Details

The Thermo Scientific CL31 Multispeed centrifuge series combines unsurpassed versatility with exceptional speed, capacity and safety, making it a complete solution for all of your sample preparation needs.

Unparalleled Flexibility

• The Thermo Scientific CL31 Series' extensive set of rotors, buckets and adapters addresses every protocol of the routine biology, cell culturing and research lab.

• The Thermo Scientific CL31 Series delivers high capacity in a compact footprint. You can run 16 x 50 mL, 60 x 5/7 mL, 30 x 15 mL or 60 x 1.5 mL tubes, cell culture bottles or microplates–without giving up precious bench space.

• With its fast acceleration and a PULSE key for short runs, the Thermo Scientific CL31 Series is also ideally suited for micro-volume applications.

• With the Thermo Scientific CL31 Series, the radius can be precisely specified for every insert, resulting in a precise set and display of the RCF.

Advanced Design

• The AUTO-LOCK® rotor exchange system lets you change rotors in seconds, allowing you to change protocols quickly and perform cleaning tasks with ease.

• The Thermo Scientific CL31 Series' brushless induction motor is designed to provide years of service.

Protection

• The Thermo Scientific CL31 supports a protected laboratory environment with a full set of sealed accessories, tested by CAMR* in Porton Down, England, the gold-standard in biological safety testing.

• Quiet operation minimizes distractions.

• The CL31R centrifuge uses an ozone-friendly, CFC-free refrigerant for compliance with environmental protection regulations.

Ease of Use

• A simple, intuitive control panel gives you single keystroke access to your frequently-used programs.

• G-force run control ensures transferability of your protocols from other centrifuges, without cross referencing to RPM.

• CAMR is now incorporated within the UK Health Protection Agency (HPA.)

The Thermo Scientific CL31 Multispeed Series offers a high-capacity, 48 x 2 mL carbon fiber rotor. This advanced material is easier to manage and offers a safer alternative to conventional metallic rotors, which can crack with age. Capable of supporting higher capacities and higher G-forces, the 48-place carbon fiber rotor also provides a high level of chemical resistance against corrosive agents, making it a truly cost effective investment for your lab.
