Applications in the catalogue

PRP and plasma preparation: TF-1 and TF-3; match the configuration to the specified tubes or syringes.
Cytology: XJ-8 and XJ-12 cytocentrifuges for transferring cells to slides.
Haematocrit: TG12 for compatible capillaries and the required measurement workflow.

Information needed for selection

Provide the method, container dimensions, sample count, RCF, run duration and consumable requirements. Confirm that the offered rotor, holders and accessories support the intended procedure.

What to compare before ordering

Criterion	What to verify
Rotor and protocol	Required RCF, rotor type and permitted operating conditions of the combination
Containers	Tube volume and dimensions, lids, buckets and adapters
Throughput	Samples per cycle, run duration and frequency
Temperature and control	Cooling requirement, programmes, acceleration and braking

Questions before selection and procurement

Why is maximum rpm insufficient for selection?

Compare the protocol’s required RCF for the specific rotor. Maximum speed and maximum capacity may refer to different rotors on the same centrifuge.

Are the rotor and adapters included in the price?

Check the quotation specification. List every tube or container format and the required buckets, adapters and lids.

How is the need for cooling determined?

Use the method’s temperature requirements, run duration and sample characteristics. Verify cooling capability and operating conditions for the selected instrument and rotor.

What is needed to compare quotations?

A technical specification and an equivalent equipment list for each option. Specify quantity, installation or use location, compatible accessories and documentation requirements. This supports comparison of the complete cost of the required solution.

Configuration and documentation

Record the exact model, version, standard equipment and optional items in the quotation. Request the manual and specification with the conditions under which performance figures are determined. Agree procurement documentation, availability, delivery, warranty and service work for the specific supply.
