Sigma 3-30KS refrigerated benchtop centrifuge – High-performance precision for demanding laboratories
The Sigma 3-30KS refrigerated benchtop centrifuge embodies performance and precision for the most critical laboratory applications. Designed to meet the high standards of cell biology, genetics, biomedical research and clinical diagnostics, it combines powerful separation, rigorous temperature control and optimal user comfort. Thanks to its exceptional performance and versatility, it is the tool of choice for demanding laboratories.
Equipped with a brushless induction motor, the Sigma 3-30KS achieves a rotation speed of up to 30,000 rpm, enabling a maximum relative centrifugal force of 70,121 × g with the appropriate rotor. This capacity makes it ideal for protocols requiring rapid and efficient sample separation, while ensuring quiet operation and excellent stability even at full speed. The technical design of the device reduces the noise level to less than 57 dB(A), providing a more pleasant and safer working environment.
One of the major advantages of this centrifuge is its powerful and precise refrigeration system, which guarantees temperature control from -20°C to +40°C. Thanks to the Rapid Temp function, rotors can be pre-cooled efficiently, which is essential for preserving the integrity of heat-sensitive samples. The refrigerant used (R452A) is environmentally friendly and ensures fast and consistent cooling, even during prolonged operation.
The Sigma 3-30KS is also designed for ease of use. Its user interface, equipped with a high-definition TFT colour screen, allows clear reading of parameters and quick access to stored programmes. The ergonomic and intuitive Spincontrol S controller allows fine programming of speed, duration, temperature and acceleration or braking ramp. Up to 60 programmes can be saved, facilitating repetitive tasks or complex protocols.
This centrifuge offers a wide range of compatible rotors ( fixed angle or swing-bucket), suitable for various tube formats and applications. Thanks to automatic rotor detection, motorised lid locking and integrated safety systems (imbalance detection, temperature and cycle control), the Sigma 3-30KS guarantees maximum safety during every cycle. Its compact design and robustness make it a durable, high-performance device that is perfectly suited to modern laboratory environments.
