Thermo Scientific TFT-80.4 Rotor – Performance and Reliability for Your Centrifugation Applications
The Thermo Scientific TFT-80.4 rotor is a state-of-the-art device designed to meet the needs of modern laboratories. This fixed-angle rotor, made of titanium, combines robustness and performance to deliver accurate and reliable results in a variety of centrifugation applications.
With a capacity of 10 x 4.4 mL, the TFT-80.4 can process a large volume of samples simultaneously, increasing the efficiency of research processes. Its maximum speed of 80,000 rpm and maximum centrifugal force of 468,246 x g make it an ideal tool for isolating proteins, viruses and DNA, as well as for other applications requiring fast and efficient separation. This ability to handle high centrifugal forces is crucial for laboratories that require fast and accurate results, thereby reducing waiting times and speeding up research cycles.
The TFT-80.4 rotor is compatible with Sorvall™ WX Ultra centrifuges, ensuring easy integration into existing equipment. This compatibility allows laboratories to leverage their current investments without having to replace their entire infrastructure. Its fixed angle of 25° and K factor of 25.8 ensure optimal sample separation, guaranteeing that components are properly isolated and purified. These technical features are essential for achieving reproducible and reliable results, which are indispensable in demanding research environments.
Made of titanium, this rotor is not only lightweight but also extremely durable, capable of withstanding the harsh conditions of laboratory environments. Titanium is a material of choice for its corrosion resistance and ability to maintain its structural integrity under high mechanical stresses. This durability ensures a long service life for the equipment, reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
The TFT-80.4's net weight of 3.5 kg (7.7 lb) and compact dimensions make it easy to handle and store. These features are particularly advantageous in laboratories where space is often limited and ease of use is paramount. The rotor's light weight also allows for quick installation and removal, minimising downtime and maximising productivity.
