Key product highlights
Ease of use
Simplify operation with intuitive controls, easy-to-read displays and fast one-click centrifuge lid closure.
Fast and efficient
Fast acceleration and deceleration, and outstanding corrosion resistance with lightweight engineered polymer rotors; includes a broad array of microcentrifuge rotors and accessories for processing micro-volumes.
Protective of user and samples
Ergonomic one-click biocontainment lid opening and closing, as well as transparent design for added safety with certified1 ClickSeal biocontainment lids.
Small samples, fast processing
The 21,100 x g microcentrifuge models are designed for high-end research applications that demand the fastest runs, and the 17,000 x g models are excellent for routine lab work. All microcentrifuges feature intuitive controls, easy-to-read displays, and one-click lid closure.
Two standard rotors
Two standard rotors, made of lightweight engineered polymer to resist corrosion, are included with microcentrifuges and accept 1.5, 2, and 5 mL microtubes. Other polymer rotors support 0.2 and 0.5 mL microtubes, PCR strip tubes, and hematocrit capillary tubes. Some rotors accommodate ClickSeal biocontainment lids for added sample protection.
