Grants microfuge pcv 3000
Grants combined centrifuge PCV 3000
Combined centrifuge/vortex mixer PCV3000
The Grant bio Multi-spin PCV-3000 is a highly versatile and efficient variable-speed combined centrifuge/vortex mixer for programmed sequences of spin and mix operations or for independent centrifuging and vortex-mixing of multiple microtubes and 0.2 ml strips.
With tubes positioned in the rotor throughout the operation, Multi-spin can complete programmed spin-mix-spin sequences in significantly less time compared to individual instruments, typically 4 minutes for 100 tubes compared to 35 minutes with individual instruments - a dramatic time and cost saving.
In addition, spinning samples before and after mixing allows lower reagent volumes to be used. Because of its powerful G force and accurate control of spin and mix parameters, the Multi-spin can be used with volumes as low as 5 uL.
Spin speed: up to 3000 rpm - Timed spin operation: 1 second to 99 minutes, with automatic switch-off
- Timed vortex mixing: 1 to 20 seconds, with automatic switch-off
- Three-stage adjustment for vortex mixing speed
- Choice of interchangeable rotors for different microtube sizes/combinations and for 0.2 ml strips
- Multi-spin enables consecutive spin and mix phases of multiple tubes - tubes are loaded into the rotor for spinning and remain in position for vortex mixing, saving time and labour. In addition, lower reagent volumes can be used, providing a further saving.
- Simple push-buttons and a clear 2-line LCD status display enable accurate and repeatable setting of spin and mix levels and times.
- Spin and mix phases can be linked in sequences which can be repeated up to 999 times.
- The Multi-spin is supplied as standard with two interchangeable rotors for 12 and 24 microtubes. Optional accessory rotors allow for quick and easy changes of application.
- A safety interlock stops the rotor when the lid is opened to ensure you and your workplace remain safe.
- Compact design and extremely quiet in operation - fits neatly and unobtrusively into the workspace
