The Ohaus Frontier FC5916 is a multipurpose centrifuge built for blood collection tubes, plasma and serum separation, cell culture, and industrial or pharmaceutical QC. It reaches speeds of 200 rpm – 16,000 rpm and a maximum relative centrifugal force of 24,325 g, giving reliable separation performance on the benchtop. The rotor accepts a maximum capacity of 4 x 750 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 ≤63±2 dB(A), and the unit weighs 187 lb (85 kg), so you can plan for the right spot in a shared lab space before it arrives. Labman stocks the Ohaus Frontier FC5916 for laboratories across Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, with rotors and accessories sized to your protocol.
