Features of Optima™ XE
- Large touch-screen display Displays more data. Easy to read and navigate. Viewable from across the lab.
- Energy efficient Regenerative braking returns energy to local circuit reducing utility costs. Highly efficient thermoelectric cooling results in lower power consumption. Uses the same amount of power as a 60-watt light bulb while idling.
- Total system design The Optima XE, its rotors and its labware are designed, manufactured, and tested as an integrated system to ensure optimal performance and safety for your lab.
- Zonal and continuous flow operation screens Intuitive, graphical step-by-step interface simplifies workflow
- Multilingual software Includes nine languages for error-free operation
- Improved power tolerance Maintains runs during power fluctuations. Handles a wider tolerated range of 180 VAC to 264 VAC. Tracks power interruption data to convey if parameters remained within an acceptable range.
- Quiet-drive technology Designed for lowest drive noise – this is the quietest floor model on the market. Operates at less than 51 dBA.
- Context-sensitive on-screen help Find answers easily. Reduce training time and user error.
