Preface Intended Purpose Intended Purpose • This centrifuge is a laboratory product designed to separate components by generation of a relative centrifugal force. It separates human samples (e.g. blood, urine and other body fluids) collected in appropriate containers, either alone or after addition of reagents or other additives. • As research laboratory or bioprocessing laboratory centrifuge, it is designed to also run other containers filled with chemicals, environmental samples and other non-human body samples. g • Maximum sample density at maximum speed: 1.2 ---------3 cm • This centrifuge...

Precautions A trained specialist can be a laboratory assistant or medical technologist. WARNING • Plug the centrifuge only into sockets which have been properly grounded. • If a hazardous situation occurs, turn off the power supply to the centrifuge and leave the area immediately. Note In order to ensure safe operation of the Sorvall LYNX 4000 / 6000 centrifuge, general safety regulations must be followed: Mind the accident prevention regulations in your country. The work environment should guarantee the following: WARNING • Maintain a radius of at least 30 cm around the centrifuge. The clearance...

Preface Precautions WARNING In order to ensure safe operation of the Sorvall LYNX 4000 / 6000 centrifuge , the following general safety regulations must be followed: • The centrifuge should be operated by trained specialists only. • The centrifuge is to be used for its intended use only. • Do not move the centrifuge while it is running. • Do not lean on the centrifuge. • Do not place anything on top of the centrifuge during a run. This applies also for the rotor landing pad. • Use only rotors and accessories for this centrifuge which have been approved by Thermo Fisher Scientific. Exceptions...

WARNING Please pay particular attention to the following aspects: • Location: well-ventilated environment, set-up on a level and rigid surface with adequate load-bearing capacity. • Rotor installation: make sure the rotor is locked properly into place before operating the centrifuge. • Especially when working with corrosive samples (salt solutions, acids, bases), the accessory parts and vessel have to be cleaned carefully. • Always balance the samples. Centrifuging hazardous substances: • Do not centrifuge explosive or flammable materials or substances which could react violently with one another....
