Frequently asked questions
Does it have safety features to prevent accidents?
Yes, this centrifuge prioritizes operator safety with several robust features: zero RPM lid latch protection and a lid interlock. These mechanisms ensure that the lid cannot be opened while the rotor is in motion and prevent the unit from starting if the lid is not securely closed.
Is it easy to operate while wearing gloves?
Absolutely. The unit is specifically designed for clinical environments, featuring a push-button keypad that remains easy to navigate even while the operator is wearing protective laboratory gloves.
Does the motor require frequent maintenance?
No, the centrifuge is equipped with a high-performance brushless AC motor. This motor type is specifically selected for its quiet operation and its maintenance-free design, ensuring long-term reliability in busy lab settings.
Can it save my settings for repeated tasks?
Yes, it features smart memory settings. The unit automatically memorizes your last used time settings, which allows for a seamless and efficient workflow when performing repetitive batch runs.
Which size tubes can I use with this rotor?
The six-place horizontal rotor is compatible with standard laboratory tubes ranging from 2 ml to 12 ml. Please note that for tubes shorter than 100mm, optional adapters are required.
Will it remain stable during high-speed operation?
The unit is engineered for stability. The base is equipped with suction cup synthetic rubber feet, which provide a firm grip on laboratory benchtops to prevent movement or vibration during operation.
Does the unit provide feedback when the cycle ends?
Yes, the electronic timer, which is adjustable from 1 to 99 minutes, includes an end-of-run beep signal to alert the operator immediately once the separation cycle is complete.
Is the material free from natural rubber latex?
Yes, this product is manufactured with material safety in mind and is specifically noted as not being made with natural rubber latex.
Is the centrifugal force consistent for clinical samples?
Yes, the unit provides consistent, reliable performance with a fixed speed of 3,500 RPM, generating a steady relative centrifugal force (RCF) of 1,777g.
Is it suitable for professional clinical laboratory use?
It is specifically designed for professional environments, including clinical laboratories, medical offices, and diagnostic facilities, where precise horizontal separation of samples like blood is required.
