Beckman Coulter - Optima L-100K
DESCRIPTION
Unmatched versatility, reliability and safety.Capable of generating 802,000 x g at speeds up to 100,000 rpm, Beckman Coulter's Optima L-100 K Ultracentrifuge enables you to perform — in less time — more separations, such as high-purity plasmid DNA, sub-cellular particles and virus isolation. This versatile floor model operates with a broad range of superb rotors, including zonal and continuous flow for large-volume separations. The L-100 K offers the reliability of a vacuum-encased induction drive, the simplicity of user-friendly, microprocessor-based control, and environmentally-friendly cooling system that eliminates the need for CFCs and other harmful liquid refrigerants. All this makes the L-100 K the right choice for your laboratory's routine separation needs.

2Replies6 years ago | Error Message: DIAG 66: Drive Malfunction I have a 1990's model Beckman Optima XL-100K centrifuge. Had been running well for over a year. Recently, the recent runs have shut down after about 5 minutes. The unit will restart and shut down about 5 min after hitting speed. There are no weird noises that I can ascertain. The centrifuge has been shutting down with the above error message. Among things I suspect is that the oil in the drive needs changing. I looked on line and there is no informatiion that I could find. When I querried Beckman about buying a service manual, the price was $3,213. Seems a bit steep for a nearly 30 yr old centrifuge. Any ideas on how to proceed? What can a reasonably competent user investigate and service to correct this situation.Reply |
