Ohaus® Frontier™ 5000 Series Micro Centrifuges

Frontier 5515 and 5515R microliter benchtop centrifuges provide high-speed operation for spin-down applications requiring a wide variety of tube volumes and capacities. With refrigeration capabilities (FC5515R), 10 acceleration/deceleration settings, multiple safety features, and an unmatched capacity, Frontier provides stable liquid separation for life science applications requiring high-speed operation. The intuitive control panel with rotary knob puts the centrifuges simple operations at your fingertips, including the ability to set and recall speed and g-force, as well as control the temperature (FC5515R only). They feature a powerful brushless induction motor, 10 acceleration and deceleration settings, and memory for up to 99 commonly-used parameters. Among Frontiers safety attributes are a motorized lid locking system and a rotor imbalance sensor that stops the centrifuge if the rotors become imbalanced or sudden shock occurs, protecting the operator from by the high-speed spinning rotors. Compatible with seven different rotors, the highly-versatile Frontier can be used for various applications of different volumes.
