Ohaus FC5513 Microtube Centrifuge with 24 x 1.5/2.0 ml BIOSEALS Rotor
€1.800,00 excl. VAT
The Ohaus Frontier FC5513 is a microtube centrifuge built for molecular biology, DNA/RNA and protein workflows, and clinical sample preparation. It reaches speeds of 200 rpm – 13,500 rpm and a maximum relative centrifugal force of 17,317 g, giving reliable separation performance on the benchtop. The rotor accepts a maximum capacity of 24 x 1.5 / 2.0 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 28.9 lb (13.1 kg), so you can plan for the right spot in a shared lab space before it arrives. This configuration ships with the 30472302 – Angle rotor 24 x 1.5/2.0 ml BIOSEALS rotor already fitted, so it is ready to run out of the box. Labman stocks the Ohaus Frontier FC5513 for laboratories across Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, with rotors and accessories sized to your protocol.
