Advanced Hematocrit MeasurementThis centrifuge offers reliable, high-speed separation for accurate hematocrit value determination. Users can process up to 24 capillary tubes simultaneously, ensuring efficient blood analysis for medical diagnostics or research purposes. The ambient temperature operation and automatic lid locking enhance user safety and sample integrity.
Robust Construction and Quiet OperationConstructed from powder-coated steel and high-quality plastics, this centrifuge delivers durability and stability. Its compact, rectangular design fits seamlessly onto lab benches while maintaining a noise level below 60 dB, making it suitable for busy laboratory environments where quiet operation is valued.
FAQs of Hematocrite Centrifuges:
Q: How do I operate the Hematocrite Centrifuge safely?
A: To operate the centrifuge, load the capillary tubes evenly in the rotor, ensuring balance. Close the lid until the automatic locking system engages. Use the manual knob to set the desired speed and timer. The device will only start once the lid is securely locked, ensuring safety during operation.
Q: What is the rotor capacity of this centrifuge and which tubes are compatible?
A: The rotor can hold up to 24 capillary tubes, each with a length of 75 mm. It is designed explicitly for hematocrit determinations using standard capillary tubes suitable for blood sample processing.
Q: When should the centrifuges timer and speed be adjusted?
A: Adjust the timer (030 minutes) and speed (up to 11,000 RPM) based on your protocol and sample requirements. The timer and speed settings allow precise control over separation, helping ensure accurate hematocrite readings.
Q: Where is this centrifuge commonly used?
A: This hematocrit centrifuge is widely utilized in clinical laboratories, research institutions, and educational settings, especially where rapid determination of blood hematocrite values is frequently required.
Q: What process does the centrifuge use to determine hematocrite value?
A: The centrifuge applies centrifugal force (up to 14,800 x g) to segmented blood-filled capillary tubes, separating plasma from red blood cells. After spinning, the proportion of red cell volume in each tube directly indicates the hematocrit value.
Q: How does the safety lid interlock system benefit users?
A: The automatic lid locking system prevents the centrifuge from operating unless the lid is securely closed, protecting users from accidental exposure to moving parts during operation.
