Product Description
Spin down microtubes fast and quietly while saving precious bench space. Frontier 5000 Micro centrifuges handle DNA/RNA preparation, ultrafiltration and routine microtube work, and biocontainment BIOSEALS rotors allow safe processing of hazardous samples. Refrigerated R models add temperature control for heat-sensitive samples.
This listing is for OHAUS item number 30130867: Frontier 5000 Micro Centrifuge FC5515, 120V, 15,200 rpm, 21,953 x g. Each unit uses a brushless, quiet motor in a compact housing and a backlit LCD that keeps all key parameters visible and adjustable. Ten acceleration and ten deceleration settings, 99 program memories and run times from 10 seconds to 99 hours, continuous or quick spin, cover a wide range of protocols.
