Hettich Instruments, the North American division of Hettich-Zentrifugen, a worldwide leader in centrifuge production and development, will be showcasing their new Rotina 420 centrifuge at this year's PITTCON exhibition, Booth 1530. This large capacity bench-top centrifuge is ideal for blood tubes and micro plates.

The Rotina 420 comes available in non-refrigerated (420) and refrigerated (420R) versions with a maximum capacity of 2 liters (4 x 600 ml). Capable of spinning 140 blood collection tubes or 16 microlitre plates the 420 is perfect for applications in clinical chemistry, in biotechnology and in life science research facilities. Noise dampening technology, self-diagnostic testing and 98 user-defined programs round out this highly versatile centrifuge.

In addition, Hettich will be displaying their Mikro 200 microlitre centrifuge. Considered among the fastest centrifuges in their class, the Mikro 200 has a maximum speed of 14,000 RPM and a RCF of 18,626. Able to accommodate PCR Strips, Cryo and microlitre tubes, the Mikro 200 is available in both refrigerated and classic versions.

Also on display at the Hettich exhibit will be the Universal 320 bench-top centrifuge and compact Mikro 120 centrifuges.
