Hettich Benchtop centrifuge ROTANTA 460

Hettich Benchtop centrifuge ROTANTA 460

Efficient, results-oriented working processes are top priority in both research and routine laboratories. Advanced laboratory technology makes a significant contribution to shortening processing times.

For decades, ROTANTA centrifuges from Hettich have been distinguished by the highest quality. Excellent performance and an extensive range of accessories guarantee fast, trouble-free operation in daily laboratory use.

With a maximum capacity of 3 litres per run, they are proving themselves in clinics and laboratory centres, as well as in Life Science R & D departments.

For sample processing in clinical chemistry, a wide selection of adapters are available to accommodate the most varied types of tubes. Biotechnology, molecular biology and the pharmaceutical industry value the ROTANTA 460 / 460 R especially for its autoclavable and aerosoltight accessories.

These versatile benchtop centrifuges feature a filter plate rotor with an RCF of 6.446 for purifying DNA/RNA.

Model variants of the refrigerated ROTANTA 460 R with connection for nitrogen flushing or heating/cooling version up to 90 °C or heating/cooling version with connection for nitrogen flushing on request.

With the convenient C control panel, even the most challenging centrifugation programs can easily be keyed in, stored and accessed as required.

The ROTANTA 460 /460 R makes everyday centrifugation easier because of its ergonomic design. The centrifuge has the following features:

• Ergonomic operation and display field
• Simple rotor change
• Ergonomic C control panel This allows complex centrifugation programs to be entered easily, stored and called up as necessary
• 98 programmable memories
• Safeguards against unauthorized operation or changes to stored programs
• The centrifuge run time can be switched from ''at start'' (commences from the start) to ''at speed'' (commences when the set speed has been reached)
• Special braking ramps for the centrifugation of blood bags
• Program-linking to connect a number of centrifugation runs (optional)

ROTANTA benchtop centrifuges have been proven in use for decades in terms of quality and safety. The ROTANTA 460 /460 R has the following features:

• Lid locking
• Emergency lid release
• Lid dropping protection
• Automatic rotor recognition
• Imbalance shut-off
• Motor overheating protection
• Chamber overheating protection (ROTANTA 460 R)
