The Sigma 1-14 high-speed desktop centrifuge is suitable for sedimentation of microtube volumes between 0.2ml and 2.2ml.
The Sigma 1-14 has a large capacity with 24 microtubes 1.5/2.2ml and has a maximum speed of 14.8000rpm corresponding 16.163 x g.
Its forced air cooling system ensures that sample temperature increase is less than 10C and enables its use where other brands would require a refrigerated centrifuge.
Its applications include microbiological, molecular-biological and medical research, as well as PCR/DNA analysis.
Sigma offers six different rotors with 12, 18 and 24 microtubes capacity.
Rotors are made from either polypropylene or aluminium and are delivered with a transparent lid.
The 1-14 centrifuge offers additional acceleration curves (soft-start), deceleration (soft-stop) curves and a short-run mode.
Soft-start enables gentle acceleration and protects sensitive samples.
Soft-stop reduces remixing of sediments when stopping the centrifuge.
The Sigma 1-14 features a large display with clear indication of parameters such as speed, relative centrifugal force and running time.
