Is it possible to turn off forced breaking?
Yes, this function has been introduced from May 2015. By default, centrifuge applies force to stop the rotor.
To toggle between forced breaking and free breaking, press Open key and hold it for 8 sec. Using Down and Up keys, choose between BRAKE OFF (free breaking) and BRAKE ON (forced breaking). Press and hold Open key for 8 sec to exit.
Is it possible to use glass tubes in LMC-3000?
Yes, but only high quality glass tubes for centrifugation, otherwise we do not recommend to use glass tubes.
