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. 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. • Brushless motor...maintenance-free • Exceptionally small footprint • High maximum speed (14,000rpm/16,000 x g) • Extremely quiet operation • Complete with rotor (18 x 1.5/2.0ml) • Available in 5 colors • 1-year warranty
