Yingtai: The steps to handle abnormal vibrations in a centrifuge

 

1. Immediate Shutdown: Upon detecting abnormal vibrations, promptly press the stop button to halt the centrifuge operation to prevent further equipment damage and ensure safety.

 

2. Check Sample Balance:

   - Remove the centrifuge tubes and check if the sample load is evenly distributed and balanced.

   - If there is an imbalance, readjust the placement of the samples to ensure balance before proceeding with centrifugation.

 

3. Inspect the Rotor:

   - Carefully examine the rotor for any signs of damage, deformation, or corrosion.

   - Check that the rotor is securely installed and free from any looseness.

 

4. Check Centrifuge Installation:

   - Ensure that the centrifuge is installed on a stable surface and that the anchor bolts are tightened.

   - Inspect the surrounding environment for any foreign objects that may be causing vibrations.

 

5. Cleaning and Lubrication:

   - Clear any debris and dirt from inside the centrifuge.

   - Check and add necessary lubricating oil to ensure proper lubrication of moving parts.

 

6. Restart Test: After completing the checks and adjustments, restart the centrifuge at a lower speed and observe whether the vibrations have been eliminated.

 

7. Seek Professional Repair if Issues Persist: If abnormal vibrations continue after the above measures, contact a professional technician for inspection and maintenance.

 

Note: Always adhere to relevant safety operating procedures when addressing abnormal vibrations in a centrifuge.
