Choosing the Right Model

The Frontier series offers four distinct designs: Multi Pro, Multi, Micro, and Mini. The FC5916 is a heavy-duty Multi Pro benchtop model, offering a massive 4 x 750 ml capacity and speeds up to 16,000 rpm for the most demanding high-throughput environments.

Size and Application

The FC5916 is an air-cooled unit ideal for high-capacity applications where temperature control below ambient is not a necessity, but large-volume processing and high RCF are required.

Rotor Selection

To simplify the selection process, Ohaus provides a comprehensive Frontier 5000 rotor guide. This guide is an invaluable tool for identifying the appropriate model for your specific requirements and selecting from the extensive range of over 20 compatible rotors.

Making Your Decision

  1. Assess your laboratory's specific volume (up to 4 x 750 ml) and high-speed (16,000 rpm) needs.
  2. Consult the Frontier 5000 rotor guide for accessory compatibility, including swing-out and fixed-angle options.
  3. Compare the features of this air-cooled model against refrigerated versions (FC5916R) if samples are temperature-sensitive.
  4. Consider future requirements to ensure long-term utility across various applications.
