Selection and Use of Table Top Centrifuge Machines

Overview of Table Top Centrifuge Machines

A table top centrifuge machine is a common laboratory device primarily used to separate solid particles from liquids in suspensions or to separate emulsions into two distinct phases. It is widely applied in biological, chemical, pharmaceutical, and other scientific research, education, and production fields.

Classification of Table Top Centrifuge Machines

Table top centrifuge machines can be classified according to different standards.

According to speed, they can be divided into low-speed table top centrifuge machines and high-speed table top centrifuge machines. From daily basic experiments to precise sample separation, low-speed and high-speed table top centrifuge machines meet various separation needs with different speed ranges.

According to functionality, they can be divided into regular centrifuge machines and refrigerated centrifuge machines. For experiments requiring temperature control, refrigerated table top centrifuge machines provide precise temperature regulation, offering optimal protection for sensitive samples.

Choosing a Table Top Centrifuge Machine

Selecting an ideal table top centrifuge machine can not only improve experimental efficiency but also extend the device's service life. Here are some key factors to consider when choosing a centrifuge machine:

• Speed and Centrifugal Force:These are crucial parameters for selecting a centrifuge machine. Different experimental requirements call for different speeds and centrifugal forces.

  
  

• Capacity:Choose an appropriate capacity based on the number and volume of the samples to be processed.

  
  

• Functionality:Depending on the experimental requirements, select a centrifuge machine with suitable features, such as a refrigeration function or temperature control.

Using a Table Top Centrifuge Machine

When using a table top centrifuge machine, be sure to follow these precautions:

• Correct Installation and Fixation of Test Tubes: Ensure that the test tubes are properly installed and securely fixed to prevent displacement or breakage during centrifugation.

  
  

• Set the Appropriate Speed and Time: Adjust the machine to the correct speed and time based on the experimental needs to avoid experimental failure or damage to the equipment due to improper settings.

  
  

• Regular Maintenance and Cleaning: Perform routine maintenance and cleaning of the centrifuge machine to ensure its proper operation and extend its service life.
