+The Jouan C3i is a laboratory centrifuge located in the first cupboard in the biolab.
+It has capacity for 6 x 50mL falcon tubes, and has a maximum speed of 10,000 rpm.
-The tachometer works (at low speed), the microswitches on the lid interlock switch on and off and the control electronics and front panel seem to work.
+The lid has an interlock requiring it to be powered on to access the rotor cups.
-There is a connection diagram for the main board on page 2-11 (page 20 in the pdf linked above). The motor drive is powered directly from the mains, separately to the rest of the main board.
+This equipment requires an induction if you do not have normal experience with these types of centrifuge.
-Connector J12 (supplying mains power to the motor drive) is badly damaged and I have removed it. This is a three way Panduit brand IDT connector. I think it is an ITW Pancon brand MAS-CON 3.96mm connector (eg. http://uk.farnell.com/itw-pancon/ce156f22-3-d/wire-board-conn-female-3pos-3-96mm/dp/1418234).
