Technical data
The sample quantity should not be less than 25% of the
milling cup volume.
The milling ball(s) may otherwise damage the
milling cups.
The milling cup materials and milling ball materials
must always be identical.
The milling ball(s) may otherwise damage the
milling cups.
Do not make any alterations to the machine and use
only spare parts and accessories approved by Retsch.
Otherwise the Declaration of Conformity with the
European directives by Retsch loses its validity.
Furthermore this will result in the loss of any kind
of guarantee claim.
Do not use ceramic or natural stone milling cups for
milling graphite or graphite mixtures.
The high lubricating properties of graphite cause high
milling ball speeds, the energy of which cannot be
absorbed by the material owing to its low density.
For this reason there is a danger that the ceramic
or natural stone inserts of the milling cups will be
destroyed by the ball(s).
Target group: Operating authority, operator
Machine type designation: MM 200
Use according to the intended purpose
This machine is not designed as a production machine. It is a
laboratory machine intended for 8 hour single-shift operation
with a 30% on-period.
The MM 200 is suitable for milling and homogenising soft,
fibrous, hard and brittle materials in the wet and dry state.
The MM 200 is designed for very small quantities of
approx. 0.5 to 8 ml. This corresponds to 25% of the
milling cup volume, and is used for fast super-fine
milling of 2 samples simultaneously. The closed
milling system guarantees complete recovery of the
samples. Owing to the extremely short milling time
and the high final fineness of the material to be milled
the MM 200 is also ideally suitable for sample
preparation for all spectral analyses.
Final finenesses of down to 1 µm can be achieved,
depending on the milling time and the specific
properties of the sample material. The optimum
milling cup filling is as a rule 1/3 of the milling cup
volume.
Exceptions to this are voluminous materials, such as
wool, leaves, grasses and suchlike. In these cases a
filling level of 70-80% is possible.

The milling process
Quantities of milling material and grain sizes
5/21/2012 22 Retsch GmbH
Milling of materials which can cause a fire or explosion in
the MM 200 is prohibited.
Please take any necessary measures to prevent danger to
persons, depending on the dangerous nature of your
sample.
Please note that the properties, and therefore the
dangerous nature of your sample, can change during the
milling process.
Safety instructions for handling liquid nitrogen
When handling liquid nitrogen always wear protective
goggles and protective gloves.
Liquid nitrogen has a temperature of –196 °C and can
cause injury similar to burns or frostbite in contact with the
skin or eyes.
The protective goggles also protect the eyes against serious
injury through flying glass splinters resulting from bursting
of glass containers.
The MM 200 is also designed for cryogenic milling.
Please follow the safety regulations of the cooling
liquid supplier.
Retsch GmbH excludes any liability claims whatsoever
which may arise through the use of liquid nitrogen or
similar materials.

Safety functions
F01 - Overloading
In order to avoid overloading of the drive motor and resulting
endangerment to the user the MM 200 is fitted with a load monitoring
device.
In case of overloading the monitoring function switches the machine
off in good time.
At the end of the cooling time it is only necessary to switch the
machine off and on again in order to be able to operate it normally
again.
F02 – Speed recognition, zero speed
If the drive does not start up after pressing the start button there is a
fault in the system. Possible causes: drive blocked, motor or speed
sensor defective.
F03 – Speed recognition, overspeed
If the specified frequency is exceeded after starting, „F03” appears in
the display and the machine is switched off.
Possible causes of fault: defective speed sensor.
F04 – Hood open
The drive must not run when the hood is open. This serves to protect
the operator against injury. If the hood is opened when the machine
is running the control unit switches the drive off immediately and
“F04” appears in the display. If the start button is pressed with the
hood open in order to start the milling process F04 is also displayed
and the drive is not started.
This alarm can be cancelled by pressing the stop button.
F05 –Keyboard monitor
If one or more buttons are pressed for longer than 15 seconds the
control unit switches the drive off and displays “F05”. This function is
intended to prevent unintentional faulty operation if any object
accidentally presses on the keyboard. In order to cancel this fault
alarm switch the machine off and on again once.
F06 – Magnetic speed monitoring sensor
If one of the magnets that monitors speed is missing or defective,
this will be detected by the control, which will then switch off the
machine. “F06” will appear in the display. To eliminate this fault, it
must be repaired by authorised Retsch service technicians.
F07 – Magnetic switch – hood monitoring
If the magnetic switch which monitors hood opening has a
defect in the supply line this is recognised by the control unit
and causes the machine to be switched off. “F07” appears in
the display. To eliminate this fault repair by an authorised
Retsch service agent is necessary.General
5/21/2012 24 Retsch GmbH
Cleaning
Do not clean the MM 200 with running water.
Danger to life through current surge
Use only a cloth moistened with water. Cleaning agents
and solvents must not be used – not for cleaning the
milling tools either.
Do not make any alterations to the machine and use only spare
parts and accessories approved by Retsch.
Otherwise the declared conformity with the European
directives given by Retsch will lose its validity.
Furthermore this will lead to loss of any kind of
guarantee claims.
These operating instructions do not include instructions for
repair. For your own safety repairs should be carried out only
by Retsch GmbH or an authorised representative (service
technicians).
Maintenance
The MM 200 is maintenance-free. When used properly
no maintenance and setting work need be carried out.
Wear
The milling tools can become worn, depending on the
frequency of the milling operation and the material to
be milled. The milling cups and ball(s) should be
regularly checked for wear and replaced if necessary.
Wearing parts
Checks
Correct functioning of the hood switch must be checked
regularly:
• Switch on the machine with switch E.
• Start milling operation with start button P.
• Lift the hood.
• If there is an opening gap of a few cm the machine is
switched off and F4 appears in the display.
• Cancel F4 with stop button O.
If this switching off function does not take place the MM 200
must be checked immediately by Retsch service.
