The CompactStar CS8 is a small ventilated bench top centrifuge designed for the separation of various samples in the fields of chemistry, life science, clinical research and routine diagnostics. The supplied rotor accepts 8×15 ml conical tubes, 8×15 ml (16×125 mm) round bottom and 8×10 ml (16×100 mm) blood collection tubes directly and smaller tubes with an included adapter set.

• Easy operation with key pad, large digital displays for time and speed (RPM or RCF)
• Indicator shows if lid is open/closed
• Quick spin button for short cycle mode
• Adjustable acceleration and deceleration

The digital microprocessor ensures that the lid has been closed and that the safety lock is engaged prior to starting a centrifugation cycle. In addition, an advanced imbalance detection system constantly monitor the balance and vibration, automatically bringing the rotor to a stop if an imbalance is detected. This centrifuge is not intended for in vitro diagnostic use.

Included tube adapters are suitable for running 5 ml (12×75 mm) and 7 ml (13×100 mm) tubes.
