1.2 Safety Precautions

Before using the instrument, please read this operation manual to ensure correct usage. Incorrect
handling of the instrument could possibly result in personal injury or physical damage on the
instrument or its accessories.

1. ALWAYS locate the instrument on a

ﬂ

at, rigid and stable table capable of withstanding the weight

of the instrument and its spinning operation.
2. ALWAYS make a safety zone of 30 cm around the centrifuge to indicate that neither hazardous
materials nor persons should be permitted within the area during operation.
ALWAYS position the instrument with enough space on each side of instrument to ensure
proper air circulation.
3. ALWAYS install the instrument within a temperature and humidity controlled environment.
(Permissible ambient temperature: +5

℃

~ +35

℃

, Relative humidity:

≤

85%)

4. Before connecting the power, check the rated voltage.
5. Should not use unapproved rotors and associated accessories.
Only use rotors from Gene Company Limited with appropriate centrifugal tubes and suitable
adaptors to embrace sample containers tightly enough inside rotors.
6. Before operating the instrument, check if the rotor and the rotor lid are securelyfastened.
Should operate the instrument with a rotor properly installed and secured to the motor shaft.

GENESPEED

Refrigerated High-Speed Micro Centrifuge, 1730R

GENESPEED

7. Mount the rotor on the motor shaft properly, check it with spinning manually.
8. Do not stop the rotor by touching with hand during the instrument is running.
9. Emergency lid open should be performed only when spinning is completely stopped.
10. Should not exceed the rated speed or speci

c gravity. Samples whose density is greater than 1.2g/

ml must have reduced maximum rotational speed to avoid rotor failure.
11. The sample content should not exceed 80% of total capacity of a tube. Otherwise, it would cause
spillage of sample

ﬂ

uid and even the tube breakage.

12. ALWAYS load the tubes symmetrically with evenly weighted samples to avoid rotor imbalance.
If necessary, use the water blank to counterbalance the unpaired sample.
13. The operation speed should not exceed the highest value of the individual guaranteed g-forces of
each centrifuge, rotor, bucket or adaptors and sample container, especially the guaranteed g-force of
sample container should not be neglected.
14. The rotors should be cleaned and kept dry after every use for longer life and safety.
15. ALWAYS disconnect the power supply prior to maintenance care and service to avoid electrical
shock.
16. ALWAYS use proven disinfection procedures after centrifuging biohazardousmaterials.
17. Should not centrifuge

ﬂ

ammable, toxic, radioactive, explosive, or corrosive materials.

18. When it is necessary to use toxic or radioactive materials or pathogenic micro-organisms which
belong to the Risk Group II of WHO:

“

Laboratory Bio- safety Manual,

”

should follow national

regulations.

Do not place dangerous materials within 30 cm distance around the instrument, and that is also
recommended by IEC 61010-2-020.
Use the emergency lid open function only when the lid button on the control panel is dumb
under the condition of complete stop of rotor running.
Never try to open or move the instrument if it is not completely stopped.

If the power input is more than +/- 10% of the recommended voltage or fluctuates frequently, it

may cause malfunction of the instrument and often result serious damage.
Install the instrument at the place without any kinds of corrosive gases.
