Ohaus FC5513R Refrigerated Microtube Centrifuge – High-Speed Cooling in a Compact Design
The Ohaus FC5513R Frontier is a refrigerated microtube centrifuge designed for high-performance applications in molecular biology, clinical diagnostics, and research labs. It offers a powerful combination of high-speed centrifugation and reliable temperature control, ensuring sample integrity for heat-sensitive procedures.
With a speed range of 200 to 14 500 rpm (17 157 × g max) and rapid acceleration, the FC5513R quickly processes microtubes while maintaining stable and uniform cooling. Its refrigeration system offers precise temperature settings from –20 °C to +40 °C, with fast pre-cooling to protect thermally sensitive samples before operation begins.
This model comes equipped with a rotor for 24 × 1.5/2.0 mL microtubes, and optional rotors and adapters are available for spin columns, hematocrit tubes, and sealed applications. The user-friendly touch‑wheel control and back-lit dual-line LCD display make it easy to set and monitor speed, RCF, time, temperature, and memory functions. With 99 programmable settings, repeat procedures become fast and reliable.
The centrifuge operates quietly at ≤ 56 ± 2 dB(A) and is built with multiple safety features including automatic lid lock, imbalance detection, quick stop, and mechanical lid latch. Its compact, stable design ensures it fits neatly into busy laboratory environments.
