Allegra V-15R benchtop centrifuge launched by Beckman Coulter Life Sciences

Celebrating a 75-year legacy in centrifugation, Beckman Coulter Life Sciences launches its most versatile 3-liter benchtop centrifuge yet – the Allegra V-15R refrigerated centrifuge. Featuring 10 rotor configurations and 50 programmable runs along with a comprehensive selection of adapters, a variety of workflows and applications can be performed – from cell and blood separation to high-throughput screening.

Achieving a gravitational force of up to 20,412 x g and speeds up to 13,500 rpm, the Allegra V-15R is still a quiet companion in the lab, registering ≤ 55 dBA at max speed.

Enhanced safety features include Automatic Rotor Recognition and Rotor Cycle Count, which tracks the number of cycles by rotor model and bucket type to help labs make an informed decision about rotor maintenance and retirement. BioSafe rotors include hermetic seals which provide air- and water-tight protection and fluid containment to further eliminate leakage into the centrifuge chamber in the case of a sample tube leak.

The Allegra V-15R centrifuge also has the ability to maintain a consistent temperature, allowing users to spin faster and longer without the risk of overheating samples. Rapid Temp* allows for the chamber to be pre-cooled to a set temperature and ECO Mode allows for even more user functionality and efficiency.

Additional features include an ergonomic design with a soft-close lid for stress-free closing and an easy-to-use illuminated interface. From fixed-angle to conical fixed-angle to swinging-bucket, the extensive rotor portfolio from Beckman Coulter Life Sciences gives users flexibility and options for complex research needs.
