6 Points You Have to be Taken Noticed If Using Refrigerated Centrifuge

Centrifugal pump is a device used for separating materials; it is broadly applied in laboratories，construction and in mining. The commonly used centrifuge pump in laboratory includes high speed refrigerated centrifuge and low speed refrigerated centrifuge.

When using a refrigerated centrifuge, the following 6 Points you have to be Taken Noticed:

1. An independent socket should be chosen for a low speed refrigerated centrifuge in order to guarantee voltage stability; if voltage instability occurs, the centrifuge pump should be connected to voltage-stabilized source to avoid damage to the machine; the desk centrifuge should be placed on a firm, stable and flat platform, and there must be enough space around the chassis for ventilation.

2. After using the refrigerated centrifuge, remember to take off the lid and wipe off the condensate water, letting it air-dry; before or after the centrifuging process, the centrifuge rotor should be lifted up and down vertically with gentle force to avoid collision to the rotor or the spindle.

3. Use neutral cleaning agent like soap-suds to clear up the dust or other remains on the centrifuge, but the toxic and radioactive elements requires special handling.

4. The rotor must be timely replaced if any corrosion or crack happens, and regular check and maintenance to the rotor is needed to avoid corrosion.

5. Regularly clear away the dust on the cooling fin which is on the back of the centrifuge via air compressions.

6. Emergency: if the cover can’t be opened, you could do it by manual operation.

Refrigerated centrifuge have the following advantages such as self-centering drive, programmable operation, braking system, built-in timer, advanced micro-processor control, and rotor management system. Programmable refrigerated centrifuges come with user friendly interfaces which provide all the vital information such as time, elapsed time, speed in RPM, temperature, and can be timed or set for automatic shut off after specific times. In addition, the refrigerated centrifuge has its cooling unit on the back of the unit which can save valuable lab space in your facility. They will offer a selection of swing out or angled rotors covering a multitude of sizes of tubes for optimal flexibility all within one compact machine.
