Beckman Coulter Optima Max-TL Benchtop Ultracentrifuge with Thermoelectric Cooling

The Beckman Coulter Optima Max-TL Ultracentrifuge is a high-performance benchtop ultracentrifuge engineered for advanced biotechnology and molecular diagnostics workflows. Designed with a robust variable frequency induction drive, it achieves a maximum speed of 120,000 rpm generating centrifugal forces up to 657,000 ×g, essential for applications such as bioprocessing, gene editing, and synthetic biology research.

Key technical features include:

• Thermoelectric temperature control system offering precise temperature regulation between 0°C to 40°C without the use of coolants or harmful gases (CFCs/ODCs), facilitating live-cell and fluorescence-based assays.
• Volume capacity range from 0 to 40.8 mL, compatible with the included fixed-angle rotor MLA-55 (8 x 13.5 mL) suitable for ultracentrifugation of samples in clinical diagnostics and biomanufacturing pipelines.
• Microprocessor-controlled operation with full-color LCD touchscreen interface, enabling up to 10 acceleration and 11 deceleration profiles with preset protocols to safeguard sample integrity during separation.
• Integrated automated self-purging vacuum system maintaining chamber vacuum below 10 microns (1.34 Pa) for reduced air friction and enhanced rotor performance; coupled with an auto door-locking mechanism improving safety during runs.
• Compact dimensions (29" x 24" x 15.5") and a weight of 105 kg (231.5 lb), designed for benchtop installation in laboratories with limited floor space while maximizing throughput and productivity.

This ultracentrifuge is widely adopted in biotechnology and biomedical engineering settings due to its reliable high-speed capability and temperature precision, making it critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and molecular biology research. Its design supports essential molecular cloning workflows and ultrafast separation of biomolecules, perfectly suited for laboratories focused on molecular diagnostics, live-cell imaging, and fluorescence analysis.

Included accessories:

• Fixed-angle rotor MLA-55 with lid (8 x 13.5 mL)
• User manual
• 120V power cord (12A)
• 30-day warranty

Power requirements support flexible lab environments with compatibility for 200-240 VAC at 50/60 Hz and 100-120 VAC supplies.

This equipment offers precision ultracentrifugation with safety and operational efficiency, making it an indispensable tool for researchers and clinicians involved in high-resolution sample fractionation and advanced biotechnological applications.
