3. The operation principles

The centrifuge machine helps to separate, condense or purify the different density components (or particles) of the solutions by the usage of centrifugal sedimentation principal.

After placing the centrifuge tubes with equivalent test solutions in the test tubes around the rotors symmetrically and starting the machine, the RCF produced in the high-speed rotary of the rotors, which are driven by the motor, separates the different density components (or particles) in the test solutions. The value of RCF depends on the rotating radius "r" (the horizontal distance from the position of the test solutions to the axle center) and the rotating speed "n", and here is the calculation formula.

RCF=1.118x10-6n2rxg

n------------ The rotating speed (r/min)

r------------The rotating radius (mm)

The time (Ts) needed during the separation and deposition of the mixed solutions is calculated

by this formula:

27.4x(logeRmax-logeRmin)μ

Ts =min

n2r2(б-ρ)

Type: Rmax------The rotating radius of the test solutions having the farthest distance with the axle center

Rmin------The rotating radius of the test solutions having the nearest distance with the axle center

ρ------The density of the mixed solutions (g/cm3)

μ------ The viscosity of the mixed solutions (p) n ------ The rotating speed (r/min)

r------The particle's radius (cm)

б------The particle's density (g/cm3)

1. This machine should not be used in the humid places with high temperature and large fugitive dust.

2 .To ensure the safety and its centrifugal effect, this machine should be placed in the solid, quakeproof and horizontal platform, and all four undercarriages should be given the balanced load.

3. The solutions in the centrifugal tubes should be seen as even as possible. If the solutions in

the tubes vary too much, there would be a large scale of vibration. In this kind of situation, the operating machine should be stopped its operation and checked to meet the requirement of the solutions in the tubes. The centrifugal tubes should be placed symmetrically in the even numbers, and the nut caps connecting the rotors with the motor shaft should be tightened.

4,During the operation process, the centrifugal machine cannot be moved, and the faceplate

cannot be uncovered.

5. The faceplate should not be uncovered in the situation that the motor and the rotors do not stop the operation completely.

6. The power supply has its own earth wire, so the null line and the earth wire cannot be used together, so as to prevent the damage of electric shock.

7. After the whole separation, the centrifuge machine should be cleaned up in time, the power switch should be turn off, and the power supply should be cut off.

8. It should be very careful to take out the rotors. The proper way is to knock upward slightly the rotors on the bottom by using nonmetal tools (like the handle of the screwdriver) until the connection between the rotors and the motor shaft becomes loose. The rotors should not be

pulled out directly with hands after loosening the nut caps, so as not to damage the flexible support system of the machine.

9.The rotors ad the centrifugal tubes should be checked regularly. If there are any cracks or

aging phenomena, those components should be replaced immediately.

Instruction: There is an emergency device on the bottom of the machine. If the sample should be taken out during the power outage, the faceplate can be uncovered by pulling the stainless wire on the bottom after the rotors stop the operation. But this device is forbidden to be used during the operation process.
