Safety Features
Laboratory centrifuges must operate under strict safety standards to protect both users and valuable samples. That’s why every centrifuge in our collection includes multiple built-in safety systems designed to minimize risk and enhance peace of mind during daily use.
From reinforced lids with secure locking mechanisms to automatic imbalance detection, our centrifuges are built to handle high-speed operation without compromising user safety. The systems respond quickly to any irregularities—halting the spin when necessary to prevent damage or injury.
Anti-skid bases, thermal insulation, and overload protection further enhance operational stability, making these centrifuges suitable for teaching labs, clinical diagnostics, and high-demand research settings. With every spin, you can trust that both your team and your results are protected.
How to Use & Maintain Your Centrifuge Safely?
Using a centrifuge properly is essential for protecting both your team and your samples. Incorrect handling can lead to mechanical failure or compromised results, so it’s important to follow safety protocols and care routines. Regular maintenance also ensures your centrifuge operates smoothly and lasts longer, especially in high-use environments.
Best Practices for Safe Operation & Maintenance:
- Balance Samples Properly: Always load tubes symmetrically to prevent damage or dangerous vibration.
- Secure the Lid: Never run the centrifuge with a loose or open lid. Use models with automatic locking mechanisms.
- Use the Right Tubes: Only use tube types and sizes that are compatible with your rotor to avoid cracking or spills.
- Clean After Use: Wipe the inner chamber and rotor with a soft cloth and disinfectant; avoid corrosive cleaners.
- Inspect for Damage: Regularly check the rotor, seals, and housing for signs of wear or stress.
- Let It Fully Stop: Wait for the rotor to come to a complete stop before opening the lid or unloading.
- Follow the Manual: Refer to your centrifuge’s manual for calibration, part replacement, and long-term maintenance schedules.
FAQs
Can I use centrifuges for blood and vacutainer tubes?
Yes, many of our centrifuges are compatible with standard blood and vacutainer® tubes. Be sure to check tube size compatibility and rotor specifications for each model.
How fast do centrifuges spin?
Speed varies by model, but most lab centrifuges range from 3,000 to 15,000 RPM. The correct speed depends on your specific application and sample type.
Do I need to calibrate my centrifuge regularly?
Yes, periodic calibration ensures consistent performance and accuracy. Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for recommended calibration intervals.
Are mini centrifuges suitable for all labs?
Mini centrifuges are ideal for quick, low-volume spins and limited space. For high-capacity needs, a larger rotor-based model is recommended.
What safety features should I look for in a centrifuge?
Look for auto-shutoff, imbalance detection, secure lid locking, and thermal protection to ensure safe daily operation.
