Hettich EBA 270: Optimal separation performance for demanding clinical environments
The EBA 270 centrifuge from Hettich is a high-performance solution for healthcare facilities seeking fast and reliable separation of biological samples. Developed specifically for medical applications, it is equipped with a 6-place free-swing rotor, enabling efficient processing of blood and urine tubes with a volume of up to 15 ml. Its ability to reach a rotation speed of 4,000 rpm, generating a relative centrifugal force of 2,254 RCF, ensures precise separation, even for samples containing a separation gel.
Its compact design (326 x 400 x 239 mm) and low weight of approximately 14 kg make it easy to integrate into any laboratory or medical practice where space is at a premium. The EBA 270 is particularly quiet, with a maximum noise level of only 51 dB(A), helping to maintain a pleasant working environment. Its robust design, including a plastic housing and metal cover with viewing window, ensures durability and safe use. The stainless steel inner chamber is resistant to chemicals and easy to clean, extending the service life of the device.
The EBA 270 is very easy to operate thanks to its backlit control panel displaying all values in real time and intuitive membrane keypad controls. A pulse button allows immediate start of a short cycle, ideal for quick applications. The centrifuge also has two selectable deceleration speeds, allowing the stop time to be adapted to the type of sample being centrifuged.
Safety and reliability are at the heart of the device's design, with features such as a one-hand lid lock, lid drop protection, manual emergency opening, and automatic shut-off in case of detected imbalance. The braking system ensures a smooth stop of the samples, preserving the integrity of sensitive substances.
This centrifuge is suitable for a wide range of clinical applications and complies with international standards such as EN/IEC 61326-1, Class B and FCC Class B, as well as the new IVDR regulations.
The Hettich EBA 270 combines remarkable compactness, centrifugation performance, reliability and ease of use, meeting the strict requirements of the modern medical environment. It is the first choice for professionals looking for a high-performance, durable centrifuge that is easy to integrate into a clinical workflow.
