Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ The Spectrafuge 16M is the perfect, high speed, compact microcentrifuge. A brushless, maintenance free motor provides extremely fast acceleration and deceleration of the 18 place rotor and makes the Spectrafuge 16M the quietest microcentrifuge in its class._x000D_ Speed and time are set with the control knobs on the front panel of the unit. A "quick" button allows for momentary runs. A continuous flow of ambient air through the rotor chamber keeps the rotor and samples cool. For applications requiring sub-ambient temperatures, the Spectrafuge 16M can be operated in a cold room._x000D_ The Spectrafuge 16M is supplied complete with an 18 place rotor for 1.5/2.0 mL tubes. Smaller tubes are accommodated by adapters (sold separately). The optional StripSpin rotor adapter holds two 8 x 0.2 mL strips, typically used for thermal cycling._x000D_ • Brushless, maintenance-free motor_x000D_ • Exceptionally quiet and cool operation_x000D_ • High maxium speed/g-force_x000D_ • Extremely small footprint_x000D_ • Speed range: 1,000 rpm to 14,000 rpm_x000D_ • Maximum RCF: 16,000 x g_x000D_ • Acceleration to max. speed: 10 sec_x000D_ • Deceleration from max. speed: 9 sec_x000D_ • Maximum capacity: 18 x 1.5/2.0 mL_x000D_ • Timer: 1 to 30 minutes or continuous "quick" button for momentary operation_x000D_ • Dimensions (WxDxH): 8.25 in.
