ][.
7. The centrifuge incorporates a count down mer, aer each minute of
operaon the value of the mer is reduced by 1 minute.
11.2 SWITCHING TO RCF DISPLAY
Press the RPM/RCF to change the mode from RPM to RCF, while in RCF mode the
speed value is to be read as value x 10 in the display window. The maximum RCF of
the centrifuge is 3684 / 3873 xg. Press the RPM/RCF to see corresponding RCF
value.
11.3 START & STOP OPERATION
Once all the parameters like Speed & Time are set, press the “Start”buon to
START operaon.
1. Make sure that the lid is closed before starng the centrifuge.
2. The display will keep on blinking unl the set parameters are (RPM/RCF &
Time) reached. Once the set parameters are reached, the display will blink
mulple mes unl the set value is reached.
3. When centrifugaon is completed the lid of the centrifuge opens
automacally and the mer value will again start blinking.
Press the STOP/LID buon any me the centrifuge needs to be stopped.
Aer every run the lid opens by itself. In any other case, when the lid needs to be
opened push the STOP/LID buon to open the lid.
11.4 OPENING THE CENTRIFUGE LID IN CASE OF POWER FAILURE
Disconnect the centrifuge from the main
supply. Wait unl the rotor comes to a
standsll (thismay take some me).
Once the rotor has stopped, pull out the
emergency lid release as shownin the
figure. This will open the centrifuge lid.
Aer the centrifuge lid opens, push the
thread back in the hole with your hand
8

and fit the emergency release cap back in the hole.
11.5 IMBALANCE DETECTION
This centrifuge is equipped with an imbalance detecon safety feature. When the
rotor is not loaded symmetrically, imbalance detector gets acvated. This will cut
off the centrifugaon & error “Err55” will be shown on the display. To correct the
imbalance, open the centrifuge lid and correct the imbalance load using methods
described in the balancing the rotor secon (page no.10) of this manual. Aer
correctly loading the tubes into the rotor turn off the centrifuge & turn it back on.
12. SAFETY PRECAUTION
1. Never use the centrifuge in any manner not specified in the manual.
2. Never move the centrifuge while it’s operang.
3. The rotor must always be securely fastened. If the centrifuge makes an
unusual noise during the operaon, the rotor fit needs to be checked.
4. The rotor must be loaded symmetrically.
5. Do not use the centrifuge or rotor, if it is not installed correctly or it is
damaged.
6. Do not use the centrifuge or rotor if it shows any sign of external mechanical
or electrical damages.
7. The centrifuge must be used only for the specified applicaon. It must not be
operated in a hazardous or flammable environment & no hazardous or
flammable content should be centrifuged.
8. Do not fill tubes while they are in the rotor. Liquid spillage may harm the
device.
9. If liquid is spilled on the rotor or rotor chamber, the centrifuge must be
cleaned immediately.
10. “Tube Holders” are a part of the Rotor. They should be placed in the rotor
whether 2,3,4,6 or 8 tubes are being used.
13. TROUBLESHOOTING
This centrifuge has a self – diagnosc funcon. If a problem occurs, an
error/warning code will be displayed on the display screen and the operator can
determine the malfuncon with the warning code below.
ERROR PROBLEM SOLUTION
No display
No main power
connection.
Check power & properly plugin power

IMPORTANT NOTE:
1. If the centrifuge is working slow or hot due to overdraw current, restart the centrifuge and
check it again.
2. Do not use liquid with density higher than 1.2g/ml for full load operaon
