Centrifuge for PRP 8 tubes Fixed Speed 3,500 rpm

USA E8 Variable-Speed, Angled 8-Place Centrifuge with Timer: The USA E8 Centrifuge is designed, engineered, and assembled at LW Scientific’s ISO-certified, FDA-registered manufacturing facility in Lawrenceville, GA. Expect American quality as well as customary LW Scientific support. This model is loaded with features and improvements, such as higher speeds for faster and cleaner separations, quieter operation for peaceful work environments, lower chamber temperatures for cooler test-tube samples, shorter height to fit under any cabinet, and auto-calibrating speed function for precision results. It even has an auto-brake to stop the rotor in less than 30 seconds to save time in the busy labs. Now the E8 family also includes a digital model, with no knobs and precise time and speed programs for CLIA compliance and the highest accuracy at an affordable price.

Indications

For PRP and blood centrifugation only.

How to Use

To operate: Turn the lid latch to the UNLOCK position (“U”). Open to verify that there are no loose objects or packing material in the tube chamber and then insert all 6 black plastic tube shields into the rotor openings. The tube shields will rest at a slight angle while stopped for easy loading and unloading of the test tubes and will swing out to a horizontal position while spinning, ensuring a better straight-line separation of the samples. Verify that the power switch on the front of the unit is in the OFF position. Connect the power cable to the power supply adapter, and then connect the power supply adapter to the back of the centrifuge. Plug the power cable into an approved and properly grounded outlet. Do not insert specimen test tubes prior to initial test run. Close the lid, turn the lid latch to the LOCKED position (“L”) and turn power switch ON. For fixed and variable units, turn the timer to 10 minutes. For digital units, adjust speed to 3500rpm and set the timer to 10 minutes. Now press RUN. If there is a smooth whirring sound and the unit accelerates with little or no vibration, your E8 centrifuge is ready to operate. If there are loud, unusual sounds or if you experience excessive vibration, immediately turn the unit off. DO NOT OPERATE – Contact us. Angled at rest, Horizontal while spinning, Loading and Operation. The black plastic tube shields are designed to hold 3.0ml-4.5ml test tubes, which are usually 13mm diameter x 75-80mm tall. Do not insert tubes taller than 90mm. Spin only balanced loads. Make sure that tube shields are filled with equal weight tubes. Tubes of equal weight and size should be placed opposite each other, or 3 in a triangle as pictured below. Use water-filled tubes for balance if necessary. Proper sample balancing will improve sample separation and will extend the life of the centrifuge. Out of balance loads may break glass test tubes or damage the centrifuge. For fixed and variable speed units, the mechanical timer should always be turned past 10 minutes to engage the spring and bell. The timer can then be turned forward or backward to select time. After each run cycle has ended, the lid must be opened and closed before the next cycle is run. This allows for re-loading and re-balancing each load. WARNINGS: Always ensure rotor is secure before each use! DO NOT OPEN WHILE SPINNING.
