Drucker Diagnostics Dash Apex 12 Set-and-Lock STAT Centrifuge with 12 Tubes Capacity

The Dash Apex 12 STAT centrifuge offers simple controls and powerful performance to minimize lab error, reduce turnaround time, and streamline training. The user-friendly two-button interface makes it easier than ever to select a preset or program your custom validated STAT cycles. LED lid lighting indicates when the centrifuge is ready to load (off), running (on), or done (flashing) and prevents forgotten samples, even in the busiest labs. Each centrifuge comes ready to run with the rotor, tube holders, and warranty included in the affordable price.



Easy to monitor: Prevent forgotten samples and reduce TAT with LED lid lighting (patent pending). Bright lights indicate when the centrifuge is ready to load (off), running (on), or done (flashing). Lights continue flashing until the lid is opened.



Easy to use: The simple two-button interface makes it easy to select a preset or program your custom validated STAT cycles. Use all three presets, or set and lock to a single cycle for maximum repeatability. Spin 75-100 mm (3-10 mL) tubes with the same rotor and universal tube holders.



Eliminate wait time: Further shorten TAT by using a centrifuge array in accessioning to eliminate queuing. The array takes advantage of the DASH Apex’s compact size to allow samples to be spun as soon as they arrive.



Safe and durable: Enjoy years of worry-free operation with the DASH Apex’s brushless motor and rugged, reinforced carbon fiber components. Enhance lab safety with imbalance protection and a clear, shatterproof lid, which locks until the centrifuge has stopped completely.



A Great value: Each centrifuge comes ready to run with a horizontal rotor, universal tube holders, and warranty included in the affordable price.



Cool Operation: Unique design of the motor housing and rotation chamber keeps specimens cool as required by CLSI H21-A5, even under the heaviest workloads.







2-Stage Horizontal Rotor: Our patented swing-out horizontal rotor design incorporates a unique test tube holder that produces the ideal horizontally separated samples.
