IEC Centra CL3 Benchtop Laboratory Centrifuge with Rotor

IEC Centra CL3 Benchtop Laboratory Centrifuge with Rotor

The IEC Centra CL3 Benchtop Laboratory Centrifuge with Rotor is a high-speed, multipurpose centrifuge for medical, industrial, and scientific sample-processing applications. The Centra-CL3 series supports a range of rotor formats and laboratory vessels, allowing centrifugation workflows to be adapted to different sample types. The supplied product name identifies the unit as a CL3 centrifuge with a rotor, while the exact rotor configuration should be confirmed against the particular unit offered.

Manufacturer operating documentation describes the CL3 series as a bench-top centrifuge capable of processing tubes, bottles, microplates, microcapillary tubes, and microsample tubes. Controlled acceleration and braking can be used to support different separation requirements, while programmed operation allows repeated runs using stored parameters. A fail-safe cover interlock is part of the series design.

Applications

Centra CL3 centrifuges are suitable for laboratory workflows involving sample separation, concentration, cell processing, clinical laboratory preparation, and general scientific centrifugation. Rotor and adapter selection determines the compatible vessel type, capacity, maximum speed, and corresponding centrifugal force.

Because the supplied item includes a rotor but does not identify its catalog number, buyers should verify the actual rotor configuration before selecting tube adapters or calculating process capacity. Published specifications describe the CL3 model and applicable rotor configurations and do not establish the condition or performance of the individual unit.
