Technical data & description

The ZK 496 is a high-capacity floor centrifuge, also available as a particularly space-saving undercounter unit. Both variants are equipped with a powerful cooling system to keep your samples cool. Its enormous loading volume allows centrifugation of a large number of individual tubes, up to 4 x 1000 ml. The application range of the ZK 496 extends from clinical applications through research to industrial applications, as well as in blood banks where blood bags are used. In addition to the multifunctional swing rotor, high-speed angle rotors with a maximum capacity of 6 x 250 ml or 4 x 500 ml are also available! This allows rapid and efficient sample separation in high-throughput laboratories. • Brushless induction drive • chemically resistant gray painted sheet steel housing • digital display for set and actual values of speed/RCF, temperature and elapsed time • Speed adjustment in 10 rpm increments from 200 rpm to 10,500 rpm • Digital elapsed time display and elapsed time presetting from 10 sec - 99 hrs 59 min or continuous run • Quick button for short-term runs with digital seconds display • 10 acceleration and deceleration profiles • Program memory for up to 99 complete runs • Comfortable "Hermle-Multi-Control" control system • Automatic rotor recognition and speed limitation • Imbalance detection and automatic shutdown • Maintenance-free induction motor • Motorized lid lock • Temperature range from -20°C to +40°C in 1°C increments • CFC-free cooling system • Pre-cooling program • Acoustic signal at run end • Microprocessor control • Emergency unlock • Stainless steel chamber • CFC-free refrigeration (-20° to +40°C) • Autoclavable and hermetically sealed rotors • Standby cooling • Unbraked coast-down possible • Display of set and actual values • Presetting of speed or RCF in 50/10 increments • Run time presetting from 10 sec to 99 h and 59 min and continuous run function • Easy operation via central potentiometer Dimensions: (W x H x D): 62 x 98 x 69 cm Weight: 190 kg Temperature range: -20°C to 40°C Runtime: 59 min 50 s / 10 s increments, 99 h 59 min / 1 min increments * Device complies with CE requirements * Built according to IEC 61010 and 61010-2
