What is “Fast Temp” (Centrifuge 5418 R)?
“The “”Fast Temp”” function is a temperature control run of the Centrifuge 5418 R without samples and with a rotor and temperature-specific rotational speed in order to quickly bring the rotor chamber, incl. the rotor, buckets and adapters, to the set nominal temperature. In order that the samples can be centrifuged from the beginning on at the desired temperature, one starts this temperature control run during sample preparation by pressing the “”Fast Temp”” key. The display shows the current temperature and g force (rcf) or speed (rpm) as well as “FT” as symbol for a “Fast Temp” temperature run.
