Overview
The AELAB TG18 Micro High-Speed Centrifuge is a compact and efficient benchtop unit designed for biotechnology, PCR, life science, and clinical laboratories. With its advanced converter motor and intuitive LCD touch display, the TG18 enables precise control of centrifugation parameters and consistent performance across various sample types.
Constructed for routine and advanced sample analysis in hospitals, institutional, and research environments, this model supports a wide range of rotor heads and adapters, making it versatile for microtube and capillary centrifugation.
⚙️ Design & Construction
The AELAB TG18 features a stainless steel chamber with a compact, corrosion-resistant frame. The unit incorporates an LCD touch interface for precise control and monitoring of speed, RCF, and time. A safety interlock system prevents the lid from opening during operation, while the imbalance sensor ensures stability at high speeds. The emergency lid release provides safe sample recovery in power-off conditions.
🔬 Working Principle / Testing Method
The centrifuge operates by accelerating samples up to 18,500 rpm to achieve a relative centrifugal force of 19,920×g. The converter motor drives a range of compatible rotors, supporting microtubes from 0.2 ml to 5 ml. Speed and timer settings are adjustable through the digital LCD control panel for accurate and repeatable separation of biological, clinical, or molecular samples.
💡 Key Advantages
- Maximum speed of 18,500 rpm with precise ±50 rpm control
- Supports up to 8 rotor configurations for microtubes and PCR tubes
- Quiet operation below 60 dB(A) for laboratory comfort
- Integrated imbalance, overspeed, and overtemperature protection
- Stores up to 10 user programs with quick recall memory
- LCD touch display enables real-time speed and RCF monitoring
- Compact 10 kg footprint for benchtop laboratory use
🔗 Connectivity & Integration
The AELAB TG18 is equipped with intuitive digital controls and can interface with AELAB GLP-compliant data management software for speed/time logging and performance tracking. USB and optional printer connections are available for result documentation and traceability.
