Grant Bio PCV-2400 Benchtop Mini Microcentrifuge with Integrated Tube Vortexer

The Grant Bio PCV-2400 Mini Centrifuge is a compact benchtop microcentrifuge designed for rapid sample processing in molecular biology and biotechnology laboratories. Featuring a 12-position rotor compatible with 1.5 ml, 0.2 ml, and 0.5 ml microtubes, this unit enables simultaneous processing of multiple samples, essential for high-throughput workflows.

Key technical specifications include:

• Fixed maximum speed of 2800 RPM delivering a maximum relative centrifugal force (RCF) of 700 x g, suitable for spin-down and pellet formation in cell imaging, molecular cloning, and synthetic biology protocols.
• Dual operating modes: continuous and impulse spin cycles controlled via a toggle switch for flexible centrifugation settings.
• Integrated tube vortexer with a vortex cup protruding through the lid, allowing individual microtubes to be vortexed without interrupting centrifugation cycles—critical for resuspension and homogenization in gene editing and molecular diagnostics workflows.
• Safety features include automatic rotor stop upon lid opening and low noise operation at 50 dBA, ensuring a user-friendly environment in clinical diagnostics and bioprocessing labs.
• Compact dimensions (7 x 9 x 5 inches) and lightweight design (10 lbs) make it suitable for limited bench space in biotechnology and biomedical engineering research settings.
• Power requirements: 110V, 60Hz, 30W, compatible with standard laboratory electrical supply.

This combined microcentrifuge and tube vortexer unit is widely adopted in synthetic biology and molecular biology laboratories for tasks such as sample spin-down, cell preparation, and reagent mixing. Its versatility supports downstream applications critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and molecular cloning workflows. The Grant Bio PCV-2400 optimizes throughput by integrating two essential sample preparation tools into one compact device.
