SAFETY FIRST

An electronic interlock prevents operation of the lid release button while the rotor is in motion. An indicator light signals when the rotor has come to rest and the lid may be opened safely. An override key is provided for emergency uses.

PRACTICALITY

The Kestrel centrifuge weighs only 4.5 kg meaning you can easily carry it from one laboratory to the next, or use it for off-site research purposes. The small footprint makes it an ideal choice in laboratories where space is a premium.

RELIABILITY

More than 85 years of experience in the industry. Robust and easy to last. High-level final quality control before dispatch from our factory.

VERSATILITY

The rotor is designed in such a way to ensure noise and vibration levels are minimised whilst the centrifuge is in operation, even at maximum speed. With speed upto 6000 RPM it only creates 56dB(A) of noise.

EASE OF USE

Maintenance free, brushless drive. spare parts available for a long time with easy access for maintenance and repair. A range of tubes can be used in the Kestrel centrifuge, from the standard 15 ml Vacutainer® blood tube to the 10ml Sarstedt Monovette®.
