Recall & Replacement Action : HAEMATOKRIT-Rotors 2076-2050

  Ladies and Gentleman,

The usage of certain detergents as well as deterioration processes may cause structural changes in plastic material.

Thus the stability of the HAEMATOKRIT Rotors might be reduced to a certain extent.As a cosequenes rotor breakage may happen even if the feasibility of that event is very low.

 Therefore as a mere preventive action we insist on the change of the following rotors:

Plastic rotor 2076 in HAEMATOKRIT 20 will be replaced by metel rotor E3037 WITH METEL LID E253

Plastic rotor 2050 in HAEMATOKRIT 24 will be replaced by metel rotor 2071 WITH METEL LID E253

 In the future the presently used plastic lid (E1426) with its double function as evaluation disc as well as lid of the rotor will never be allowed to be used for centrifugation!

 For Centrifugation only the new lid E253 made of metel has to be used.Theplastic lid (E1426) will only be used as a mere evaluation disc!

 All the rotors mentioned above have to be exchanged !

For the following Centrifuges

•  HAEMATOKRIT 20

•  HAEMATOKRIT 24

  which do longer correspond to the actual technical standard we offer you a unique and limited replacement action.
