The LC-8 series of laboratory centrifuges is uniquely designed to meet a wide range of applications in both the clinical and research laboratory. An eight-position rotor is included and is designed to directly accept 10 ml and 15 ml tubes (conical or round bottom), while additional adapters are also available for use with all popular blood collection and culturing tube sizes. Unlike most compact centrifuges in this class, the rotor can be easily removed from the chamber for cleaning.
The backlit liquid crystal display provides full control over the set operating time and rotational speed. Rotation speed can be set/viewed in rpm or rcf, and acceleration/deceleration levels can be easily adjusted in the advanced settings mode.
For safety, a digital microprocessor ensures that the lid is closed and the safety lid lock is activated before starting the centrifugation cycle. In addition, an advanced imbalance detection system continuously monitors balance and vibration, automatically stopping the rotor when imbalance is detected.
