The Z233M-2 and Z233MK-2 Microcentrifuges are designed for high speed centrifugation of micro samples. Five different rotors are available, with capacities from 18 to 64 samples. The rotors and adapters allow processing of tubes from 0.2 ml to 2.0 ml. Precise control over a wide speed range makes the Z233 series valuable for a variety of applications including microfiltration, cell separations and pelleting of nucleic acids and proteins.

Both the ambient Z233M-2 and refrigerated Z233MK-2 feature user-friendly, microprocessor control panels for programming run parameters. Rotor speed/g-force, run time and temperature (refrigerated unit only) are set using easy to turn knobs while their values are shown on digital displays. During a run, the touch of a button switches display between actual and preset values.
The maintenance-free, induction drive motors are extremely quite and provide quick acceleration to a maximum speed of 14,000rpm (18,620 x g). Acceleration and deceleration rates can be set at fast, for efficient sample separation or slow, for the protection of delicate samples.

Operation of these centrifuges can be timed, from one to sixty minutes, or set for continuous run. The “quick” button activates a momentary spin. The unit will run at the preset speed and elapsed time will be displayed while the “quick” button is pressed.
