audio alarm. LED is on when movement is stopped more than predefined
time.
 „Movement on/off“
Switch with light bulb. Light on indicates that movement is turned on and
shelves must move.
6.2 Technology
Thrombocyte Shakers converts rotational movement of the motor to linear motion

of top compartment used for storing product.
6.3 Alert Specification
Signal sequence during normal work:
1)Blinking GREEN light – movement OK

2)Constant RED light – movement stopped for more than 2min
3)Audio alarm – Movement stopped for more than 2min
Attention! If you do not use the device intermittently or for long

periods, the device should not only turn off but disconnect from
the power line. The motion alarm monitoring is always in

7 User instructions
7.1 Setup and operations
7.1.1 Drawer extraction
For reason of safety, every drawer is equipped with a security pin to prevent
accidental extrication, while placing bags.
For removal, extract the drawer as far as possible and then tilt it to an angle of
about 45° - 60° to take it out.
7.1.2 Alarm connection
If needed, thrombocyte shaker can forward the alarm to cooling unit using D-sub
connector at the back of the device.
Assignment of the Sub-D Socket (9 pin) for alarm connection:

Pin 5 C- common
Pin 8 NC- normal close
Pin 9 NO- normal open
7.2 Putting into operation
 Connect plug to a 220-240 V / 50 Hz socket with turned off movement

switch (position 0). Please make sure your power supply has these
specifications only. An under-or over-voltage may seriously harm the
device. Use an appropriate adapter if necessary.
 Turn the switch “movement” to position I to start the agitating

procedure. Switch with light bulb. Light on indicates that movement is
turned on and shelves must move.
 To equip the appliance with platelet conserves, pull out one drawer, put
the bag on and push it shut again. A catch saves the drawers from falling
out.
 Each drawer is able to pick up 4 or 8 bags, depending on the size of the

appliance.
 As long as platelets are stored, the appliance rests switched on and the
frame is agitating. All devices have movement alarm and give an alarm
sound after round 2 minutes of standstill. At the same time the alarm
signal will be forwarded to the 9 pin Sub-D connector. The alarm can be
stopped by switching on the Thrombocytes Shaker.
