Sorvall RC-5C Plus Superspeed Centrifuge

  • Easy to operate, both models reach a maximum rotor speed and maintain the desired temperature without the use of a vacuum system
  • The operator can set speed, time, and temperature in any order and can change parameters at any time during the run
  • Both models have a door interlock which prevents the centrifuge door from opening when the rotor begins to accelerate
  • RC 5C has microprocessor control, uses thumblevers to control settings, LED display of operating parameters
  • RC 5C has RCF mode for g force calculation
  • RC 5C has auto rate control setting for density gradient work
  • RC 5C has omega squared dt calculation for run to run reproducibility
  • RC 5C has built in automatic temperature calculation

Complete Product Description

The RC-5C Plus offers simplicity of operation and durability for intensive use. User-friendly controls make set-up simple even for inexperienced users, speeding up parameter setting and reducing errors. The industry’s widest rotor range – spanning fixed angle, swinging bucket, vertical, microtube, zonal, and continuous flow types – means unrivalled levels of superspeed versatility. Other benefits include:

Reliable, dependable operation
The durable, high capacity refrigeration system maintains precise operating temperatures without the need for a vacuum. Direct drive motors, with no belts or gears, reduce maintenance and system noise. The patented gyro system protects the drive from damage should rotor imbalance occur.

Simplicity, ease of use
Intuitive levers or knobs make parameter setting fast and easy Both set and actual parameters are visible at all times User-defined sample over-temperature protection assures sample integrity Imbalance tolerant gyro permits eye balancing of tube contents and rotor load

Proven, practical performance
Easy to use controls for programming run conditions High visibility analog displays and lighted indicators Run conditions can be set in any sequence and changed at any time.

Accurate speed control from 500 to 21,000 rpm
