Characteristics
Several rotors with a wide range of tubes can be used.
The set speed is reached within seconds. The maintenance-free induction motor ensures quiet
and low-vibration operation even at high speeds, and guarantees a very long lifetime.
The user-friendly control panel makes it easy to pre-set the speed, RCF value, running time,
temperature, and running profile (acceleration and braking curves). You can choose between the
display of speed and RCF or the entry mode.
These settings can be changed even while the centrifuge is running.
With the help of the PULSE key

The centrifuge is equipped with various safety features:
• The housing and rotor chamber consist of steel plate, the interior of armour steel, while the front
panel is made of high-impact resistant plastic.
• The lid is equipped with a view port and a lock.
• The lid of the centrifuge can only be opened while the centrifuge is switched on and the rotor has
come to a complete stop. The centrifuge cannot be started until the lid has been closed properly.
• The integrated rotor detection systems ensures that no inadmissible speed settings can be
preselected.
• Electronic imbalance recognition
• Lid emergency release: For emergencies only, e.g. during power failures (see
