Abstract

An analysis system of the centrifugal analyzer type has an analysis station for receiving a multi-cuvette rotor unit with means at the analysis station for performing analyses on the contents of a plurality of cuvettes of a multi-cuvette rotor unit concurrently, and means at the analysis station for spinning the rotor unit. Rotor hold down means at the analysis station includes disc structure for seating engagement with loading ports of the rotor unit at the analysis station, a disc support for allowing the disc to rotate freely in alignment with the drive axis of the drive mechanism, and mechanical means for moving the freely rotatable disc between an operative position in seating engagement with the loading ports of the rotor unit and a second position spaced from the seated position.
