Key Benefits

Several daily bottlenecks ease when you work with the versatile and compact Sigma 2-16KL Refrigerated Centrifuge.

Efficiency

Capacity of 4 x 100 ml in a swing-out rotor or 6 x 50 ml in a fixed-angle rotor lets you process larger batches per run.

Accuracy

Precisely adjustable refrigeration holds temperature from -10 to +40 °C during the spin.

Safety and comfort

Noise stays at 53 dB(A) or lower, and the compact design fits in most labs.
