Microcentrifuges and minicentrifuges
Frontier 5000 Series Micro and Mini – high-speed microcentrifuges/compact microcentrifuges
The OHAUS Frontier 5000 Series Micro compact, high-speed microcentrifuges are designed specifically for PCR and DNA/RNA workflows and the processing of low-volume samples. The instruments feature rapid acceleration and braking, as well as high RCF values, ensuring efficient and reproducible centrifugation.
Depending on the model, IVD certification is also available, making them suitable for molecular biology, analytical and diagnostic applications.
A wide range of rotors and accessories is available for the series, enabling flexible adaptation to different tube sizes and applications.
They are an ideal choice for laboratories where high-speed microcentrifugation, versatility and reliable performance are essential requirements.
The Frontier 5000 Series Mini is an extremely compact, easy-to-use microcentrifuge ideal for the rapid separation of small-volume samples. Despite its small size, it features a powerful motor and stable operation, making it excellent for PCR preparation, clinical samples, teaching and routine tasks. One-button control, rapid acceleration/deceleration, a safety lid lock and automatic shutdown ensure simple and safe operation.
