Overview
A technician running cold sensitive samples gets a microcentrifuge with a compact cooling system built in. Knobs set time and speed, a display shows the running figures, and a separate short spin button handles quick runs.
The chamber holds its temperature even at full speed, and standby cooling maintains it between runs. The unit is heavy and the warranty is short.
Who it's for
Biology and clinical labs that want to avoid trips to a cold room. Labs that only run room temperature spins can use a smaller unrefrigerated centrifuge.
Pros and cons
- Chamber holds cooling at full speed
- Standby cooling between runs
- Lid opens fully under shelves
- Heavy for a benchtop unit
- Short limited warranty
- Only a 24 place rotor listed
Performance notes
The compact cooling system pulls the chamber down to the set temperature and holds it during runs, while the OptiBowl design cuts noise even without the rotor lid. Speed can be shown as rpm or g-force, which spares manual calculation.
