Characteristics of the
Heraeus Pico 17 / 21
Several rotors with a wide range of tubes can be used.
The set speed is reached within seconds. The maintenance-free induction motor ensures quiet and
low-vibration operation even at high speeds, and guarantees a very long lifetime.
The user-friendly control panel makes it easy to pre-set the speed, RCF value, run time, and
temperature. You can choose between the display of speed and RCF or the entry mode.
These settings can be changed even while the centrifuge is running.
With the help of the
key , you can also centrifuge a sample for just a few seconds, if called for.
The
Heraeus Pico 17 / 21
is equipped with various safety features:
•
The housing is made of impact-resistant plastic and the interior of armor steel.
•
