The robotic versions of model ROTANTA 46 RSC are refrigerated centrifuges with PC control and rotor positioning. Designed for automatic sample processing they perform routine laboratory tasks efficiently and economically especially in genetic and pharmaceutical research.
Monotonous and repetitive operations or analyses bearing a high rsik of infection no longer need to be carried out by laboratory personnel. Therefore, robotic centrifuges are valuable working aids in the automated laboratory.
A hatch in the lid opening before and after every centrifuging cycle allows loading and unloading of the centrifuge with a robotic arm. Hettich ROBOTIC centrifuges stand out for state-of-art technology and conformity to strictest safety standards.
Their robust and sturdy design guarantees troublefree 24-hour continuous service.
Features of the ROTANTA 46 RSC ROBOTIC centrifuges
Performance:
Speed n = 6,200 min-1 with a 2-place swing-out rotor that corresponds to a max. RCF of 6,446-1. High Capacity up to 4 x 750 ml, or 16 x MTP, or 4 x DWP or comparable systems. Efficient Cooling Temperature is steplessly controllable within a range of -20°C to +40°C. Memory Up to 89 complete running programmes can be memorized and recalled by their storing number Drive Frequency-controlled drive, virtually maintenance-free
Safety:
Housing and lid of metal Centrifuging chamber of stainless steel Panelling finished in scratch nd impact resistant coating Lid locking Hatch locking emergency lid lock release Imbalance switch-off Motor and chamber overheating protection Excess temperature protection of the rotor is stationary Additional control of the data transfer
Reliable and enduring partners for automated laboratories More and More, modern technology is moving into laboratories. In pharmaceutical research labs for example new methods to reduce animal tests to a minimum are applied. Many new drugs are no longer tried on animals bot on cells, which necessitates the use of centrifuges. The ROTANTA 46 RSC ROBOTIC now also permits the integration of centrifuging operations into automated laboratory routines. All functions of the centrifuge can be remote-controlled. If necessary, commands can also be entered manually on the centrifuge´s control panel. Buckets The hatches correspond to the size of the buckets. Featuring a larger hatch model No. 4815 is designe dto accept microlitration plates and comparable systems as well as bottles. Featuring a somewhat smaller hatch model No. 4815-10 is designed to accept buckets for accommodating tubes.
ROTANTA 46 RSC ROBOTIC centrifuges can be integrated in any workstation. In addition to standars accessories Hettich also manufactures special buckets an inserts tailored to the requirements of the customers. Speak with us about the details ! The centrifuge is remote-controlled by optical data transmission
The centrifuge that reads to you ! The controlling PC requires a free RS 232 interface. A 9-pole RS 232 cable is supplied with the centrifuge ! A transformer (opto data box) converts the RS 232 signals into light. Every ROTANTA 46 RSC ROBOTIC centrifuge is supplied with an opto data box and an optical cable.
Fully developed microprocessor technology ensures troublefree operation
All functions of the centrifuge can be remote-controlled. Status infomation like standstill, accerlation, centrifuging, cycle, lid, rotor, position, etc. can be inquired. The position of the buckets is programmable. Positioning: The driving motor positions the rotor and firmly holds it in the required bucket position under the hatch. The exact position of the buckets is adjustable, The positioning accuray of every rotor position is < 0.6 mm ! After every centrifuging cycle the drive automatically turns the rotor to position No.1.
