The HSCo HSC-C-RK18TT is a refrigerated high-speed bench-top centrifuge that spins up to 18,000 rpm (23,755 × g) with a maximum load of 4 × 100 ml. It holds samples between −20 °C and +40 °C with a compressor refrigeration unit, has microcomputer control with an LCD screen, an electronic lid lock, and automatic alarms for over-speed, over-temperature and imbalance. It is used for clinical diagnostics, biochemistry and research.
Why labs choose it

Where it is used
Clinical and diagnostic labs, blood banks, biochemistry and molecular biology, pharmaceutical and academic research: separating cells, proteins, nucleic acids and other samples that must stay cold.
Questions buyers ask
Up to 18,000 rpm, a relative centrifugal force of 23,755 × g.
Down to −20 °C, and up to +40 °C, within ±1 °C.
4 × 100 ml.
No. The electronic lid lock keeps it closed until the rotor stops, and alarms warn of over-speed, over-temperature and imbalance.
