Multifuge 1SR: The Compact, Versatile, and Ergonomic Centrifuge for Your Lab

The Multifuge 1SR is a cutting-edge laboratory centrifuge designed to accommodate a wide variety of applications. With its powerful performance, ergonomic design, and advanced features, it is an ideal choice for labs seeking to optimize their workflow while ensuring precise results and maximum sample safety.

One of the key strengths of the Multifuge 1SR is its versatile rotor system. It includes swing-bucket rotors capable of holding tubes and bottles from 0.2 mL to 250 mL, as well as plates for applications like PCR, MTP, cell culture, and Deepwell. The centrifuge also features fixed-angle rotors, which are ideal for high-speed applications involving tubes from 0.2 mL to 85 mL. With a maximum speed of 20,913 × g (14,000 rpm), the Multifuge 1SR is suitable for demanding research and clinical tasks, delivering reliable, reproducible results.

The low-profile design of the Multifuge 1SR enhances the user experience by offering an access height of just 29 cm, making sample loading and unloading easy and stress-free. The centrifuge’s soft-touch lid closure eliminates the need for excessive force, reducing strain on the operator’s wrists during repeated use. The low lid opening height allows the centrifuge to be conveniently placed under shelves or in crowded spaces without compromising ease of use.

The compact footprint of the Multifuge 1SR makes it an excellent space-saving solution for busy labs. Despite its small size, it offers outstanding versatility with a broad selection of rotors and adapters, making it possible to handle a wide range of sample formats, from tubes to plates and bottles.

Temperature-sensitive samples are kept safe with the cooling system of the Multifuge 1SR. It operates within a temperature range of -9 °C to 40 °C and includes features such as FastTemp for rapid pre-cooling and continuous cooling, which maintains a constant temperature even after the run has been completed. This ensures that samples remain stable, reducing the risk of degradation.

The Dynamic Compressor Control (DCC) technology optimizes cooling performance, ensuring that the centrifuge can maintain a consistent 4 °C even at high speeds (e.g., 11,000 rpm with rotors F-34-6-38 and FA-45-6-30). The centrifuge also includes an ECO shut-off function, which automatically engages after eight hours of inactivity. This feature not only reduces energy consumption but also extends the life of the compressor, making the Multifuge 1SR an eco-friendly and cost-effective choice.

Safety is a priority in the design of the Heraeus Multifuge 1SR. The centrifuge is equipped with automatic rotor recognition and imbalance detection, ensuring that the system operates safely even during high-speed centrifugation. These features minimize the risk of operational errors, protecting both the user and the samples.

The centrifuge offers 35 user-programmable settings, allowing researchers to customize centrifugation protocols according to specific application needs. With 10 acceleration and braking ramps, it provides precise control over centrifugation processes, ensuring smooth operation and minimizing potential disruptions during sample handling.

The quiet operation of the Multifuge 1SR creates a more comfortable work environment, reducing noise pollution in the lab. This is especially beneficial for labs where multiple instruments are operating simultaneously, helping to maintain a peaceful and productive atmosphere.
