What Is a High Speed Benchtop Centrifuge?
A high speed benchtop centrifuge is a compact laboratory centrifuge capable of reaching speeds of 12,000-24,000 rpm and centrifugal forces up to 41,470 x g. It is essential for applications that require rapid pelleting of subcellular particles, efficient precipitation of proteins and nucleic acids, and separation of small-volume samples. Unlike low-speed benchtop centrifuges (≤6,000 rpm), high-speed models are designed for molecular biology, biochemistry, and clinical research workflows where high g-force is critical.
Hawach high speed benchtop centrifuges are available in refrigerated and non-refrigerated versions, with capacities ranging from micro-scale (24 x 1.5/2.0 mL) to large-volume (6 x 250 mL). All models feature brushless motors, TFT-LCD touchscreens, programmable profiles, and aerosol-tight rotors for operator safety.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is considered a high speed benchtop centrifuge?
A: Typically, any benchtop centrifuge capable of ≥12,000 rpm or ≥15,000xg is considered high speed. Hawach models range up to 24,000 rpm / 41,470xg, suitable for protein precipitation and subcellular fractionation.
Q: Do I need a refrigerated high speed benchtop centrifuge?
A: If your protocol involves temperature-sensitive samples (enzymes, RNA, live cells, or prolonged runs), a refrigerated model (-20°C to +40°C) is essential. For quick spin-downs at room temperature, non-refrigerated models work well and cost less.
Q: What rotors are compatible with these high speed models?
A: Each model supports a wide range of angle rotors, swing-out rotors, and microplate rotors. Common sizes include 12×1.5/2.0 mL, 24×1.5/2.0 mL, 6×50 mL, 4×100 mL, and 6×250 mL. See the product catalog for full rotor codes.
Q: Can I use these centrifuges for PCR plate spin-down?
A: Yes. Select models support microplate rotors or PCR 8-strip rotors, ideal for PCR plate preparation.
Q: What is the noise level of high speed benchtop centrifuges?
A: Large capacity models ≤65 dB(A); standard models ≤60 dB(A); microscale models ≤60 dB(A).
Q: Are the rotors autoclavable?
A: Yes, all aluminum rotors and adapters are autoclavable (121°C, 20 min).
Q: Do you provide OEM and private label services?
A: Yes. We offer custom branding, color, packaging, and software for volume orders.
Q: Can I get a free sample test before purchasing?
A: Yes. Send your samples to our demo lab; we will provide a separation protocol and report. Contact us to arrange.
