Quick Low Speed Centrifugation

The reasonably priced benchtop FlexiFuge mini centrifuge is ideal for quick spin downs from the walls of tubes, microfiltration of HPLC samples and cell separations. It offers the unique selection of three operating modes

in the class of tabletop Microcentrifuges. The FlexiFuge can be operated in continuous mode, pulsed for a short burst of rapid centrifugation, or timed to spin from 1-15 minutes. Once the lid release button

is pushed the rotors stop, regardless of setting.

The quiet motor offers two speeds - 2000g or 5000g/6,000 or 9,200 RPM, depending on application. The FlexiFuge has silicone feet for stability and its small dimensions (240x187x139mm with lid closed) make it ideal for use in safety cabinets.

FlexiFuge is supplied with an 8-place fixed angle rotor for 1.5ml tubes, a rotor for 0.2ml PCR tube strips, adapters for 0.5ml tubes and a 4-place rotor to spin the unique Argos 5ml snap-cap microcentrifuge tubes supplied by BioTool. The FlexiFuge is currently the only microcentrifuge on the market that accommodates 5ml microtubes.

When the unit is active a ring of LED lights illuminate, which is visible through the transparent lid. Josef Macaluso, Director of BioTool AG, highlighted this feature: “The colour can be changed (red, green, blue) or turned off by a switch under the unit. It offers an additional safety aspect. With all its centrifuge features packed into a personal benchtop unit, the FlexiFuge is a cost-effective solution for laboratories on a small budget.”
