4-15 Centrifuge – A Synergy of Precision, Power, and Innovation
The Sigma 4-15 centrifuge is much more than just a laboratory device. Designed with cutting-edge technology and unmatched robustness, it is built to meet the demands of modern laboratories across a wide range of applications, from biology and chemistry to industrial fields. Whether you're a research technician, engineer, or scientist, the Sigma 4-15 delivers optimal performance thanks to its versatility and exceptional precision.
The 4-15 is equipped with an intuitive control system that stands out for its simplicity and efficiency. With a single control knob paired with a backlit LCD screen, using the centrifuge becomes effortless. Whether the user is a novice or expert, they can quickly set the centrifugation conditions with high precision, thanks to clear and readable information on the display. The rotation speeds can be adjusted precisely within a range of 100 to 13,500 rpm, with an impressive accuracy of 1 rpm.
This level of control allows the centrifugation process to be adapted to various types of samples, whether for cell separation, preparation of chemical suspensions, or handling complex fluids. Additionally, the single knob enables smooth navigation between different parameters, ensuring quick and efficient handling, even for less experienced operators.
The Sigma 4-15 is not only easy to use but is also equipped with innovative technologies that enhance the quality of results. At the heart of its system is a brushless motor, designed to be entirely maintenance-free. This type of motor not only ensures exceptional durability but also provides increased energy efficiency and quiet operation, even at high speeds. The motor runs smoothly, even at its maximum speed of 13,500 rpm, significantly reducing vibrations and noise, thus improving working conditions in the laboratory.
The integrated microcontroller manages the preselection of essential parameters such as speed, gravitational force, rotor type, and centrifugation duration. This allows for precise and repeatable experiment setups, ensuring reproducible results. With its 20 pre-configured acceleration and deceleration curves, the user can adapt the centrifuge's performance to protect delicate samples, particularly during deceleration. These curves allow users to select either gentle or rapid acceleration, depending on the specific needs of the samples, preventing disruptions or potential damage.
Another key feature of the 4-15 is its commitment to safety. One of the main challenges with centrifuges is ensuring that rotors do not exceed their maximum speed limits. The magnetic rotor identification function integrated into the 4-15 eliminates this risk by automatically recognizing the installed rotor type and adjusting the maximum speed accordingly. This mechanism not only reduces the risk of equipment damage but also protects users and ensures the safety of samples.
Regarding safety regulations, the Sigma 4-15 complies with international IEC 1010 standards, meaning it meets strict user protection and electrical safety requirements. This ensures that the centrifuge can be used with confidence in any laboratory, anywhere in the world.
With a maximum capacity of 4 x 500 ml, the 4-15 is suitable for high-volume applications, making it an ideal choice for laboratories handling large quantities of fluids. The large capacity enables centrifugation of significant batches, reducing the number of necessary operations and increasing overall laboratory efficiency.
The centrifuge's dimensions (405 x 490 x 685 mm) and its weight of 82 kg make it a robust yet compact device that fits easily into any laboratory, regardless of available space. This design allows for use in various environments, from scientific research to clinical analysis, and even industrial applications, offering a great degree of versatility.
With its unique combination of power, precision, ease of use, and safety, the 4-15 centrifuge stands as a must-have choice for demanding laboratories, eager to work with cutting-edge equipment.
