CVS Series 18800 Hand
Driven Centrifuge
The CVS Series 18800 Hand Driven Centrifuge
delivers reliability, durability and rugged
construction, making it ideal for field use.
The centrifuge has a smooth dual gear-driven
system with a gear ration of 16:1 to assure efficient
centrifugal force for Sediment and Water testing.
The design of the gear ratio and throw of the crank
produce a smooth, effortless motion with maximum
speed and minimum effort.
The crank design provides ample clearance in all
directions when the tube shields and samples are
in motion. For rapid and secure attachment to
surfaces, the lugs are serrated and the clamping
screw comes furnished with a swivel-bearing
washer and thumbscrew lever.
With ordinary care, the CVS Series 18800 Hand
Driven Centrifuge will provide continuous service
over a long period.

Before operation, examine glass tubes, head and
machine for wear or damage. Clear the work area
of articles that might fall into or be in the path of
the whirling head. This could result in possible
injury to the operator as well as cause significant

wear safety glasses and other protective wear).
