The Beckman Coulter Optima XPN-90 Ultracentrifuge is a high-speed centrifuge for separating particles. This ultracentrifuge spins samples with large centrifugal forces so that the constituent molecules in the samples separate based on their physical properties e.g., size, mass, density, anisotropy. The XPN-90 can be used to purify, as well as characterize, low-molecular weight polymers up to multi-megaDalton protein complexes and organelles.
High Utility: The XPN-90 is designed to automate and simplify the process of particle/component separation of liquids. The system uses specially designed rotors and a smart software suite to separate, purify and characterize the desired components of the material sample.
Capable System: The XPN-90 is a highly capable system designed for precise and high yield medical applications. A large touchscreen gives access to all the controls and important data. It’s easy to read and navigate, even from across the lab. An intuitive graphical interface with context-sensitive help reduces user error. The system’s software is multilingual, supporting nine languages. Its step-by-step zonal and continuous flow screens facilitate a comprehensive workflow. A speed and temperature plot against time allows you to track and record the progress. Powerful on-board simulation and calculation tools help save time and samples. The software optimizes protocols before running to ensure maximum efficiency and quickly performs common calculations and conversions.
Great Features: The XPN-90 comes with a bunch of user-friendly and process-optimizing features that facilitate efficiency. The centrifuge is capable of achieving a speed of 90,000 rpm with a maximum relative centrifugal force of 694,000 g. Even with this high speed and force, the machine is relatively very quiet, operating at a sound level of less than 51dBA. The system is designed to be highly energy efficient with its thermoelectric cooling and a regenerative braking system. The machine’s structured interfaces, smart functionalities and embedded tools help speed up the process while promoting accuracy and consistency.
