Product description

Benchtop centrifuge with max speed 15,000 RPM and 20,627 x g RCF for nucleic acid and protein prep.

The Beckman Coulter Microfuge 20 is a high-performance benchtop centrifuge designed for molecular biology and biochemistry labs.

  • Maximum Speed: 15,000 RPM
  • Maximum Capacity: 36 tubes of 1.5/2.0 ml volume
  • Maximum Relative Centrifugal Force (RCF): 20,627 x g
  • Rotor Included: FA241.5P Fixed Angle Rotor, matching max speed and RCF specifications

Key Features:

  • Microprocessor-controlled operation for precision and repeatability
  • Brushless three-phase drive motor ensures smooth, maintenance-free performance
  • Selectable acceleration and deceleration rates allow protocol customization
  • Electromechanical door-locking and steel barrier for enhanced operator safety
  • Overspeed monitoring via magnetic sensor to prevent unsafe conditions
  • Rubber feet minimize rotation during rotor mishaps, increasing stability
  • Continuous sensor monitoring with error message display for system integrity
  • Compact footprint suitable for limited bench space while maintaining versatile functionality

Maintenance and Testing Details:

  • Door latch and hinges checked and lubricated as needed
  • Drive belt inspected and replaced if damaged
  • Rotors and O-rings lubricated as necessary
  • Lamps and display checked for visibility and replaced if dim
  • Power cord inspected and replaced if damaged
  • Internal circuitry checked for faults and replaced if required

This centrifuge supports standard workflows such as nucleic acid and protein extractions, purifications, phase separations, pelleting, concentration, receptor binding studies, and rapid sedimentation of particulates or cell debris.

Users are advised to verify rotor compatibility for specific applications and consult the Rotor Compatibility Guide for alternatives.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
