The Sigma 3-17KT Refrigerated Benchtop Centrifuge, 230 V (100025) is a versatile laboratory centrifuge combining high-capacity processing with precision-controlled cooling from -20 to +40°C. It reaches speeds up to 16,400 rpm and a maximum RCF of 25,559 × g, while supporting swing-out capacities up to 4 × 400 mL.
Key Features
- High-speed separation performance, reaching up to 16,400 rpm and 25,559 × g with a compatible fixed-angle rotor
- Large swing-out capacity, accommodating up to 4 × 400 mL for a total volume of 1.6 L
- Flexible fixed-angle capacity, supporting configurations up to 6 × 94 mL
- Precisely controlled refrigeration, with an adjustable temperature range from -20 to +40°C
- Rapid Temp precooling, allowing the centrifuge chamber and accessories to be cooled to a defined temperature before operation
- Spincontrol T touch operation, providing clear menu navigation and direct access to operating parameters
- Up to 99 programmable methods, supporting repeatable processing across routine laboratory workflows
- USB run-data export, enabling centrifugation records to be transferred for documentation and traceability
- Automatic rotor identification, helping ensure the installed rotor is recognised before operation
- Integrated safety monitoring, including imbalance detection and rotor life-cycle tracking
- Energy-saving ECO Mode, reducing display brightness and switching off the cooling compressor after a configurable idle period
- Compact benchtop footprint, measuring 337 × 460 × 716 mm while providing high-capacity centrifugation
Benefits
- Protects temperature-sensitive samples through controlled refrigeration and rapid chamber precooling.
- Supports both high-throughput swing-out processing and high-speed fixed-angle separations on one platform.
- Improves method consistency by allowing frequently used centrifugation settings to be stored and recalled.
- Strengthens documentation and quality-management workflows through USB run-data export.
- Helps reduce operating noise and energy consumption during periods of inactivity through ECO Mode.
- Accommodates varied tubes, bottles and microplates through a broad selection of compatible rotors and adapters.
