Spectrafuge™ 16M Microcentrifuge
The Spectrafuge™ 16M is the perfect, high speed, compact microcentrifuge. A brushless, maintenance free motor provides extremely fast acceleration and deceleration of the 18 place rotor and makes the Spectrafuge™ 16M the quietest microcentrifuge in its class.
- Brushless, maintenance-free motor
- Exceptionally quiet and cool operation
- High maximum speed/g-force
- Extremely small footprint
Speed and time are set with the control knobs on the front panel of the unit. A quick button allows for momentary runs. A continuous flow of ambient air through the rotor chamber keeps the rotor and samples cool. For applications requiring sub-ambient temperatures, the Spectrafuge™ 16M can be operated in a cold room.
The Spectrafuge™ 16M is supplied complete with an 18 place rotor for 1.5/2.0 ml tubes. Smaller tubes are accommodated by adapters (sold separately). The optional StripSpin™ rotor adapter holds two 8 x 0.2 ml strips, typically used for thermal cycling.
