Menu item/meaning Setting Function Display
Soft ramp
Reduce speed of acceleration and braking
ramp.
Not used for Short Spin centrifuging. on Rotor accelerates and brakes slowly.
off Rotor accelerates and brakes rapidly.
Key lock
Set the current centrifugation parameters
permanently to prevent the time,
temperature (only 5430 R), g-force (rcf) or
speed, soft ramp and At set rpm from
being unintentionally modified. on Set the centrifugation parameters
permanently.
off Release the permanent settings.
At set rpm
Set start of centrifuging run time. on The set time is counted down only
once 95% of the specified g-force (rcf)
or speed has been reached.
off The set time is counted down
immediately.
Short Spin
Before the start of a short run (see
Short-spin centrifugation on p. 40) it is
possible to switch between the maximum
and currently set g-force (rcf) or speed.
Soft ramp is not used for Short Spin
centrifuging. Maximum
value Short-spin run at maximum g-force
(rcf) or speed of the rotor used.
Current
value Short run at set g-force (rcf)/speed.
Continuous cooling (only 5430 R)
Time limitation of continuous cooling (see
p. 38) .
Continuous cooling is only activated when
the rotor is stopped and the centrifuge lid
is closed. 8 h Preset value.
∞ Endless operation of continuous
cooling.
Caution! Icing possible! Set at own
risk!
Fast Temp pro (only 5430 R)
Time and temperature programming for
the automatic temperature control run.
The selection
Once/Repeatedly only
appears if no Fast Temp pro has been set
(see FastTemp pro on p. 37).
Once Set the date and time for the start of a
temperature control run.
Repeatedly Set the week days and the common
start time for several repeated
temperature control runs.
Fast Temp pro is active from the date
set.
