Velocity 1ORRefrigerated Benchtop CentrifugeThe Velocity 10R takes the helm as <strong>Dynamica</strong>’s highest capacitycentrifuge –up to 3 litres with the SW3A rotor. Powerfulrefrigeration combined with an exceptional maximum speedof 10,000 RPM (12,740 x g with the FA10D rotor) offer theversatility and convenience to manage a wide range of largerscale applications and all in a footprint sufficiently compact to fi ton a bench.Auto Rotor RecognitionMicrochip technology allows automatic rotor recognition andconfi rmation once centrifugation has commenced, includingrotational speed calculation and optimum temperature control.Furthermore new rotors can be easily loaded onto the on-boarddatabase as they are introduced.Fast Acceleration and DecelerationThe innovative, heavy duty, frequency conversion motor ispurposely designed to handle the heaviest of rotors withabundant power output for smooth, quick and efficientacceleration to terminal velocity under fully laden conditions.Furthermore, 9 pre-set acceleration and 9 pre-set decelerationprofi les ensure the right conditions are met for the most preciousand vibration sensitive samples.Powerful RefrigerationA powerful non -CFC compressor cools the chamber quicklywhilst maintaining the rotor at set temperature duringcentrifugation.Furthermore, twin cooling fans - one each for the compressor andmotor respectively - dissipate heat quickly to improve coolingeffi ciency and extend motor life.Actual Sample (Rotor) Temperature Measurement andDisplayThe temperature displayed on the LCD panel duringcentrifugation is that of the rotor (and hence samples) andneither the temperature of the chamber nor the temperatureat the sensor. This allows for more precise, reproducible andeffi cient experimentation.Safety is ParamountThe Velocity 10R offers many safety features in the unlikelyevent of an emergency such as:Non-contact imbalance detection and shutdown based on therun profi le for each rotor across its entire speed range ratherthan the inferior and conventional micro-switch detector.> Guard barrier> Dual lid electronic interlock> Auto-hinge for improved sealing and door opening> Over speed detection and shutdown> Motor overheat detection and shutdownUser Friendly OperationParameters are quickly and effortlessly inputted through theergonomic touch pad interface and displayed on the brightlybacklit and easy to read LCD panel.The LCD panel concurrently displays all experimentationparameters including diagnostic information as it occurs.Furthermore, once centrifugation has commenced, a real timegraphic profi le of the centrifugation status is displayed.Quiet OperationNoise abating insulation in the console including lower noisefans combine to reduce the audible operating noise to ≤62 dB -quite impressive for a large capacity, refrigerated centrifuge suchas the Velocity 10R.Liquid Seeping PreventionA single continuous rubber cap with strong gasket, fi rmly sealsthe motor chamber opening and drive shaft to prevent liquid fromseeping into the motor and electronic components. As additionalback-up, a highly absorbent sponge positioned beneath therubber cap soaks up any liquid or condensation which thenevaporates during operation.33
