Rotors, buckets, adaptors and tubes are selected as a system for the intended application; a dash indicates that the brochure does not list a standalone operating value for that component.
Key features
- Floor-standing format preserves bench space for sustained sample processing.
- Maximum capacity of 4×750 ml with swing-out rotors or 6×250 ml with angle rotors.
- Refrigerated FR reaches 18,000 rpm and 34,770×g.
Control and safety
- Colour TFT touchscreen, APRI™ automatic rotor identification and storage for 50 programs.
- Self-centring brushless drive with multistage acceleration, deceleration and dynamic electronic braking.
- Imbalance shutdown, overspeed checking, automatic lid locking and emergency slow release.
