Unico PowerSpin DX C8724 Centrifuge

Yes, the Unico PowerSpin DX C8724 is designed with a key safety mechanism to ensure secure operation in the laboratory.

This crucial protection is provided by the Zero RPM safety latching system. This mechanism ensures the lid remains locked and cannot be opened until the rotor has come to a complete stop, effectively preventing accidental contact with moving parts.

Yes, the Unico PowerSpin DX C8724 Centrifuge is equipped with suction cup rubber feet that are specifically designed to eliminate vibration, ensuring stable and quiet operation during use.

Yes, the Unico PowerSpin DX C8724 is specifically designed for the reliable and clean separation of common laboratory specimens. Its versatility makes it ideal for processing:

• Specimen Types: Blood, urine, semen, and fecal samples.
• Precision: The variable speed control (500 to 4000 RPM) allows you to adjust the relative centrifugal force (RCF) for optimal separation across different specimen types.

Rotor and Tube Compatibility

The unit features a 24-place fixed angle rotor accommodating tube sizes from 2 mL up to 15 mL:

• Direct Fit: Accepts standard 10 mL blood tubes and up to 15 mL urine tubes.
• Adaptors: Smaller tubes (2 mL and 5 mL) require specific adaptors (sold separately) for safe and secure centrifugation.

Workflow Efficiency

To enhance workflow, the centrifuge provides three convenient pre-programmed settings tailored for rapid setup of the most frequent applications: Blood, Fecal, and Urine.

Yes, the Unico PowerSpin DX C8724 Centrifuge is highly versatile, featuring a 24-place fixed angle rotor designed to accommodate tubes ranging from 2 mL up to 15 mL. This allows for processing common specimens like blood, urine, and semen.

Tube size compatibility is managed as follows:

• Direct Fit: Standard 10 mL blood tubes and up to 15 mL urine tubes fit directly into the rotor.
• Adaptors Required for Smaller Sizes:
  • 5 mL tubes: Require the short tube adaptor (#C800-03).
  • 2 mL tubes: Require the small tube adaptor (#C800-04).

Yes, the PowerSpin DX C8724 features three dedicated pre-programmed settings to help streamline your workflow and ensure consistent results for common applications. These include settings for:

• Blood processing
• Fecal processing
• Urine processing

For enhanced efficiency, the centrifuge also remembers the last custom setting used, making quick repeat runs much easier.

Yes, the Unico PowerSpin DX C8724 centrifuge achieves a robust maximum Relative Centrifugal Force (RCF) of 2508 g.

This high force is generated when operating at its top variable speed of 4000 RPM. This capability ensures the clean, complete, and reliable separation of various specimens, including blood, urine, and semen.

The Unico PowerSpin DX C8724 Centrifuge features a stainless steel rotor chamber, which is designed for easy cleaning and maintenance.

Yes, the PowerSpin DX C8724 Centrifuge provides highly precise digital control across all operational parameters, ensuring reliable and complete sample separation.

Key features supporting its precision and control include:

• Variable Speed Range: The speed is adjustable from 500 to 4000 RPM in fine 100 RPM increments, allowing it to achieve a maximum Relative Centrifugal Force (RCF) of 2508 g.
• Accurate Timing: The digital timer can be set up to 99 minutes in precise 1-second increments.
• Customization: You can adjust the acceleration and deceleration rates to optimize processing for different specimen types.
• Operational Convenience: The unit includes three pre-programmed settings for common procedures (blood, fecal, and urine) and recalls the last operational setting used for quick repeat runs.

Yes, the Unico PowerSpin DX C8724 Centrifuge is designed for global use and is available in two distinct electrical configurations:

• 110 V, 50/60 Hz
• 220 V, 50/60 Hz

When selecting your unit, please choose the voltage configuration that matches your facility’s power supply. Both voltage options are also available with or without the 24 Place Tube Holdster Rack accessory.

The Unico PowerSpin DX C8724 Centrifuge is compact and designed for easy benchtop placement. Please ensure you have adequate overhead clearance, as the lid requires 22 inches of height when fully open.
