Description

The LMC-56 bench top centrifuge can be used for a wide range of applications in medical, biochemical and industrial laboratories. The low noise motor is encased in a protective metal housing that is easy to clean and decontaminate. 

The LMC-56 features multiple acceleration (slow, normal, fast) and deceleration (0, slow, normal, fast) modes and the rotor speed can be set in rpm or rcf.  The unit has a maximum speed of 2000 rpm for microplates and 6000 rpm for centrifuge tubes. 

This compact instrument incorporates a number of safety features including metal protective inserts in the casing and lid, automatic imbalance switch-off, and lid lock.

A number of rotors for microplates and different tube sizes are available for the LMC-56. Rotors are purchased separately from the centrifuge.
