OHAUS FC5513R V1 Frontier 5000 Micro Centrifuge, 24 x 1.5/2.0 ml Capacity, Refrigerated, LCD Display
OHAUS FC5513R V1 Centrifuge — Refrigerated Micro Centrifuge for Sensitive DNA/RNA Work
Temperature-sensitive nucleic acid samples demand precise cooling throughout every spin. The OHAUS FC5513R V1 Centrifuge combines a −20 °C to 40 °C refrigeration range with a 14,500 rpm top speed and 17,157 × g maximum RCF, giving molecular biology labs the control they need without sacrificing throughput.
Key Features
- Integrated Refrigeration: Active cooling from −20 °C to 40 °C keeps heat-sensitive samples protected from the first spin to the last.
- High-Speed Performance: Reaches 14,500 rpm and 17,157 × g maximum RCF for efficient pelleting of DNA, RNA, and proteins.
- 24-Place Rotor Capacity: Accommodates up to 24 × 1.5/2.0 ml microtubes, supporting high-throughput processing in a single run.
- Biocontainment Rotor Compatibility: Supports BIOSEALS rotors for safe handling of potentially hazardous biological samples.
- 10-Level Acceleration and Deceleration: Adjustable ramp rates let you dial in the exact profile required for delicate gradients or pelleting protocols.
- 99 Programmable Memories: Store frequently used protocols to reduce setup time and minimize operator error between runs.
- LCD with Backlight: Clear two-line display keeps all key run parameters visible even in low-light laboratory environments.
Detailed Overview
The FC5513R V1 runs on a brushless motor that keeps noise at or below 56 dB(A) — a notable advantage in open-plan labs where multiple instruments operate side by side. The pre-cool function brings the chamber down to 4 °C before sample loading, preventing any temperature excursion at the start of a run. PCR strip compatibility broadens its usefulness beyond standard microtube work, covering applications such as ultrafiltration and cell fractionation. Mechanical lid-lock engagement adds a physical safety layer, and the multi-safety control system monitors for rotor imbalance and over-speed. With 99 storable programs, repetitive workflows like daily RNA extraction become one-touch operations, and the GLP-compatible interface supports data traceability requirements in regulated environments.
Applications
- DNA and RNA isolation and preparation
- Protein precipitation and pelleting
- Ultrafiltration of biological fluids
- PCR strip preparation and cleanup
- Cell fractionation requiring temperature control
