The model 642E is a compact single-speed centrifuge designed to provide the ideal pre-analytic sample processing performance recommended by all collection tube manufacturers. Using patented rotor technology, the 642E reduces blood separation processing times by 33% while minimizing use of valuable counter space for the doctor’s office or lab. The performance of the 642E reduces patient redraws by keeping your patient samples cool during processing, providing a high quality and stable gel layer, and maximizing sample integrity. It’s no wonder that the 642E is the world’s best-selling clinical laboratory centrifuge.
Easy to use: Spin samples with the press of just one button. The 642E processes 75-100 mm(3-10 mL) tubes for chemistry, coag, and PPP.
Simple settings: The 642E features a preset runtime of 10 minutes at 1,600 xg for all common chemistry needs.
Built to last: No routine maintenance. The brushless motor and unique convection-based cooling system ensure years of high-quality separations
Engineered for safety: Protect your lab with the clear, shatterproof lid, which locks until the centrifuge has stopped completely
A great value: Get the world’s #1 clinical laboratory centrifuge at a price that fits any budget. The unit arrives ready for use with the horizontal rotor, tube holders.
2-Stage horizontal rotor: Our patented swing-out horizontal rotor design incorporates a unique test tube holder that produces the ideal horizontally separated samples.
