2. Installation
2.1 Unpacking the centrifuge
Before unpacking the centrifuge, inspect the outside of the carton for any shipping
damage.
The centrifuge is delivered in a carton with protective foam cushioning. Remove the
centrifuge from the carton. Retain thecarton and cushioning until it has been established
that the centrifuge is working properly.
Inspect the centrifuge for any visible signs of shipping damage. Shipping damage is the
responsibility of the transportation carrier. Any claims for damage must be filed within
48 hours with the carrier that delivered the centrifuge.
The accessories supplied with the centrifuge should be kept with the instruction manual
near the centrifuge’s place of installation.
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.
