A staple of all laboratory environments, tabletop centrifuges (sometimes referred to as benchtop centrifuges or simply lab centrifuges) facilitate harvesting and separating particulates in suspension. They are typically used in the laboratory by biologists, chemists and biochemists alike for rapid separation of precipitates from reaction mixtures or, at higher accelerations, for sedimentation of cell membrane fractions. Featured compact centrifuges can be divided into several categories based on applications and rotor type. Rotors can have angle-fixed or swing head configurations that are typically interchangeable. Maximum speeds range from 4-40,000 RPMs. Models offer a wide range of acceleration and brake rates, and some offer refrigeration.

Description | The Spectrafuge™ 6C has been designed for quick production of PPP (platelet poor plasma) and PRP (platelet rich plasma) as well as other applications in the clinical or research laboratory.
The included 6 place rotor is capable of running round or conical bottom 15ml or 10ml tubes. Adapters for The Spectrafuge™ 6C has been designed for quick production of PPP (platelet poor plasma) and PRP (platelet rich plasma) as well as other applications in the clinical or research laboratory.
The included 6 place rotor is capable of running round or conical bottom 15ml or 10ml tubes. Adapters for smaller tube sizes are available separately.
The control panel of the centrifuge features easy turn knobs and large digital displays for time and speed. Time can be set as low as 30 seconds and to the "On" position for a continuous run.
The Spectrafuge 6C is the smallest centrifuge in its class. The 8x9 inch footprint makes it ideal for almost any laboratory and it can easily be transported from lab to lab. - High Speed, up to 6500rpm/4000 xg
- Digital Control and Accuracy
- Small printfoot, 8 x 9.5in.
- Accepts all common blood tubes and 6 x 15ml conical tubes
