Anatune CF 100 Robotic Centrifuge

• For use with the GERSTEL Multi Purpose Sampler
• Generate RCF of up to 575 G at 3,000 RPM
• Can vortex mix and centrifuge samples

Introduction

As sample automation becomes increasingly important to more and more laboratories; the ability to automate processes that involve sedimentation steps is vital. Anatune’s CF 100 compact centrifuge enables samples contained in 2ml chromatography vials, to be spun down as part of a fully automated procedure.

Features

The CF 100 is designed to fit onto the GERSTEL Multi Purpose Sampler; it can be fully integrated with the hardware and controlled via GERSTEL’s Maestro software.

External control lines permit the centrifuge to be started and stopped automatically. The centrifuge rotor comes to rest in exactly the same position every time and a hardware safety interlock ensures that the MPS cannot attempt to access the centrifuge while the rotor is turning. Centrifuge speed is adjustable up to a maximum of 3,000 RPM. The instrument also has a vortex mixing function that permits the contents of vials to be mixed before centrifugation. The CF 100 provides mixing that is much more aggressive than can be achieved by the standard MPS agitator. It is ideal for taking solid samples up into suspension.
