OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
CAPRICORN BENCH TOP CENTRIFUGE
MODEL NO. CEP 2000
SETTING UP
WARNING - THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE EARTHED
1. Insert the mains lead into the IEC power inlet at the rear of the unit.
2. Plug the unit into a grounded power socket - DO NOT SWITCH ON
(OFF is indicated by ‘0’, ON is indicated by ‘1’).
3. Ensure that the TIMER is in the OFF position, signified by the pointer
being in a vertical position, and that the SPEED control knob is set to ‘0’
(see Figure1).
4. Switch the power on at the rear of the unit. At this point the green ‘POWER’
neon indicator will come on and, after a short delay, the amber ‘LID OPEN’
neon indicator will also come on, indicating that the lid may be opened.
LOADING
1. Open the lid by undoing the catch on the front of the unit and lifting the lid.
2. Place the sample tubes in the rotor, ensuring that:
(a) The correct tubes are inserted into their corresponding places in the rotor,
if the rotor accommodates more than one size of tube.
(b) The rotor is loaded symmetrically, using tubes of equal size with contents
of equal weight. If you are unable to balance the rotor, due to an odd number
of tubes, fill an empty tube with water and use this as a balance. This water
filled tube can, if necessary, be used continually for this purpose.
(see Figure 2).
