These Instructions supplement the Concentrator plus/ Vacufuge ® plus User Guide. They do not replace it. Be sure to
read the User Guide before you begin to use the rotor. The current User Guide version is available on the Internet at
www.eppendorf.com.
Caution: Rotor can fall over if not handled correctly.
The rotor A-2-VC buckets should not be used as handles.
Remove the buckets before you reposition the rotor.
Always grasp the rotor disc, using both hands.
Place the skirted microtest plates and PCR plates securely
into the bucket.
Do not allow the plates to protrude over the edge of the
bucket.
In order to insert tubes, tube strips, and unskirted PCR
plates, you need to use a special work plate
(order no.: 0030 124.235).
Fit the loaded work plate into the rectangular hole in the
bottom of the bucket.
Use the guides at the sides of the hole.
During centrifugation, the meniscus in the wells at the sides of
the plates is not horizontal. This is an effect of the centrifugal
force and is unavoidable.
The wells of the plates should be filled to no more than
2/3 of their volume capacity.
