FLOW-THROUGH CENTRIFUGE AND METHOD FOR BRINGING ABOUT AN OPERATIONAL STATE OF A FLOW-THROUGH CENTRIFUGE

Abstract: the invention relates to a flow-through centrifuge which is used, for example, for biotechnical applications, in particular as a blood centrifuge. a driving arrangement and/or transmission arrangement of the flow-through centrifuge comprises a planetary gearset. in the planetary gearset, at least one planetary belt pulley is rotatably supported on a rotating planet carrier. a torque of the planetary belt pulley is transmitted via a belt. the planet carrier and the planetary belt pulley are driven at different rotational speeds. according to the invention, the planet carrier is held by a belt tensioning unit rotating with the planet carrier. a distance of the planet carrier from a rotor axis can be changed via the belt tensioning unit in order to adjust the belt tension of the belt.
