Advanced Performance and Rotor Versatility
The Premiere XC50S3 is a standout in the category of Low Speed Desktop Centrifuges, specifically engineered for laboratories that require higher volume throughput without sacrificing precious benchtop space. While many standard entry-level models feature fixed-angle rotors, the XC50S3 utilizes a sophisticated 8 x 50ml swing-out rotor that significantly improves sample separation quality.
The swing-out design is a critical technical advantage for clinical and research applications. As the centrifuge spins, the buckets swing to a full horizontal position. This allows for a clean, horizontal separation of particles, resulting in a perfectly flat sediment line. This is particularly beneficial for PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) processing, where a clear “buffy coat” layer is essential for medical procedures. With a maximum speed of 4,000 RPM and an RCF of 3040xg, this unit provides the precise force needed for sensitive biological separations without damaging the sample.
Designed for Laboratory Safety and Durability
Safety is paramount in any medical, clinical, or educational setting. This Low Speed Desktop Centrifuge is equipped with a high-tech electronic safety-lock lid. This essential feature prevents the lid from being opened manually while the rotor is in motion, protecting the operator from mechanical injury and drastically reducing the risk of aerosol exposure from open tubes.
Under the hood, the XC50S3 is powered by a high-torque brushless motor. Unlike traditional motors that rely on carbon brushes that wear down and create dust over time, brushless technology offers several key benefits for modern labs:
-
Whisper-Quiet Operation: Perfect for busy clinical environments where noise reduction is a priority.
-
Maintenance-Free Life: Eliminates the need for internal part replacements and reduces long-term costs.
-
Heat Reduction: Keeps samples cooler during longer runs, preserving the integrity of temperature-sensitive specimens like blood or urine.
Intuitive Controls and Versatile Applications
The user interface features a bright, easy-to-read LCD display with intuitive push-button controls. Lab technicians can set the built-in timer for up to 99 minutes or choose the continuous run mode for specialized tasks. The digital speed accuracy of ±50RPM ensures that your protocols are repeatable and compliant with strict laboratory standards.
Whether you are performing routine diagnostics or specialized research, the XC50S3 is an ideal choice for:
-
Clinical Diagnostics: Efficiently processing serum, plasma, and urine samples.
-
Biochemical Research: Ideal for qualitative analysis and sedimentation tasks.
-
Educational Training: A durable and safe option for university and high school science labs.
-
Veterinary Clinics: A reliable workhorse for routine blood work and specialized sample preparation.
Maintenance for your XC50S3 Low Speed Desktop Centrifuge
To ensure the long-term reliability and precision of your XC50S3 Low Speed Desktop Centrifuge, we recommend following a routine maintenance schedule. Because this unit features a brushless motor, internal mechanical maintenance is minimal, but keeping the exterior and rotor assembly clean is vital for laboratory safety.
-
Rotor Care: After each use, inspect the 8-place swing rotor for any spills or debris. Clean the buckets and the rotor chamber with a mild, non-corrosive disinfectant to prevent cross-contamination.
-
Balancing Samples: Always ensure that tubes are loaded symmetrically. Operating an unbalanced XC50S3 Low Speed Desktop Centrifuge can lead to excessive vibration and may trigger the safety sensors to stop the run.
-
Lid Seal Inspection: Periodically check the rubber gasket around the lid. A proper seal is necessary to ensure the XC50S3 Low Speed Desktop Centrifuge operates quietly and maintains a stable internal environment during high-speed runs.
-
Professional Calibration: We suggest an annual speed and timer calibration to verify that the digital LCD readout matches the actual centrifugal force (RCF) being applied to your samples.
