Veterinary Multi-purpose Benchtop Centrifuges
In veterinary diagnostics, the ability to process diverse sample types—from delicate urine sediments to dense equine blood samples—is critical. Our Veterinary Multi-purpose Benchtop Centrifuges bridge the gap between high-speed performance and low-speed precision, providing a single-unit solution for modern animal hospitals, research labs, and livestock clinics.
PRODUCT DETAILS
In veterinary diagnostics, the ability to process diverse sample types—from delicate urine sediments to dense equine blood samples—is critical. Our Veterinary Multi-purpose Benchtop Centrifuges bridge the gap between high-speed performance and low-speed precision, providing a single-unit solution for modern animal hospitals, research labs, and livestock clinics.
Comprehensive Application Range
Our benchtop series is designed to support the full clinical workflow of a veterinary practice:
Clinical Biochemistry: High-speed separation of blood to obtain high-quality, non-hemolyzed serum.
Regenerative Medicine (PRP): Specialized settings for Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, widely used in canine and equine sports medicine for joint and tendon healing.
Reproductive Technology: Used in livestock management for semen processing and artificial insemination (AI) protocols.
Parasitology: Efficient fecal processing for routine wellness screenings in companion animals and livestock.
Cross-Species Compatibility: From Exotics to Equine
A veterinary centrifuge must be as diverse as the patients it serves. Our equipment features adjustable protocols tailored to:
Companion Animals (Canine & Feline): Standardized presets for common blood and urine volumes (2ml - 10ml tubes).
Equine & Large Animals: Robust motors capable of handling larger 15ml or 50ml tubes required for horse blood chemistry and reproductive work.
Exotics & Avian: Micro-volume rotors (0.2ml/0.5ml) designed for the very small blood samples taken from birds, reptiles, and pocket pets.
Livestock (Bovine/Porcine): Durable construction for high-throughput testing in herd health management and disease surveillance.
Key Performance Features:
Brushless DC Motor Drive: Maintenance-free operation with rapid acceleration and deceleration, ensuring your samples are processed quickly without mechanical wear.
Variable Speed & RCF Control: Easily toggle between RPM (Revolutions Per Minute) and RCF (Relative Centrifugal Force) to ensure adherence to specific diagnostic protocols for various animal species.
Advanced Safety Interlock: The lid remains electronically locked until the rotor has come to a complete stop, preventing aerosolization of biohazardous samples.
Quiet Operation (<55dB): Engineered with vibration-dampening technology to ensure a quiet lab environment, critical for small animal practices.
Compact Footprint: Designed to fit on standard clinic countertops without sacrificing stability.
High Speed vs. Low Speed
Low-Speed Precision
Gentle acceleration and deceleration are the keys to maintaining the structural integrity of fragile biological components.
Urinalysis: Low-speed centrifugation prevents the rupturing of casts and epithelial cells, ensuring clear microscopic identification.
Fecal Flotation: Optimized for the concentration of parasite eggs and oocysts without destroying their morphology.
Cell Washing & Cytology: Delicate handling for cytology brush samples and fluid aspirates.
SPECIFICATIONS
Versatile Applications in Veterinary Medicine
Our benchtop centrifuges are configured to support a wide range of clinical workflows:
Hematology & Serum Separation: Rapidly separate serum or plasma from whole blood for chemistry profiles. Ideal for canine, feline, and equine blood samples.
Urinalysis (Sedimentation): Gentle low-speed settings preserve the integrity of casts and cells in urine samples, providing clearer microscopic results.
Fecal Flotation: Effectively concentrate parasite eggs for more accurate screening of gastrointestinal health.
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Therapy: Suitable for orthopedic and regenerative medicine procedures in equine and canine sports medicine.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this unit handle the heavy workload of a large animal clinic?
A: Absolutely. Our benchtop models are built with carbon-fiber or high-grade alloy rotors designed for continuous use. The induction motor is brushless, meaning no carbon dust and significantly less heat buildup during back-to-back equine blood runs.
Q: Are there specific rotors for different animal species?
A: While the centrifuge is universal, the rotor choice matters. We offer micro-rotors for avian/small animal clinics and high-capacity swing-out rotors for large animal practices. Most clinics find our "Universal Swing-out Rotor" with adaptors to be the most versatile for all species.
Q: How do I ensure my PCV results are accurate?
A: Our high-speed micro-hematocrit rotors are calibrated for consistent G-force. We recommend using our dedicated PCV reader cards alongside the centrifuge for standardized results across feline, canine, and equine patients.
Q: Is it difficult to change the rotors?
A: Not at all. Our "Quick-Lock" system allows you to swap rotors using a single tool (included), making it easy to switch from a standard blood rotor to a specialized one in less than a minute.
