• A versatile range of compact, modern benchtop centrifuges from Grant bio for a variety of biomedical, biochemical and life science applications requiring spinning or a combination of spinning and mixing for microtubes and microtitre plates. Suitable for use in cold rooms and incubators (operating temperature range 4 to 40°C). Combi-spin PCV-2400 A cost-effective fixed-speed combined centrifuge/vortex mixer for combined or independent centrifuge and mixing applications of microtubes and 0.2 ml microtube strips in low volume applications. Centrifugation 2800rpm at 50Hz and 3500rpm at 60Hz The vortex cup emerges through an opening in the closed lid, enabling individual tubes to be mixed while a full load of tubes is spinning. Very simple to operate – use the left-hand button to select continuous or short spin. A safety interlock stops the rotor when the lid is opened to ensure you and your workplace remain safe. The Combi-spin is supplied as standard with two interchangeable rotors for 12×1.5ml and 12×0.5ml + 12×0.2ml microtubes. Optional accessory rotors – for 16 and 18 microtubes and for two 8-well 0.2.ml strips – allow for quick and easy changes of application. Multi-spin PCV-6000 A variable-speed combined centrifuge/vortex mixer for programmed sequences of spin and mix operations or for independent centrifuging and vortex-mixing of multiple microtubes. Centrifugation speed 1000 to 6000rpm Multi-spin enables consecutive spin and mix phases of multiple tubes – tubes are loaded into the rotor for spinning and remain in position for vortex mixing, saving time and labour. In addition, lower reagent volumes can be used, providing a further saving. Simple push-buttons and a clear 2-line LCD status display enable accurate and repeatable setting of spin and mix levels and times. Spin and mix phases can be linked in sequences which can be repeated up to 999 times. he Multi-spin™ is supplied as standard with two interchangeable rotors for 12 x 1.5 ml and 12 x 0.5 ml + 12 x 0.2 ml microtubes. Optional accessory rotors – for 16 and 18 microtubes and for two 8 well 0.2 ml strips – allow for quick and easy changes of application. A safety interlock stops the rotor when the lid is opened to ensure you and your workplace remain safe. Compact design and extremely quiet in operation – fits neatly and unobtrusively into the workspace Applications Life science – genetic engineering research (for PCR-diagnostics experiments). Units can be used in microbiological, biochemical, clinical laboratories and industrial biotechnological laboratories.Centrifuges – models and specifications
