Auto rotor recognition
Microchip technology allows for
automatic rotor recognition and confirmation once centrifugation has commenced,
including rotational speed calculation and optimum temperature control. Besides, new rotors can be easily loaded onto
the on-board database as they are introduced.
Fast Acceleration and Deceleration
The innovative, heavy duty, frequency
conversion motor is purposely designed to handle the heaviest of rotors with
abundant power output for smooth, quick and efficient acceleration to terminal
velocity under fully laden conditions.
Furthermore, 9 pre-set acceleration and 9 pre-set deceleration profiles
ensure the right conditions are met for the most precious and vibration
sensitive samples.
Powerful Refrigeration
A powerful non -CFC compressor cools
the chamber quickly whilst maintaining the rotor at set temperature during
centrifugation. Twin cooling fans - one
each for the compressor and motor respectively - dissipate heat quickly to
improve cooling efficiency and extend motor life.
Actual Sample (Rotor) Temperature
Measurement and Display
The temperature displayed on the LCD
panel during centrifugation is that of the rotor (and hence samples) and
neither the temperature of the chamber nor the temperature at the sensor. This allows for more precise, reproducible
and efficient experimentation.
Safety Features
· Non-contact imbalance detection and shutdown based on the run profile for
each rotor across its entire speed range rather than the inferior and
conventional micro-switch detector.
· Guard barrier
· Dual lid electronic interlock
· Auto-hinge for improved sealing and door opening
· Over speed detection and shutdown
· Motor overheat detection and shutdown
User Friendly Operation and Information
Rich Display
Parameters are quickly and effortlessly
inputted through the uncomplicated touch pad interface and displayed on the
brightly backlit and easy to read LCD panel.
The LCD panel concurrently displays all experimentation parameters
including diagnostic information as it occurs.
Quiet Operation
Noise abating insulation in the console
including lower noise fans combine to reduce the audible operating noise to
62dB.
