Rotor Fitment and Details
Centurion
Scientific Limited
Welcome
It is of p
a
import ramount
read thisance you
doc
before u ument
se
to our Rotor Fitment, balancing,
care and safety manual
Centrifuges can be dangerous if rotors are not correctly fitted, samples
are not correctly loaded or poor samples tubes are used.
Rotor fitment is from Page 8-41. Please look up the rotor to be used to
go to the relevant pages. Read carefully and follow the instructions.
We recommend:
● Quality tubes are used
● Y
ou balance within
1 gram
● Y
ou balance the rotor
correctly.
● Y
ou always fit the lid
supplied
● W
e recommend that
you check the rotor for
cracks reguarly.

Tubes can break or rupture causing
damage or sample failure. We know
how much time & work it may take
to get to this point to be ruined by a
cheap tube. Although our imbalance
system is sophisticated and will shut
down if exceeded. Centrifugation is
about seperation and good balancing
gives better separations.
Always place balanced tubes opposite
to each other, as shown, in the pictures.
Lids are used to prevent aerosol effects
and reduce air flow and therefore noise.
If a crack is found. DO NOT USE.
Rotors are under a constant strain and need to be kept clean and checked for
strain.
DO NOT exceed the life of the rotor 7 years maximum.
For samples of an unknown nature we recommend you check before centrifugation
by using the Chemical Resistance Table, page 42 onward.
We do not recommmend the use of strong acids, strong Alkalis or strong
radioactive samples, these can damage the rotors and the Centrifuge.

• High quality Polypropylene
• Autoclaveable
The rotor in this device can be
detached And efficiently function
as a holder in Which test tubes can
be fitted, Centrifuges, transported,
incubated and Emptied without the
necessity for Individual handling.
2 sets of adaptors supplied,
12 of each size
Our adaptors enable tohe rotor to
handle both 10 x 75mm and
12 x 75mm tubes.
This included rotor carries 12 tubes
but can operate with any balanced
load of fewer tubes and any
combination of sizes as long as these
are properly balanced.
This offers comlete flexibility for the
user.

Always keep buckets & adapters clean and free from
moisture at all times, this will help prevent corrosion.
Use only official Centurion Scientific accessories with
your product Always ensure samples are distributed in a
diametric pattern to ensure the machine runs balanced.
Rotor pins should be kept clean and lubricated on a regular
basis.
It is recommended that your centrifuge is switched off and
the lid left open overnight to ensure that any moisture build
up can evaporate.
Always ensure that lids and accessories are correctly
tightened before running the unit.
Ensure that all buckets are present in the rotor when
running your centrifuge, as using the unit with an
unbalanced rotor can cause distortion and excessive wear.
Do not use any kind of scourers or abrasive material to
clean the buckets and ensure that a pH neutral cleaner is
always used.
Aluminium buckets should be kept clean and moisture free
to keep them in a good, safe operating condition.
It is recommended that regular maintenance and cleaning
of the unit and accessories is carried out.

Nomograph for RCF Determination
Example
To find the relative centrifugal
force at a radial distance of 10
cm from the center of rotation
when operating the centrifuge
at a speed of 3000 r.p.m., place
a straightedge on the chart
connecting the 10cm point on the
Rotating Radius Scale (A) with the
3000 r.p.m. point on the Speed
Scale (B).
Read the point at which the
straightedge intersects the
Relative Centrifugal Force Scale
(C) – in this case, 1000 x gravity.
Similarly, if the desired “r.c.f.” is
known, the necessary speed for
a given rotating radius may be
determined by connecting the
two known points and reading the
intersection of the straightedge
with the Speed Scale.
Equation for Calculating R.C.F.
R.C.F. = .00001118 x r x N2
R.C.F. = relative centrifugal force (gravities)
r = radius from center of rotation to bottom of tube (cm)
N = rotating speed (rev. per minute)
