Heraeus Primo R: A High-Performance Refrigerated Centrifuge for Maximum Flexibility
The Heraeus Primo R centrifuge from Thermo Scientific is a cutting-edge solution designed to meet the strictest requirements of medical and research laboratories. Combining power, precision, and ergonomics, it offers remarkable adaptability thanks to its compatibility with various rotors and centrifugation tubes.
One of the key advantages of the Heraeus Primo R is its automatic rotor recognition system, which automatically adjusts parameters to optimize efficiency and safety. This technology reduces handling errors and ensures reproducible performance, essential for sensitive protocols. Its EASYcontrol II interface, intuitive and easy to clean, allows quick access to speed and time settings.
Equipped with a brushless induction motor, this centrifuge ensures a long lifespan and quiet operation, with noise levels below 60 dB—ideal for a pleasant working environment. Additionally, its electronic imbalance detection system automatically stops the cycle in case of incorrect loading or imbalance caused by tube breakage, ensuring optimal user safety.
With a maximum capacity of 6 x 50 mL in a fixed-angle rotor or 4 x 100 mL in a swinging bucket rotor, the Primo R is perfectly suited to various laboratory needs. It offers a temperature range from -9°C to 40°C, a crucial feature for preserving temperature-sensitive samples. Its rapid acceleration and nine braking curves allow precise control of centrifugation, facilitating the processing of delicate samples.
The Heraeus Primo R is used in various scientific fields, including cell sedimentation (bacteria, yeast, algae), blood and urine analysis, sample preparation for HPLC and capillary electrophoresis, as well as DNA and protein precipitate separation. Its galvanized steel chassis ensures increased durability, and its secure lid lock prevents accidental openings.
The Heraeus Primo R is a refrigerated centrifuge that combines power, safety, and flexibility—an ideal choice for laboratories seeking a reliable and high-performance solution for their centrifugation applications.
