MSE Sanyo MSB010. CX2. 5 Microcentrifuge

• Separation of biological samples in molecular biology and biochemistry.
• Pelleting of nucleic acids (DNA/RNA) and proteins.
• Processing of small-volume samples in clinical diagnostics.
• Micro-filtration and sample preparation in research laboratories.

Typical capacity

Microcentrifuges of this type commonly accommodate 12-24 microtubes (e.g., 0.2ml, 0.5ml, 1.5ml, 2.0ml).

Maximum RCF

Units in this class typically offer maximum relative centrifugal force (RCF) in the range of 10,000 to 20,000 x g.

Maximum speed

Commonly, these microcentrifuges achieve speeds between 12,000 and 15,000 RPM.

Power supply

Typically operates on a standard single-phase electrical supply, commonly 230V, 50Hz for the UK market.

Footprint

Benchtop microcentrifuges are designed for minimal laboratory bench space, with a compact footprint.

Temperature control

While some microcentrifuges are refrigerated, the 'MSB010' model designation often indicates a non-refrigerated unit. Buyers should confirm if refrigeration is required.

• What type of rotor does this microcentrifuge typically use?

  Microcentrifuges in this category commonly utilise fixed-angle rotors, designed for microtubes. Buyers should confirm the specific rotor included with the unit.

• Is this unit suitable for continuous operation?

• What maintenance is typically required for a microcentrifuge?

• Can this microcentrifuge handle different tube sizes?

• What safety features are commonly found on this type of equipment?

Centrifuges are valued across laboratories and biotech facilities for reliable sample separation. Buyers typically prioritise rotor compatibility, temperature stability in refrigerated models, and ease of maintenance when purchasing used units. Industry sentiment reflects appreciation for durable construction and consistent performance. Key considerations include verifying motor condition, checking calibration history, and confirming availability of compatible rotors. Well-maintained examples offer strong value and longevity, though wear on seals and bearings warrants inspection. Speed range and capacity alignment with intended applications remains important for operational efficiency.
