Ohaus FC5706P+R97 Multipurpose Benchtop Centrifuge with Multi-Rotor Compatibility

The Ohaus FC5706P+R97 is a versatile multipurpose benchtop centrifuge designed for a range of centrifugation applications in biotechnology, molecular biology, and clinical diagnostics. Featuring a speed range of 200 to 6,000 rpm with a maximum relative centrifugal force (RCF) of 4,427 x g, it supports multiple rotor types, including angle and swing-out rotors accommodating volumes from 1.5 ml to 50 ml.

Key technical features include:

• Rotor capacity: Supports up to 6 x 50 ml tubes (angle rotor type), enabling processing of moderate sample volumes typical in bioprocessing workflows.
• Rotor compatibility: Includes angle rotors for 12 x 15 ml, 6 x 50 ml tubes, swing-out rotors for 6 x 5 ml and 4 x 10 ml tubes, and angle rotors for microcentrifuge tubes (18 x 1.5/2.0 ml), providing flexibility for synthetic biology and molecular cloning protocols.
• Control and display: Equipped with a 2-line backlit LCD for clear parameter visualization and control; programmable with 99 memory slots for method reproducibility.
• Operation: Powered by AC input (100-240 V), includes a maintenance-free motor with a compact footprint (540 mm x 365 mm x 323 mm), suiting tight lab environments and continuous biomanufacturing processes.
• Safety & durability: Mechanical lid lock ensures sample security; noise levels maintained at ≤ 56 ± 2 dB(A) to minimize lab disturbance; CE and FCC safety certifications compliant with standard clinical and research laboratories.
• Performance: Acceleration and deceleration gears both calibrated at level 10 allow smooth sample handling critical for sensitive biomedical engineering and molecular diagnostic applications. Running times range from 10 seconds up to 99 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds, including a Quickspin option for fast sample processing.

Designed for routine and complex centrifugation needs in biotechnology workflows, the Ohaus FC5706P+R97 is widely adopted in synthetic biology research and biopharmaceutical production pipelines, being essential for molecular cloning and cell separation protocols. The device’s easy installation design and broad rotor compatibility make it an effective solution for preclinical and industrial laboratories focusing on live-cell imaging preparation and fluorescence analysis sample processing.
