5 Operation
Changing the Pre-Set safety settings
For the Syncore Analyst we strongly recommend not to raise
the maximum temperature above 100°C, reducing the mi-
nimum temperature below +20 °C, or raising the maximum
rotational speed above 300 rpm.
In special cases, the operator can change these safety set-
tings. The unit must be switched OFF. Use a small screwdriver
in the adjustment socket  on the back of the unit to change
the settings of the various individual switches.
Please inform all users when changing the pre-set settings.
Before starting a program, check whether the temperatures
entered are compatible with the new settings. Whenever the
maximum temperature has been raised, make certain that all
the sample tubes and the samples dealt with can withstand a
temperature higher than 100°C. The Crystal Racks were not
conceived to be used over a temperature of 100°C.
Please note that a change in the parameter „AutoStart of the
vortex movement“ results in an orbital movement by starting
the device. A high pre-set speed in combination with inade-
quate unba lance/imbalance compensation for the vortex
movement can lead to severe vibrations of the equipment
and, at the worst, to material or personal injury.
