•  Includes easy access rotor with optional StripSpin
• Quiet operation with easy to use control panel
• Quick acceleration and deceleration time  

The Prism™ ambient microcentrifuge is designed to keep samples close to ambient temperature, even when operating at maximum speed. It can also be used in a cold room.  

Speed is easily set and displayed in either rpm or rcf. Unit operation can be timed, continuous or momentary using the "Quick" button. Vibration free operation is ensured by an isolation system. In the event of a significant imbalance, operation of the centrifuge is automatically stopped for safety. Deceleration at the end of a run is very quick but will not disrupt samples.  

The Prism™ centrifuge is supplied with a uniquely designed 24 x 1.5/2.0 mL rotor that allows easy access to the tops of the sample tubes along their length and contains the sample in the event of tube failure. Adapters are available for smaller tubes as well as PCR strips. The rotor is seated on a tapered shaft which facilitates easy removal for cleaning and autoclaving.

The PR1MA™ High Speed Microcentrifuge is the first and only compact microcentrifuge capable of achieving centrifugal speeds up to the critical threshold of 16,000 x g, often held as the standard for many molecular biology/DNA protocols. Its  brushless, maintenance free drive system makes it powerful, yet compact enough to allow each work station to be fully equipped with a personal centrifuge.

The PR1MA™ High Speed Microcentrifuge defines a new class of microcentrifuge: compact, quick, powerful and affordable. All aspects of microcentrifuge performance were taken into consideration and no compromises were made. In addition to its unsurpassed speed, it also delivers shortened acceleration/deceleration times, whisper quiet operation and its computer-designed airflow pattern minimizes sample temperature increases during longer runs at high speeds.

All operating parameters are set using a single, conveniently located control knob and the large, bright LCD provides a clear indication of time and rpm or g-force. A separate momentary spin button permits instant spin downs, without setting or disturbing any preset parameters. The aircraft grade aluminum rotor accepts 1.5 to 2.0 mL tubes directly, as well as 0.5 mL and 0.2 mL tubes with optional adapters. For applications requiring sub-ambient temperatures, the microcentrifuge is cold room safe.

The new Labnet Prism R is quickly becoming the benchmark in the refrigerated microcentrifuge category. In spite of its remarkably small footprint, the Prism R has a powerful brushless motor and cooling capacity to spare. The new user-friendly LCD control panel provides intuitive control over all operating parameters, including speed, time and temperature.

Speed can be set in rpm, up to 13,500 rpm in increments of 100 rpm, or rcf, up to 17,135 x g in increments of 100 x g. Operation of the centrifuge can be timed, from 0.5 to 99 minutes, or continuous. A momentary spin function is activated by pressing and holding the quick key. The powerful refrigeration system maintains temperatures as low as -10° C and is designed to reach 4° C (from room temperature) in less than 8 minutes.

The brushless motor drive quickly and effortlessly accelerates the rotor to set speed. A computer designed isolation system ensures vibration free operation, even with a slight imbalance. The Prism R is also equipped with an imbalance detection system that automatically shuts down operation in the event of a significant imbalance. Deceleration at the end of a run is attained in less than 18 seconds, yet will not disrupt samples.

The unique design of the 24 place rotor allows easy access to the tops of sample tubes. Individual tube slots in the solid aluminum rotor support the tubes along their length and contain sample in the event of tube failure. The rotor accepts 1.5/2.0ml tubes directly and smaller tubes through the use of adapters, sold separately. An optional StripSpin adapter snaps on to the top of the rotor for spinning 0.2ml tubes and PCR strips. The rotor is seated on a tapered shaft which facilitates easy removal of the rotor for cleaning and autoclaving.
