Benchmark Scientific | PlateFuge 2D Digital Microplate Centrifuge | PCR Plates and Microtiter Plates with Adjustable Speed Control
The Benchmark Scientific PlateFuge 2D Digital Microplate Centrifuge is a compact, high-performance laboratory centrifuge designed for efficient processing of PCR plates and microtiter plates.
Available from Alto Med Supply, this digital microplate centrifuge combines space-saving convenience with precise speed and time controls, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of molecular biology, genomics, and clinical laboratory applications.
Featuring an intuitive digital control panel, the PlateFuge 2D allows users to program both run time and rotational speed to meet specific protocol requirements.
Its patented swing-out rotor design positions plates at a convenient loading angle, helping prevent sample spills and eliminating the need for sealing films or caps during operation.
As the centrifuge accelerates, the rotor automatically moves plates into a horizontal position to ensure effective sample concentration, then returns them to the loading angle after the run for quick and easy removal.
Despite its compact 9 x 12-inch footprint, the PlateFuge 2D accommodates all common PCR plate formats, including skirted, semi-skirted, and non-skirted plates, as well as most standard microtiter plates.
With a maximum speed of 2,800 RPM and centrifugal forces exceeding 700 x g, it rapidly collects samples at the bottom of wells, helping streamline downstream processing and analysis.
Ideal for laboratories seeking reliable performance in a space-efficient design, the Benchmark Scientific PlateFuge 2D delivers dependable results while maximizing bench space.
