Sorvall RC 5C Plus Superspeed Centrifuge     

Proven Reliability
Heavy-duty, direct drive motor system. Reliable, low maintenance and top performance without belts, gears or vacuum requirements.

Durable, high-capacity refrigeration system. Maintains operating temperatures without the need for a vacuum system

User and Environmentally Friendly
CFC replacement coolant. Uses DuPont SUVA CFC replacement coolant in an improved, standard refrigeration system to provide efficient cooling, while helping to preserve the environment

Noise suppression design. High-efficiency motor and refrigeration designs lead to 50% quieter operation than previous models

Less heat output for more comfort. More efficient refrigeration and drive designs lead to 20% less heat output than previous models

Rear-directed air-flow. Permits side-by-side placement of instruments and increases operator comfort

Electrical door interlock system. Assures the door is locked prior to and during the operation, until the rotor safely stops.

Rotor containment system. Heavy-duty steel guard surrounding the rotor chamber for maximum safety
