2. Description of the Precellys®24/Precellys®24-Dual

2.1 Product Overview

The Precellys®24/ Precellys®24-Dual lyser / homogeniser has been designed

to lyse and to homogenise biological samples contained in grinding tubes, at

variable speeds. It can simultaneously agitate tubes with biological sample

volumes up to 7 mL at very high speed.

Precellys®24/Precellys®24-Dual’s main advantages include:

• Easy tube loading: an innovative system automatically blocks the grinding

tubes during operation.

• Easy decontamination: zones which have to be decontaminated are easily

accessible.

• Flexible and easy cycle programming (time, speed…).

• No alteration of the biological samples and no cross-contamination.

• Efﬁcient and homogeneous lysis in all tubes.

USER MANUAL

WARNING:

2.2 Tube Motion

Thanks to the equipment’s design and symmetry, every tube of the same

size strictly follows the same motion to ensure the same level of lysis and

homogenisation for each sample.

The centre of gravity of the tubes follows a tri-dimensional path on a sphere’s

surface. While the mixture contained in grinding tubes moves in all directions,

it moves primarily in the vertical axis to allow for efﬁcient homogenisation.

The movement generated by the Precellys®24/ Precellys®24-Dual equipment

is called a “precession” movement (i.e. grinding tubes are not rotated).

Each 2 mL tube has a stroke of 8 mm projected on the main vertical axis.

Each 7 mL tube has a stroke of 8.5 mm projected on the main vertical axis.

The tubes must be compatible with the holder and must withstand 600 G of

linear acceleration during 5 minutes without suffering any deformation (see

preconisation of use § 1.1.1 and recommended references § 2.3).

Precession movement doing biological sample homogenisation also causes

an increase of temperature of the samples and the equipment.

2.3 Lysing kits Precellys®24/Precellys®24-Dual

The Precellys lysing kits range includes tubes ready-to-use containing beads

adapted to every sample type. References of the lysing kits are available on

the website www.precellys.com.

DESCRIPTION

2.4 Programming

The Precellys®24 lyser / homogeniser has been designed to operate at a

maximum speed of 6,800 rpm. The Precellys®24-Dual lyser/homogeniser

has been limited at a maximum speed of 6,500 rpm. A run consists of one or

several cycles, between which the cover must not be opened.

Speed as well as other settings can be adjusted both in one of the ﬁve pro-

grams available on the keypad:

DESCRIPTION

The user can adjust four different homogenisation settings (see § 6) with

this interface. Buttons called “High / Plus” and “Low / Less” are used to

navigate through the menu and to adjust parameters. When used for naviga-

tion, the “High / Plus” and “Low / Less” buttons can be used to move the

selection cursor. The same buttons also allow the adjustment of the homog-

enisation parameters.

NOTE:

The green light can have 3

different states: on, ﬂashing

or off.

The red light can have 3 differ-

ent states: on, ﬂashing or off.

The operator is responsible for programming the unit. For each speed range,

the manufacturer recommends an operating range to prevent abnormal tem-

perature rise. See § 6.3 for further details.

For high speed operation, it is recommended to reduce each cycle duration

and let the unit cool down between 2 cycles (at least 2 minutes). A security

device disables the unit to prevent overheating.

2.5 Presentation of the Keypad

The LCD screen lights up when the Precellys®24/ Precellys®24-Dual equip-

ment is switched on. These messages guide you for programming and con-

trolling the cycles. The keypad (see diagram below) consists of a LCD screen,

4 buttons and 2 lights (green, red).
