Powerful and Safe Separation using Centrifuges

CHALLENGES IN DAILY WORK WITH CENTRIFUGES

Centrifuges are indispensable devices in our laboratories, especially for the separation of DNA-relevant samples. Many challenges arise in the daily work with centrifuges in the laboratory.

Here are just a few examples:

How can we best utilize the limited space on our lab bench?
How can the target substance be optimally separated from the sample matrix?
How can we avoid blockage or breakage of the motor during high-speed centrifugation?
How can we convert RCF to RPM?

If you are also asking yourself these questions, we have a solution for you. The IKA G-L centrifuge is not only compact and easy to operate, but also meets your high performance and safety requirements.

YOUR BENEFITS

Compact
IKA G-L has a very small footprint and requires only a small space of approx. 200 x 280 mm on your laboratory bench.

Powerful
With a maximum speed of up to 15,700 rpm, the IKA G-L is the most powerful device in its class. Substances can be easily separated from the sample matrix. The capacity is 12 x 1.5/2.0 ml.

Safe
IKA G-L is equipped with an imbalance sensor. If the Falcon Tubes are not positioned correctly, the device cannot be started and issues a warning. This prevents the engine from being blocked or even damaged.

Falcon Tube placement

Falcon tubes must be placed diagonally

Easy to use
With the IKA G-L, you no longer need to perform complicated calculations. At the touch of a button, you can choose between the units RCF (relative centrifugal force) or RPM (revolutions per minute).
RPM indicates the speed at which the rotor rotates. RCF is the term for the acceleration force that acts on a sample in a centrifuge.
