FAQs

1. What is the maximum sample volume that can be processed in the centrifuge?

The maximum sample volume depends on the type of rotor used with the centrifuge. Typical rotors can accommodate sample volumes ranging from 0.2 mL (microcentrifuge tubes) to 50 mL (conical tubes) or larger for specialized rotors. It is important to check the centrifuge's specifications and rotor compatibility to ensure that the sample volume does not exceed the recommended limits, which could affect centrifugation efficiency and safety.

2. How to balance the centrifuge before operation?

Proper balancing is critical for safe and effective centrifuge operation: 1) Ensure that all sample tubes have the same volume and weight; 2) Place the tubes symmetrically in the rotor, opposite each other; 3) For odd numbers of samples, use a balance tube filled with the same volume of appropriate solution; 4) Check that the rotor is properly seated and secured in the centrifuge; 5) Avoid overloading the rotor beyond its maximum capacity.

3. What is the difference between relative centrifugal force (RCF) and revolutions per minute (RPM)?

RCF is a measure of the centrifugal force applied to the sample, expressed in multiples of gravity (x g), and depends on both the RPM and the radius of the rotor. RPM is a measure of the rotor's rotation speed in revolutions per minute. The relationship between RCF and RPM is given by the formula: RCF = 1.118 × 10^-5 × r × RPM² (where r is the rotor radius in centimeters). For most applications, RCF is the preferred parameter as it directly relates to the separation efficiency, regardless of rotor size.

4. How to maintain the centrifuge to ensure long service life?

Regular maintenance includes: 1) Cleaning the rotor and chamber after each use to remove sample spills and debris; 2) Inspecting the rotor for cracks, corrosion, or wear before each use; 3) Lubricating moving parts according to the manufacturer's recommendations; 4) Calibrating the speed and temperature controls annually or after major service; 5) Ensuring proper ventilation around the centrifuge to prevent overheating; 6) Storing the centrifuge in a clean, dry environment when not in use.

5. What safety precautions should be taken when using the centrifuge?

Important safety precautions include: 1) Always balance the sample tubes properly before operation; 2) Ensure the rotor is correctly installed and secured; 3) Do not open the centrifuge lid while the rotor is still spinning; 4) Use appropriate personal protective equipment (gloves, goggles) when handling samples and cleaning the equipment; 5) Avoid overloading the centrifuge beyond its maximum capacity; 6) Regularly inspect the centrifuge for any signs of damage or malfunction and discontinue use if any issues are found.

1. What is the maximum speed and accuracy of the Low Speed Centrifuge , and why does it matter in lab operations?

Low Speed Centrifuge delivers a maximum speed of 5000 revolutions per minute (rpm) with an impressive accuracy of ±10 rpm. This precise speed control ensures reliable and reproducible results, which are vital in experiments requiring strict adherence to protocol, such as blood separation, plasma analysis, or biochemical sample clarification. Accurate speed also protects sensitive biological samples from mechanical damage, contributing to better sample integrity and downstream analysis quality.

2. How does the Low Speed Centrifuge enable user-friendly operation during active runs?

One of the defining features of the Low Speed Centrifuge is its waterproof touch keypad, which allows users to adjust parameters even during an ongoing centrifugation cycle. This capability, paired with a clear display, provides a responsive and intuitive interface for real-time monitoring and fine-tuning of settings like speed, time, and . This flexibility is highly beneficial in dynamic lab environments where conditions or protocols may change quickly and require on-the-fly adjustments.

3. What kind of motor and control system powers the Low Speed Centrifuge , and how does this benefit performance?

Low Speed Centrifuge is equipped with a variable frequency motor controlled by a sophisticated microprocessor system. This combination allows for smooth acceleration and deceleration across 20 different profiles, minimizing vibration and protecting delicate samples from sudden force shifts. The system also supports up to 100 program slots, allowing users to store and recall routine procedures efficiently—perfect for high-throughput labs or institutions with multiple users.

4. What makes the design of the Low Speed Centrifuge durable and suitable for frequent, long-term laboratory use?

Built with a corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel chamber, our Low Speed Centrifuge is made to withstand rigorous lab use. The steel body offers both structural integrity and easy maintenance, making it suitable for handling clinical samples, biological fluids, and chemical substances without risk of chamber degradation. Additionally, the rotors are fully autoclavable, supporting sterile procedures and ensuring longevity in biosafety-level workflows.
