1. PREFACE
1.1. The purpose of this manual is to provide the service technician with information for
troubleshooting, testing, and repair of laboratory centrifuge model Horizon 24. Only
qualified technically trained personnel should attempt any of the servicing described in
this document. Failure to follow the procedures in this document may result in personal
injury or instrument damage. Drucker Diagnostics will not be held liable for any injury or
damage because of improper servicing.
1.2. Information contained within this manual is subject to change without notice.
2. INTENDED USE
2.1. This centrifuge is a laboratory product designed to separate components by generation
of relative centrifugal force. It separates human and animal samples – such as blood,
urine and other body fluids -- collected in appropriate specimen receptacles, either alone
or with reagents or other additives. As a general-purpose laboratory centrifuge, it is
designed to also run other containers filled with chemicals (non-flammable, nonÂexplosive, non-volatile, and non-highly reactive only), environmental samples, and other
non-human body samples. This centrifuge should be operated by trained personnel only.
This centrifuge is an IVD accessory, and therefore subject to the former EU IVD Directive
98/79/EC and the current EU IVD Regulation 2017/746. Any use other than those
intended by the Manufacturer is explicitly prohibited. Maximum sample density is 1.15
grams/mL.
3. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF MAJOR COMPONENTS
3.1. Motor: Permanent Split Capacitor AC Motor
3.2. Control Board: The control board is the microcontroller-based control center of the
centrifuge. All control signals are generated in the control board.
3.3. Lid Locking Tray Assembly: The lid tray assembly contains a solenoid and limit switch that
are used to determine the state of the lid (Open or Closed) and to keep the lid locked
during centrifugation cycles.
3.4. Rotor: The centrifuge rotor is the main component that spins in the centrifuge. The rotor
is loaded with tube holders, and the samples are placed into the tube holders for
processing.
4. WARRANTY INFORMATION
4.1. Drucker Diagnostics warrants its centrifuges to be free from defects in workmanship and
parts for two years.
