FAQs of REFRIGERATED CENTRIFUGE:
Q: How does the RC-16 refrigerated centrifuge maintain sample integrity during high-speed operation?
A: The RC-16 achieves reliable separation and maintains sample integrity by offering precise temperature control (-20C to +40C) via its microprocessor-based system and stainless steel rotor chamber. This prevents unwanted temperature fluctuations even at its maximum speed of 15,000 rpm or 21,000 x g.
Q: What safety features are integrated into this centrifuge for laboratory use?
A: The RC-16 is equipped with imbalance detection to halt operation in case of uneven sample loading, an emergency lid release for quick access in critical situations, and an over-temperature cutoff to safeguard against overheating, ensuring user and sample safety.
Q: What is the process for programming the speed and timer settings on this model?
A: Programming is managed through its digital control panel with LED/LCD display. Users can set the speed between 500 and 15,000 rpm and the timer from 0 to 99 minutes with programmable increments, offering flexibility for various centrifugation protocols.
Q: Where is the RC-16 centrifuge commonly utilized and who are its main users?
A: This model is widely used in clinical laboratories, research institutions, and blood banks. Typical users include laboratory technicians, clinicians, researchers, and blood bank personnel who require precise, reliable sample separation.
Q: What benefits does the CFC-free refrigeration system offer?
A: Using a CFC-free refrigeration system, the RC-16 minimizes environmental impact while providing reliable cooling. This ensures sample integrity and compliance with modern ecological standards.
Q: Can both angle and swing-out rotors be used in this unit, and what capacity does it support?
A: Yes, the RC-16 supports both angle and swing-out rotors, accommodating up to 16 x 15 ml tubes or a total chamber capacity of 4 liters, offering versatility for various sample types and volumes.
Q: What are the advantages of the microprocessor-based control system with digital display?
A: The microprocessor-based system allows precise, programmable control over centrifuge parameters. The LED/LCD digital display provides clear, real-time feedback, enhancing user confidence and protocol accuracy.
