| Error Code | Description | Recommended Solution(s) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Rotor not recognized, or power issue | Reinstall rotor correctly. Check power connections. | | Error 3 / E3 | Incorrect speed measurement or temperature control | Check sensor connection. Verify cooling system settings. | | Error 4 / E4 | Lid lock sensor failure or rotor imbalance | Inspect lid lock and balance sample load. | | Error 5 / E5 | Lid switch damaged or over-speed warning | Inspect lid switch. Lower speed setting if too high. | | Error 6 / E6 | Low voltage | Check power supply voltage and circuit connections. | | Error 7 / E7 | Overspeed or temperature sensor failure | Reduce speed setting. Check sensor connection. | | Error 8 / E8 | Drive/motor error or control panel fault | Check for overheating. Try restarting device. |
