OHAUS FC5707+R09 Frontier 5000 Multi Centrifuge, 4x50ml or 4x15ml RB/FA Capacity, LCD Display

OHAUS FC5707+R09 Centrifuge — Dual-Tube-Size Compact Multi Centrifuge for Versatile Lab Workflows

When a single rotor must handle both large and small tube formats without rotor swaps, the OHAUS FC5707+R09 Centrifuge fills that role. Its R09 angle rotor processes either 4 × 50 ml or 4 × 15 ml round-bottom and fixed-angle tubes, offering a two-format capability in the same compact, 10 kg package.

Key Features

• Dual-Format R09 Rotor: A single rotor accommodates both 4 × 50 ml and 4 × 15 ml RB/FA tubes — eliminating rotor changes when switching between tube sizes.
• 6,800 rpm and 4,445 × g: Provides sufficient centrifugal force for cell pelleting, serum separation, and buffer clarification.
• Same Compact Footprint as FC5707: At 10 kg and 356 mm × 236 mm × 277 mm, the instrument fits easily on shared or limited bench space.
• 10-Step Ramp Profiles: Independently programmable acceleration and deceleration stages protect sample integrity across different tube sizes and contents.
• 99 Protocol Memory Slots: Save separate programs for 50 ml and 15 ml workflows so operators can switch between them without re-entering parameters.
• Easy Installation Design: Straightforward rotor attachment allows rapid setup and changeover with minimal downtime.
• 50 W Power Consumption: Low energy draw supports all-day operation in multi-instrument environments.

Detailed Overview

The FC5707+R09 occupies the same physical platform as the FC5707+R05 but differentiates itself with a rotor that spans two tube size categories. For labs that run cell culture harvests in 50 ml tubes in the morning and smaller purification steps in 15 ml tubes later in the day, eliminating the rotor swap reduces friction and potential contamination risk. The brushless motor keeps noise at or below 60 dB(A), and Quickspin mode provides manual-stop pulsing for quick sample collections. CE and FCC certifications satisfy international compliance requirements. The intuitive LCD interface keeps run parameters visible throughout each cycle, and the mechanical lid lock prevents access during operation.

Applications

• Cell culture harvest in 50 ml conical tubes
• Intermediate purification steps requiring 15 ml tubes
• Mixed-format centrifugation batches in research labs
• Buffer and media preparation at varying scales

Why Choose the OHAUS FC5707+R09?

Versatility without added bulk is the defining advantage of the FC5707+R09. Labs that need a single instrument to cover both 50 ml and 15 ml workflows can do so without purchasing a second rotor or a larger centrifuge. Add to cart to streamline your multi-format centrifugation setup.
