Instructions for positioning tube caps when loading the Microcentrifuge tube rotor.
The photo below shows the proper orientation of the caps of the Microcentrifuge tubes after they
have been loaded into the Centrifan
TM PE rotor. Rotate each cap clockwise until it reaches the
two o-clock position relative to the tube opening.
This will prevent the cap from potentially slowing the drying rate of the adjacent tube to the right
by blocking the tube opening from the gas flow. This cap location will also assure that the heater
fins will not contact the tubes when the lid of the Centrifan
TM is closed.
