Outfit your lab with a centrifuge that meets your needs. The RS-101 Microcentrifuge is ideal for classrooms, researchers, or personal use. Its compact size, powerful motor, and ease-of-use design provide the quality you desire at the price you want. Fast enough for DNA research but inexpensive enough for any lab or researcher! Large, high-capacity, easy-load rotor! Delivers 1735 to 6238 relative centrifugal force!

Features
Large, 16 position capacity rotor accommodates 1.5-2.0 ml tubes
Each hole is clearly numbered
Easy change rotor simply snaps on/off without screws or nuts to lose
Extra rotors available at a reasonable price to accommodate large classrooms
Easy load rotor allows tubes to be loaded and unloaded in a vertical position while spinning in a 45° position
Large, easy-to-use control knob with easy-to-read graphics indicating RPM and G force
Forced air ventilation assures specimens, rotor, and motor stay cool, even during extended runs

Performance
Four position switch: Off Pulse 6,000 RPM 10,000 RPM
Provides 1735 to 6238 relative centrifugal force (RCF)
Heavy duty, all-ball-bearing, 2.7 lb. motor smoothes out vibrations while running cool
Oversized 10 mm shaft will not bend from abuse or imbalance
Rapid slow down, from 10,000 RPM to zero in approximately 20 seconds

Construction
Compact, efficient rounded shape saves on scarce bench space
Tough, high-impact housing will not dent, rust or chip
Large, clear cover for complete rotor and tube visibility
Oversized soft rubber base:
Efficiently absorbs vibration and noise transmitted to work surface
Stops 'bench walking'
Resists tipping
Absorbs impact from careless handling

Safety
Interlock switch cuts power until cover is locked in place
Instant-stop function electrically brakes rotor within two seconds when cover is rotated while rotor is in motion
Double electrically-insulated construction
