Centrifuges
Refrigerated Microcentrifuge
Features
- An intuitive control panel with liquid crystal display, brushless motor, and cooling capacity to spare are just a few of the features.
- The user-friendly control panel combines digital and analog control to make setting of operating parameters quick and easy.
- Speed can be set in either rpm or RCF.
- Operation of the unit can be timed, continuous, or momentary, using the “quick” button.
- Vibration free operation is ensured the motor isolation system.
- In the event of a significant imbalance, excessive vibration is electronically detected and operation of the centrifuge is automatically stopped.
- Deceleration at the end of a run is very quick, but will not disrupt samples.
- Maintains temperatures as low as -10°C and can reach 4°C from room temperature in less than 8 minutes.
- A uniquely designed, easy access 24 x 1.5/2.0 ml rotor is supplied with the centrifuge.
- Individual tube slots in the solid aluminum rotor support tubes along their length and contain the sample in the event of tube failure.
- Adapters are available for smaller tubes as well as PCR strips.
- The rotor is seated on a tapered shaft which facilitates easy removal for cleaning and autoclaving
Air Cooled Microcentrifuge
Features
- It features a powerful brushless motor,
- A user-friendly control panel, and
- Backlit LCD display.
- To keep sample temperature rise to a minimum, even when operating at maximum speed and can be used in a cold room.
- Speed can be easily set and displayed in either rpm or rcf.
- Vibration free operation is ensured by a motor isolation system.
- In the event of a significant imbalance, operation of the centrifuge is automatically stopped.
- Deceleration at the end of a run is very quick, but will not disrupt samples.
- Operation can be timed, continuous or momentary, using the “Quick” button.
- The centrifuge is supplied with a uniquely designed 24 x 1.5/2.0 mL rotor that allows for easy access to the tops of sample tubes.
- Individual tube slots in the solid aluminum rotor provide support to the tubes along their length and contain the sample in the event of tube failure.
- Adapters for smaller tubes as well as PCR strips are also available.
- The rotor is seated on a tapered shaft which allows for easy removal for cleaning and autoclaving.
Plate Centrifuge
Features
- Quickly Spin down droplets and condensation
- Use before and after thermal cycling to increase PCR yield
- Accepts skirted, non-skirted and all standard PCR plates
- Less than 1/4 the size of most plate centrifuges
Digital Microcentrifuge
Features
- Designed for low to medium speed applications.
- Operation of the unit is controlled by a microprocessor while time and rpm/rcf are set and displayed digitally.
- Airflow patterns within the chamber are engineered to keep samples cool and reduce rotor noise.
- The centrifuge is supplied complete with a removable, autoclavable rotor.
- The rotor accepts twelve 1.5 ml tubes directly and smaller tubes with adapters, sold separately.
- All of the Force microliter centrifuges are supplied complete with a removable, autoclavable rotor.
- Adapters are available for spinning smaller tubes.
Mini Centrifuge
Features
- A personal sized centrifuge,
- ideal for microfiltration,
- Quick spin downs from the walls and caps of tubes and low speed centrifugation of tubes and strips. The centrifuge is supplied complete with two rotors.
- The microtubes rotor accepts eight 1.5 ml tubes.
- Adapters are supplied to hold 0.5 ml and 0.4 ml tubes.
- The strip tube rotor will accept four 0.2 ml tube strips, such as those used for PCR, or thirty-two individual 0.2 ml tubes.
- Rotors are quickly and easily interchanged.
Controlled by the on/off power switch on the back of the unit. - Alternatively, with the switch in the on position, the rotor will start spinning when the transparent lid is closed, and will stop when the lid release button is pressed. The rotors start and stop quickly.
- Requires a minimum of bench space. It is easily transported from the bench to the hood or cold room – wherever it is needed.
