Waken Biotech WKN-2818 Benchtop Centrifuge for 0.2mL PCR Tubes

The Waken Biotech WKN-2818 is a benchtop centrifuge specifically designed for rapid centrifugation of 0.2 mL PCR tubes arranged in dual 8-strip rows, supporting molecular biology and biotechnology laboratory applications such as gene editing preparation and molecular diagnostics. It achieves a maximum rotational speed of 6200 rpm with centrifugal forces ranging from 810 to 2,690 G, suitable for sample pelleting and phase separation in PCR workflows.

Key Features:

• Supports up to 16 PCR tubes (0.2 mL) simultaneously in two 8-strip rows, facilitating efficient bioprocessing steps.
• Compact footprint with dimensions of 150×163×113 mm and lightweight design at 610 g (without batteries), ideal for constrained lab spaces and mobile setups.
• Dual power options: AC input (100–240 V, 50/60 Hz) or four AA alkaline batteries, enabling flexible use in diverse laboratory environments or field applications.
• The centrifuge is sold as a used unit with potential deviations in performance from the original specification; recommended for users requiring a budget-conscious laboratory centrifuge for routine PCR tube processing.

This mini centrifuge is widely used in biotechnology and synthetic biology research labs where rapid, reliable centrifugation of PCR samples is essential. Its ergonomic and energy-efficient design supports critical molecular biology procedures including DNA extraction, PCR sample preparation, and other biomanufacturing workflows.
