Hettich 1102-01 EBA 280S, Benchtop Centrifuge, 120V, 60Hz

The EBA 280 and EBA 280S offer exceptional user comfort for small centrifuges and a choice between six rotors. Thanks to a newly-developed rapid changeover system it is possible to quickly switch from one rotor to another, without the need to use any tools and with just one hand. The rotor locks automatically in place and sits securely without the need for screws or tightening. With the 1146 swing-out rotor the EBA 280 achieves an RCF of 3,112 with up to six 15-ml tubes. The higher-performance EBA 280S can achieve a maximum RCF of 5,071 with the same tubes. This corresponds to 6,000 RPM. With run-up and run-down times of 11 resp. 13 seconds, emergency samples can be processed within a few minutes.

Both models are suitable for use in medical diagnostics for the centrifugation of blood and urine samples, environmental analysis and research labs, for example for the sedimentation of cells and yeasts or to clarify water and soil samples.

Key Features include control system witih 10 programmable memories, rapid and precis setting of centrifugation time, RPM, and RCF via arrow keys, and entry of run-up and run-down times in ramps of 1 (0) to 9. The units include lid locking and holding, lid dropping protection, imbalance protection, and an emergency lid lock release.

Hettich is recognized as one of the top clinical and research centrifuge manufactures. The full range of centrifuges ranges from small benchtop microliter centrifuges, mid sized to large general purpose centrifuges to large floor standing models.
