The key takeaways are that the document provides instructions for operating and maintaining a tabletop low speed centrifuge, including its main parts, principles of operation, specifications, troubleshooting tips, and maintenance procedures.

The main components of the centrifuge are the control panel, framework, damping system, cover, rotor, nut, motor, and electric controlling system.

The centrifuge separates samples using centrifugal force. As it rotates, the heavier and more dense solutions are forced to the bottom of the sample tubes, while less dense solutions rise to the top.

7.1 Control panel (see the following fig ) ○
1 Check up: Make sure the speed knob point to “0” position.

2 Turn on the POWER switch, the power indicating light comes
on, then turn TIMER knob to a time that you need.
NOTE : Turn TIMER knob right, you can set time from 0 to
minutes; turn left, the instrument will run continuously.

3 Set SPEED knob to make the speed indicator points to a
desired value that you need, the machine start running.

8.1 Please read the manual book before operation.
8.2 If you found test tubes were aging or corroded before using
it, please replace them in a timely manner
8.3 The power should have reliable grounding.
8.4 The test tube with sample(s) must be placed in a balanced
manner. Put into the rotor symmetrically as to keep balance.


2 Set up the rotor, then screw the nut into place.

3 Place tubes with sample(s) in a symmetrical order, so rotor
can be balanced.
