A method for separating a volume of composite fluid contained into at least a first and a second fluid components comprises the steps of:Spinning a separation container (11) containing the volume of composite fluid at a rotation speed allowing for the separation of the first fluid component and the second fluid componentSqueezing the separation container (11) until a characteristic of a fluid component is detected at a first location between the separation container (11) and a first component container (12) connected thereto so as to transfer at least a fraction of the first fluid component into the first component container (12) andSqueezing the separation container (11) until a characteristic of a fluid component is detected at a second location between the separation container (11) and a second component container (24) connected thereto so as to transfer the second fluid component into the second component container (24).
