Product Description
Compact, quiet and powerful, the Hermle Z216-M is built for the modern molecular biology lab. It reaches 15,000 rpm (21,631 xg) and offers ten rotor options, including a unique 44-place dual-row rotor that nearly doubles the capacity of a standard microcentrifuge.
Rotors accept 0.2, 0.5, 1.5 and 2.0 mL tubes, PCR strips, hematocrit capillaries and 5 mL tubes. Speed is set and displayed in rpm or rcf, with saved programs and adjustable acceleration and braking. Rotors are sold separately. Order it from LIGHT LABS and keep your equipment running at its best.
Key Features
- Automatic rotor identification – the centrifuge recognizes the installed rotor and limits speed to its maximum
- Speed in rpm or rcf – set and display either value
- Program memory – store frequently used runs
- Maintenance-free induction motor – quiet, long service life
- Safety systems – automatic lid lock and imbalance detection with automatic shutdown
- Ten rotor options – including a 44 x 1.5/2.0 mL dual-row rotor
