Labnet Prism Air-Cooled Microcentrifuge (C2500) User Manual
Page 7

2.2 Required space
The centrifuge should be installed on a rigid, even surface such as a stable laboratory
bench, countertop, etc. To guarantee sufficient ventilation, ensure that the centrifuge has
at least 15cm (6 inches) of free space on all sides, including the rear.
The centrifuge should not be located in areas subject to excessive heat such as in direct
sunlight or near radiators or the exhaust of a compressor, as a buildup of heat may occur
within the chamber.
2.3 Installing the Centrifuge
Before operating the centrifuge, check that the power source (electrical outlet on the wall)
corresponds to that on the manufacturer’s rating label, then connect the power cord to the
centrifuge and the power source.
