Benchmark C3200 LC-8 Plus 5000 Centrifuge w/ 8 x 15ml Rotor is a high-speed, compact benchtop centrifuge designed for clinical and research laboratories requiring higher g-forces. With a top speed of 5,000 RPM and RCF of up to 3,070 x g, this centrifuge offers powerful performance in a small footprint.
Compatible with a range of blood collection and culture tubes (via optional adapters), and featuring a removable rotor for easy cleaning, the LC-8 Plus 5000 is both user-friendly and versatile. The back-lit LCD control panel provides precise digital control over time and speed (RPM or RCF), and the system’s advanced microprocessor ensures safe and reliable operation at all times.
Features:
- Accepts 8 x 15ml tubes (conical or round-bottom)
- Supports both RPM and RCF readouts for flexible lab use
- Removable rotor simplifies cleaning and maintenance
- Back-lit LCD for clear parameter monitoring
- Programmable run time: 20 sec to 99 minutes or continuous
- Advanced safety lock to prevent operation with lid open
- Automatic imbalance detection halts operation if uneven load is detected
- Compact, durable housing ideal for space-conscious labs
High-Speed Versatility
Designed for demanding environments, the LC-8 Plus extends the capabilities of the standard LC-8 by offering faster acceleration, higher speeds, and greater centrifugal force. It is the ideal solution for applications requiring enhanced separation performance without increasing the unit size.
