ALab™ DG1616 High-Speed Centrifuge & DG1616R High-Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge
Product Detail
ALab™ DG1616 High-Speed Centrifuge & DG1616R High-Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge — 16,000 rpm / 28,621 ×g, 4×400mL capacity, touch control, 100 programs and a brushless DC motor; the DG1616R adds refrigeration from −10°C to 40°C.

The DG1616 and DG1616R are high speed centrifuges with a smart touch control interface, a maximum speed of 16,000 rpm (300–16000rpm in 1 rpm increments) and a maximum RCF of 28,621 ×g, with a maximum capacity of 4×400mL. The DG1616R is the refrigerated model with a temperature setting of −10°C to 40°C; it cools from room temperature to 4°C in as fast as 7 minutes. Both models use a brushless DC motor (noise level ≤70dB), store up to 100 programs, offer nine acceleration and deceleration levels with soft braking, and include built-in dynamic balance detection with an automatic rotor imbalance warning. The catalogue rotor and adapter tables with the factory Cat. Nos are listed in full below.
