Ohaus Frontier 2000 Series Micro FC2516 Centrifuge

The Ohaus Frontier 2000 Series Micro FC2516 Centrifuge is an economical, safe, and reliable high-speed centrifuge designed to deliver high-performance results in a compact footprint. Engineered for high-speed operation, this microcentrifuge reaches a maximum speed of 16,500 rpm and a force of 19,080 x g, making it an essential tool for demanding laboratory environments. Its construction features a maintenance-free brushless DC motor and a corrosion-resistant stainless steel chamber that stands up well to organic solvents, ensuring long-term durability.

The FC2516 is designed with ease of use and safety at the forefront, featuring an intuitive interface with a backlit LCD display that allows users to observe and adjust key parameters mid-run. The unit supports five different rotor options, accommodating sample volumes from 1.5 mL up to 10 mL to provide versatile processing capabilities. Safety is enhanced through a multi-safety control system, including an imbalance sensor that protects both the user and the sample by stopping operation if a rotor is improperly loaded.

Features of Ohaus Frontier 2000 Series Micro FC2516 Centrifuge:

2 Year Manufacturer Warranty: Provides reliability and peace of mind for essential laboratory operations.
High-Speed Performance: Reaches up to 16,500 rpm and 19,080 x g for efficient sample separation.
Brushless DC Motor: Offers quiet, maintenance-free operation suitable for busy shared laboratory spaces.
Stainless Steel Construction: The housing and chamber are built to resist corrosion and withstand exposure to organic solvents.
Imbalance Sensor: Integrated safety system that identifies rotor imbalances and stops operation to protect the user.
Backlit LCD Display: Provides clear visibility and easy adjustment of speed and time during active operation.
Personal Program Function: Allows users to easily set and save up to nine specific programs for routine procedures.
Automatic Lid Opening: The lid opens automatically after a run is complete to facilitate fast sample access.
Versatile Rotor Options: Accommodates five different rotors to handle various tube sizes from 1.5 mL to 10 ml.
Compact Design: Saves valuable bench space while delivering high-throughput capacity for up to 48 tubes.

The Ohaus Frontier 2000 Series Multi FC2516 Bundle:

FC2516 Centrifuge+ R-A24X2/11MS (R08) Angle Rotor

For labs looking for an all-in-one solution, the FC2516 + R-A24X2/11MS (R08) bundle provides immediate operational readiness. This bundle pairs the high-speed FC2516 power unit with the 24 x 1.5/2.0 mL sealable angle rotor R-A24X2/11MS (R08), which is ideal for high-throughput sample processing. This combination allows researchers to leverage the full 14,000 rpm speed of the R08 rotor for efficient nucleic acid isolation and protein separation right out of the box.

Recommendation:

You should choose the FC2516 + R-A24X2/11MS (R08) bundle if your primary work involves molecular biology. The 14,000 rpm speed provided by the R-A24X2/11MS (R08) rotor is necessary for efficiently pelleting nucleic acids and proteins, and the sealable biocontainment lid ensures safety when handling hazardous biological samples.

Why Choose a Pre-Configured Bundle?

Investing in a complete package for your Frontier 2000 Series centrifuge is the most efficient way to get your laboratory up and running.

Guaranteed Compatibility: Every bundle includes the centrifuge unit and the compatible rotor as a tested, factory-matched set.
Streamlined Ordering: Purchasing a bundle ensures all necessary components are delivered together, preventing delays caused by missing parts or mismatched accessories.
Optimized Performance: Pre-configured bundles are professionally balanced to meet the specific speed and safety requirements of your chosen rotor.
Cost-Efficiency: Bundles are often priced to provide better value compared to purchasing the centrifuge unit and the rotor as individual items.

Quick Compatibility Checklist

Before adding your selection to the cart, please verify your requirements against this checklist:

Tube Volume: Does your sample volume (e.g., 1.5ml, 15ml, 50ml, 100ml) match the capacity of the rotor you have selected?
Tube Type: Are you using standard round bottom tubes, conical tubes, or PCR strips?
Rotor Type: Do you require a Swing-Out Rotor for vertical sediment lines or an Angle Rotor for faster, high-speed pelleting?
Diameter/Height: Ensure the diameter and height of your tubes fall within the permitted specifications of your chosen rotor to prevent damage during high-speed rotation.

Please Note: The Ohaus Frontier 5000 Series Micro FC2516 Centrifuge base unit is sold without a rotor. This allows you to choose the specific rotor that best matches your lab's requirements.
