Used SORVALL RC 5 #137842 for sale

SORVALL RC 5 centrifuge is a durable, reliable and high-performance research-grade and general-purpose centrifuge designed to meet the needs of laboratories. It has a maximum speed of up to 15,000 rpm, allowing for rapid processing and separation of samples. The self-contained equipment has a temperature range of -20 to 40°C and is suitable for both short-term and extended runs. RC 5 has a wide variety of rotors available, making it ideal for applications such as high-speed centrifugation, density gradient centrifugation, cell harvesting, and sample isolation. The full-color LCD touch screen can display run parameters and allow users to configure the parameters to meet their specific needs. The drive system is a brushless DC motor, which allows for precise speed and acceleration/deceleration control. SORVALL RC 5 has three acceleration/deceleration programmes available: constant acceleration/deceleration, prograde and ab-start. It also has various safety features to protect samples and operators, such as the motor overload protection and the rotor balance monitor. Additionally, the rotor chamber is compliant with acoustic noise level regulations. The centrifuge offers two different types of mixing - fixed angle mixing, and angle adjustment. The fixed angle mode is ideal for quick mixing of samples such as in density gradient centrifugation, while the angle adjustment mode is ideal for more sensitive samples such as cells. In addition to mixing modes, RC 5 can be linked to thermal cyclers, allowing for the control of temperature and time in the centrifuge chamber. SORVALL RC 5 has added convenience features such as a built-in power supply, allowing the user to plug the centrifuge into most commonly used power sources in the lab. Additionally, the unit can be easily moved around thanks to its convenient casters. The centrifuge is supplied with an initial run test card to check performance periodically and to ensure that the unit is functioning properly. Overall, RC 5 centrifuge is a reliable and robust centrifuge that can be used for a wide range of applications in the lab. It provides an intuitive control machine for easy operation, as well as various safety features for sample protection. Its wide range of rotors and temperatures, along with features such as fixed and variable angle mixing and linkage to thermal cyclers makes it ideal for different laboratory applications.
