Abstract
A centrifugal separator capable of selectively mounting sedimentation tubes or capillary tubes on a rotor includes a container receptacle mounted in an outer box of the separator for receiving sedimentation tube containers. When the sedimentation tube containers are received in the container receptacle, their presence is detected to enable the rotor to rotate at a relatively high speed required when the capillary tubes mounted on the rotor.
