The compact Sorvall® Stratos refrigerated high speed tabletop centrifuge features a whisper-quiet spindle drive -- unique for a tabletop centrifuge -- that allows 9 different fixed-angle, microliter, swinging bucket and microplate rotor types to be spun at speeds to 23,300 rpm (50,377 x g).
Spindle drive technology enables very short acceleration and braking times for faster sample throughput, and significantly extends instrument life. Imbalance sensitivity is reduced to the point where tubes can be balanced by eye alone, and sample disturbance under breaking is kept to a minimum.
Sample capacity ranges from 4 x 180 ml (or four microplates) in the instrument’s swinging bucket rotors to a maximum of 24 x 1.5 or 2 ml tubes in microliter rotors. The rotor inventory of the Stratos also spans four different biocontained fixed-angle varieties. A wide range of adapters is available for popular tube sizes down to 0.2 ml.

Features of Sorvall Stratos
For processing large sample volumes - typically from bioreactors and fermentors - rapidly and reliably in a single run, our Sorvall Stratos centrifuge is available with continuous flow operation.
The Sorvall Contifuge Stratos centrifuge is a more convenient and faster solution over conventional batch separations, quickly separating large volumes of suspension with a low solid mater content, resulting in high yields. A moveable centrifuge cart makes the entire system portable.
