Concentrator plus / Vacufuge® plus — Operating manual
(1) Maximum load per rotor bore for adapter + tube + content.
2.4.1 Special note on the individual rotors
Rotor F-45-72-8 and rotor F-45-48-11
You can place two of these rotors on top of each other in any arrangement by using a spacer
(order no. Int.: 5301 316.005 / North America: 022822101) and centrifuge at the same time.
For this combination, lower upper limits apply to the maximum load: bottom rotor: 2/3 of the
max. load, top rotor 1/3 of the max. load.
Included with the accessories are rotor feet which can be attached to the corresponding bores
on the rotor using screws. Their purpose is to prevent the samples from being pushed out of
the bores when the rotor is put down on the work bench. The rotors can be centrifuged with
the rotor feet. The screws must be checked monthly and re-tightened, if required.
