The Corning LSE compact centrifuge is a space saving centrifuge ideal for use in life science and industrial research labs.
Four angle rotors are available for this centrifuge, including an innovative combination rotor designed by Corning to allow for greater versatility. This multi-purpose rotor can accommodate various tube sizes including a 5 mL microcentrifuge tube, as well as round and conical bottom 15 mL and 50 mL centrifuge tubes. Tubes are inserted at an increased fixed angle to allow for improved efficiency of cellular pelleting. An equal g-force is applied to the samples when spinning 15 mL and 50 mL tubes simultaneously. In addition, the LSE compact centrifuge can accommodate a swing-out rotor for 6 x 5 mL.
The centrifuge’s control panel features a large digital display and a convenient turn knob for setting parameter values. An internal microprocessor maintains precise control over operation with ten levels of acceleration and deceleration and a speed range from 200 rpm to 6,000 rpm. For safety considerations, the centrifuge is equipped with an electronic lid lock system, over speed protection, and an automatic shut off imbalance detection system.
