COOLING CENTRIFUGE
MAKE DINESH SCIENTIFIC
DESCRIPTION
A cooling centrifuge is a specialized laboratory device that combines centrifugation with temperature control to separate components of a mixture while maintaining a consistent, often low, temperature. This is crucial for samples that are temperature-sensitive, such as biological specimens, pharmaceuticals, and certain chemical compounds. Here’s a detailed description of its
COMPONENTS AND FEATURES
ROTOR:
- The rotor is the part of the centrifuge where tubes or containers holding the samples are placed. Different types of rotors (fixed-angle, swing-bucket, etc.) can be used depending on the specific application.
REFRIGERATION SYSTEM:
- This system is integrated into the centrifuge to control the temperature. It typically uses a compressor and refrigerant to cool the rotor chamber. The temperature can usually be set and maintained within a specific range
CONTROL PANEL:
- The control panel allows users to set and monitor operational parameters such as speed (revolutions per minute, RPM), time, and temperature. Advanced models may feature digital displays and programmable settings.
SAFETY FEATURES:
- Cooling centrifuges come with various safety features including imbalance detection, automatic lid locking, and emergency stop functions. These ensure safe operation, especially at high speeds.
MOTOR:
- A powerful motor drives the rotor, enabling high-speed rotation necessary for effective separation of samples. The motor is often designed to handle the stress of prolonged use at high speeds.
