Benchmark High-Speed Microcentrifuge C2417-R-NR

Product Description

The Benchmark High-Speed Microcentrifuge C2417-R-NR is a cutting-edge laboratory instrument designed to deliver superior performance in high-speed centrifugation. With speeds of up to 13,500 rpm (16,800 xg), it efficiently processes a wide variety of samples, including DNA, RNA, proteins, and more. Although similar to the refrigerated version, this model operates without refrigeration, making it ideal for applications that do not require temperature control. The COMBI-Rotor™ enhances versatility, accommodating tubes, PCR strips, and spin columns, while its compact design makes it a perfect fit for any laboratory setup.
