Corning Mini Microcentrifuge (Blue Lid), 100–240V

The Corning Mini Microcentrifuge (Blue Lid) is a compact and efficient benchtop instrument designed for quick spin-downs of micro-samples. Operating at a fixed speed of 6,000 rpm (2,000 x g), it is ideal for applications such as micro-filtrations and basic separations. Once the sample area is loaded and the lid is closed, the rotor rapidly accelerates to 6,000 rpm. The centrifuge features a quick-release rotor system, eliminating the need for tools to exchange rotors, and an electronic braking system for rapid deceleration. Its rugged design ensures durability in crowded lab environments, while the dual lid switch provides safe operation. The ergonomic design allows for comfortable handling, making it a valuable tool for laboratories requiring efficient and reliable sample processing.
