Versati™ Micro Centrifuge

Positioned as micro centrifuge, MCV and refrigerated MCR stand out with excellent feature and versatility. MCV and MCR have a capacity of up to 44 x 1.5/2.0ml and can accommodate 12 x 5ml reaction tube or 4 x 8-pcr strips per run. With hematocrit rotor, it can accommodate 24 x capillaries per run for the determination of the hematocrit value.

It is designed with compact size to save space in the lab and with low noise performance that is preferred in any working area. The powerful refrigeration system of MCR keeps samples at temperature for as low as 4^OC during a continuous run at 21380 x g.

Versati™ Tabletop Centrifuge

Distinct Control Panel and Intelligent Ecourage^TM Microprocessor Control System

Big rotary knob and buttons, convenient for rotation and operation.
Large LCD screen with clear indication of running condition including rotor, speed and time.
Operation panel is water-proof, can well protect the inner electrical components.
Microprocessor with speed self-tested system.

Genuine-Protec^TM Safety Lid Lock

Motor driven lid lock, ensures safety and reliability.
The lid can only be opened when rotor stops, and speed indicator is 0.
With electromagnetic lid, automatic and smooth lid release allows one-hand-operation.

V-balance™ Weight Imbalance Protection

Equipped with active weight imbalance-identification system. In case the rotor is not equally loaded, the drive will turn off during acceleration. The rotor decelerates to stop.

Diverse Choices of Rotors

Made of aluminum alloy.
Automatic rotor recognition function minimizes the need for the manual settings.
Powerful motor provides high RCF (Relative Centrifugal Force) up to 21380 x g for MCV/MCR, 21382 x g for TCV, and 28980 x g for TCR.
As many as 7 rotors with wide range capacity for MCV, 6 rotors for MCR, and 12 rotors for TCV/TCR to meet all your needs.

Integrated Design of Interior Centrifuge Chamber

The side plate and baseboard of centrifuge chamber are made by one-time punch forming of a whole piece of steel plate.
No dead angle within the chamber, easy to clean and can reduce pollution at the greatest possibility.

Wide Range of Temperature

Not only have a cooling function, but also a heating function. The temperature range is from -20^OC to +40^OC.

Maintenance-free, Brushless Motor

Equipped with German-originated motor, requiring neither bearing replacement nor change oil.
No carbon brush, low interference. Electric- spark-free that ensures no interference to radio equipment.
Low noise and smooth operation with superior mechanism design.
Prolongs the lifespan and save maintenance cost.

Environment-Friendly Refrigeration Technology

Designed with CFC-free refrigeration system for refrigerated models (MCR/TCR), cause no harm to the atmosphere.

Emergency Switch

In case of power failure or malfunction, the lid of the centrifuge can be opened manually via the emergency switch in order to protect your samples.

Polished and Practical Appearance

External surface are powder coated Esco Isocide^TM to eliminate 99.9% of surface bacteria within 24 hours of exposure. This technology ensures relatively aseptic condition.
Ensures healthier, safer and cleaner laboratory environment.

Centrifuges are important laboratory equipment in most laboratories. To meet all needed applications, accessories enable to maximize the use of the centrifuge. To increase the versatility and performance, rotors and adapters are made available.

Rotors

Rotors design can be divided to fixed-angle and swing-bucket. Fixed-angle centrifuges can hold the container at a constant angle relative to the central axis. Swing-bucket centrifuges have a hinge where the sample containers are attached to the central rotor. Choice of the rotor and lid will depend on the laboratory application.
