Mini G IKA: Efficiency and Simplicity for Routine Centrifugation Tasks
The IKA Mini G is a mini centrifuge designed for low-intensity centrifugation tasks frequently required in molecular biology, medical research, or clinical diagnostic laboratories. It is perfectly suited for daily operations such as cell separation, sample preparation, or microfiltration. Compact and unobtrusive, it fits easily on any laboratory benchtop, even in limited spaces.
Its motor delivers a constant rotational speed of 6,000 rpm, generating a relative centrifugal force (RCF) of 2,000 × g—sufficient to efficiently process small volumes. This operational consistency ensures reproducible results, a critical factor in any rigorous scientific protocol. The lid opens automatically with a single press of a button, facilitating easy access to samples while minimizing the need for manual handling. An integrated safety system prevents the device from starting unless the lid is properly closed, thereby reducing risks for the user.
The intuitive touch control allows smooth navigation and timer adjustment, which can be set from 1 to 99 minutes depending on experimental requirements. A 7-segment LED display ensures clear visibility, even from a distance—enhancing convenience in shared lab environments. The Mini G is also equipped with a rapid stop function, saving time and providing optimal control over centrifugation cycles.
It accommodates up to eight 2.0 ml tubes, with a tool-free interchangeable rotor, allowing the device to be easily adapted to various consumables. Its robust build and reliable design ensure long-term durability, even under intensive use.
Compatible with both PCR tubes and PCR strips, the Mini G meets a wide range of needs in molecular biology workflows. It is a straightforward yet precise device, supporting scientists in their daily procedures without unnecessary complexity.
The Mini G is a smart choice for laboratories seeking a reliable, ergonomic centrifuge that is ready to use right out of the box.
