Ohaus Frontier FC5515 High-Speed Microtube Centrifuge

€2.190,00 excl. VAT

Estimated delivery time: 2-3 weeks

The Ohaus Frontier FC5515 is a microtube centrifuge built for molecular biology, DNA/RNA and protein workflows, and clinical sample preparation. It reaches speeds of 200 rpm – 15,200 rpm and a maximum relative centrifugal force of 21,953 g, giving reliable separation performance on the benchtop. The rotor accepts a maximum capacity of 44 x 1.5 / 2.0ml; 12 x 5 ml, so you can size the run to the sample volumes your lab actually processes. Automatic rotor recognition, a motorized lid lock, and imbalance and over-speed protection keep operators safe during every run. Noise stays at ≤60±2 dB(A), and the unit weighs 38 lb (17 kg), so you can plan for the right spot in a shared lab space before it arrives. Labman stocks the Ohaus Frontier FC5515 for laboratories across Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, with rotors and accessories sized to your protocol.
