MIKRO 220 R - Benchtop Microlitre Centrifuge

The MIKRO 220 R is a compact benchtop centrifuge that is used for microlitre applications The centrifuge can hold up to 60 x 1.5 / 2.0 ml tubes per run. It has a maximum acceleration of 31,500 x g and delivers results very fast.

The cooling function enables temperatures to be set anywhere in the range -20 °C to +40 °C. The MIKRO 220 R also has a fast cool function.

Its extensive range of accessories allows centrifugation of tubes with a volume up to 50 ml.

Its outstanding performance makes the MIKRO 220 R an invaluable tool for sample preparation in the fields of gene sequencing, virology, bacteriology and routine applications in clinical laboratories.

Its quiet operation with a low level of vibration means that noise levels are kept low.

Advantages

• Outstanding centrifugation results within a very short time
• Very short run-up and run-down times without causing re-suspension of the sediment
• High RCF: 31,514 with an angle rotor and 18,516 in a swing-out rotor
• Maximum capacity: 60 x 1.5 / 2 ml
• Comprehensive range of rotors
• Accessories that are impermeable to aerosols, autoclavable and phenol-resistant
• The operating and display features of the MIKRO 220 R are ergonomic in design
• Pulse key for short centrifugation runs
• 9 braking and start-up ramps and run-down without braking can be selected; ramp 9 represents the shortest braking and start-up times
• Large display which is easy to read, showing the current status of all parameters when the centrifuge is running
• Quiet operation and low vibration
• The robust construction of the centrifuge and the rotors ensures a long service life even under intensive use
• The cooling function enables temperatures to be set anywhere in the range -20 °C to +40 °C, with fast cool function
