User-Friendly and Reliable OperationDesigned with an intuitive manual interface, this unit features easy-to-read LCD backlit displays, mechanical lid lock, and manual rotor recognition. With 10 acceleration/deceleration levels, running modes like Continuous and Quickspin, and an extended timer range, you can tailor operation for specific protocols while ensuring safety and reproducible results.
FAQ's of FC5513 230V Frontier 5000 Series Micro:
Q: How do I select the correct rotor type for the FC5513 Micro Centrifuge?
A: The FC5513 supports both angle rotors (24 x 1.5/2.0 ml tubes) and hematocrit rotors (24 capillaries). Rotor selection depends on your application-use the angle rotor for general microtube processing and the hematocrit rotor for capillary blood samples. Rotor recognition is manual, so always verify correct installation before use.
Q: What is the process for operating the FC5513 centrifuge?
A: Begin by loading the samples evenly into the appropriate rotor and securing the lid using the mechanical lock. Use the manual controls to set speed (200-13,500 rpm), acceleration/deceleration profiles, and run time (from 10 seconds up to 99 hours). Monitor progress on the LCD backlight display, and select either continuous run or Quickspin mode as needed.
Q: Where can the FC5513 Micro Centrifuge be installed?
A: This centrifuge is best suited for laboratory environments with ambient temperatures between 2C and 35C and humidity levels up to 80% RH (non-condensing). Ensure it's placed on a stable surface measuring at least 356 mm (L) x 236 mm (W) x 277 mm (H) and connected to 230V AC power.
Q: What are the benefits of using the FC5513 centrifuge for laboratory workflows?
A: This model delivers fast, efficient sample separations, with a high maximum RCF, adjustable speed, and programmable timing, enhancing productivity and reliability. Its flexibility in rotor compatibility and precise control features make it suitable for a range of laboratory protocols, improving workflow efficiency and result accuracy.
Q: When should I use the quickspin mode on the FC5513?
A: Quickspin mode is ideal for short, rapid separations or quick pelleting procedures. It's particularly useful when you need only brief centrifugation intervals rather than a full programmed run, saving time for high-throughput processes.
Q: What safety features are included in the FC5513 centrifuge?
A: The FC5513 is equipped with a robust mechanical lid lock system to ensure safe operation, as well as manual rotor recognition and multiple acceleration/deceleration profiles to accommodate different sample types while reducing risk during operation.
