Thermo Fisher Scientific Microliter 30 x 2 fixed angle rotor: maximum performance and enhanced safety for microtubes
The Microliter 30 x 2 fixed angle rotor from Thermo Fisher Scientific is the solution of choice for laboratories looking for efficiency, safety and compatibility. Made from high-quality aluminium, this rotor can centrifuge up to 30 2 mL microtubes, guaranteeing high performance while ensuring perfect sample stability. Its extensive compatibility with compact benchtop centrifuges and the General Purpose X Pro and ST Plus models makes it an essential accessory for both research environments and routine clinical use.
Capable of reaching an impressive maximum speed of 15,200 rpm, the Microliter 30 x 2 rotor generates a relative centrifugal force (RCF) of up to 25,830 x g. This allows for fast and homogeneous separation of components, even for the most sensitive applications. The fixed angle of 45° ensures optimal orientation of the microtubes for maximum throughput without compromising sample integrity.
One of the great advantages of this rotor is its AutoLock™ locking system, which allows for secure installation and removal without additional tools. This innovative technology ensures a firm anchorage on the centrifuge axis, reducing handling errors and speeding up the preparation process. Handling is simple, reliable and suitable for intensive use cycles of up to 50,000 times.
In addition, this rotor is certified aerosol-tight by the British HPA (Porton Down) laboratory in accordance with EN 61010-2-020. This level of safety is particularly crucial in biological applications where personnel and environmental protection is essential. Thanks to its hermetically sealed lid and resistant seals, the risk of leakage or contamination is greatly reduced.
The Microliter 30 x 2 rotor is fully autoclavable up to 121°C, making it easy to maintain and ensuring impeccable hygiene. It can be cleaned, disinfected or decontaminated according to laboratory requirements, while maintaining its performance over the long term. Its simple maintenance and durability make it a cost-effective and sustainable investment for any healthcare facility, research centre or analytical laboratory.
