Product information
Fast Microliter Centrifugation for Laboratory and Research
The Spectrafuge 16M is a compact microcentrifuge for laboratories that require fast separation processes with small sample volumes. With the 18-place rotor, it is suitable for molecular biology, clinical, and biochemical applications in which 1.5/2.0 ml reaction tubes are processed. The device is also well suited for research and routine laboratories due to its compact design.
The centrifuge reaches up to 14,000 rpm or 16,000 x g and is continuously adjustable in the range of 1,000 to 14,000 rpm. The brushless motor ensures minimal operating noise (55 dB(A)), low sample heating, and maintenance-free operation. Short acceleration (10 sec.) and braking times (9 sec.) as well as the "quick" button enable efficient short-term runs.
The Spectrafuge 16M offers reliable microliter centrifugation with low maintenance effort and a compact design. Matching accessories can also be found in the Refrigeration Technology or Cryotechnology sections. Request a quote now and optimize your laboratory processes!
