12-position angle rotor 1015 – Power and reliability for your demanding centrifugation applications
The 12-position angle rotor 1015 from Hettich is a solution perfectly suited to the needs of modern laboratories for centrifuging 15 ml tubes. Designed to fit into the MIKRO 220 and 220 R centrifuge models, it offers the ideal balance between performance, robustness and safety. Thanks to its careful construction and high-level technical performance, it is the obvious choice for laboratories looking for reliable, durable and versatile equipment.
This rotor reaches a maximum speed of 6,000 rpm, generating a maximum relative centrifugal force (RCF) of 4,146 × g. This capacity makes it perfectly suited for standard protocols for separation, sample preparation or biological fluid processing. The 35° angle allows for optimal tube arrangement, limiting turbulence while ensuring rapid and uniform sedimentation of components.
The 1015 rotor can hold up to 12 x 15 ml tubes, but its compatibility with various tube diameters and lengths makes it particularly versatile. Thanks to the various adapters available, it can centrifuge tubes ranging in volume from 1.1 ml to 15 ml, with a wide variety of formats (blood, urine, conical or cylindrical tubes). It also adapts to several types of caps, including screw caps, giving it maximum flexibility in applications.
Designed for intensive use, this rotor also stands out for its safety in use. It is fully compatible with European safety standards (DIN EN 61010) and has been tested by TÜV. It is equipped with a rapid braking system, a hermetic seal and operates at a noise level of less than 60 dB(A), ensuring a high level of comfort in a laboratory environment. Its robust construction guarantees optimum durability, even with intensive use.
This rotor can operate at temperatures as low as -20 °C when used with the MIKRO 220 R refrigerated centrifuge. This makes it ideal for heat-sensitive samples, particularly in molecular biology, microbiology or biomedical research laboratories. Its intelligent design also facilitates cleaning and regular maintenance, helping to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.
