Benchtop Centrifuges ROTOFIX 46 Hettich

Product Description

The Hettich ROTOFIX 46 is a robust benchtop centrifuge engineered for versatility and reliability in laboratory settings. Available in non-refrigerated and heated variants, it supports a broad range of sample workflows for medium- to high-volume applications. The non-refrigerated version delivers high-speed separation up to 4,000 rpm, while the heated version maintains a controlled temperature environment from +10 °C to +90 °C—ideal for processes that demand thermal regulation.

Features

• Two model options: standard non-refrigerated and heated (ROTOFIX 46 H)

• Non-refrigerated model supports high-speed operation for large-volume samples

• Heated version includes temperature control from +10 °C to +90 °C

• Capacity for up to 4 tubes (290 ml for non-heated, 100 ml for heated)

• Programmable run times from 1 second to 99 minutes 59 seconds

• Continuous run and impulse (short cycle) modes
