Thermo Scientific Fiberlite LEX centrifuge rotor series

The Thermo Scientific Fiberlite LEX centrifuge rotor series combines lower rotor mass for improved ergonomics performance and safety. The Fiberlite F10-4x1000 LEX and Fiberlite F12-6x500 LEX rotors are particularly light, providing RCF up to 16,880 and 24,515 xg respectively to maximise productivity. Suitable for use in biomedical and microbiological laboratories, the rotors provide multiple levels of protection against biological agents and infectious substances, enhancing biosafety, without compromising functionality.

The rotors couple the durability of corrosion- and fatigue-resistant carbon fibre rotors with up to 60% reduction in weight. Lower weight, combined with the rotor’s lifting handle, improves ergonomics for everyday safety and ease of handling. To further enhance safety, the rotors feature a dual-locking lid that provides sample containment by enabling the rotor to remain sealed while being transported to a biocontainment hood. The rotors also feature Bioseal technology and enhanced liquid containment (ELC), which prevents biohazardous samples from escaping to the surrounding environment if spilled.
