Description

Benchmark’s PlateFuge™ is the first “mini” sized centrifuge with a swing out rotor for microplates. Centrifuging plates before PCR ensures all reactants are in the bottom of the wells for proper concentrations and improved yields.

In spite of its remarkably small footprint (9×10 in.), the PlateFuge™ includes a uniquely designed, swing out rotor (patent pending) capable of securing 2 microplates. The easily accessible rotor chamber includes two plate carriers that rest at a 75° angle. This allows plates to be inserted confidently without sealing tapes or caps. Upon closing the lid of the centrifuge, the rotor accelerates and the centrifugal force “swings” the plates into a horizontal position. Any droplets on the walls of the plate quickly concentrate into the well bottoms.

With a g-force of 600 xg, most samples can be spun down in less than 20 seconds. To end a run, simply open the lid and the automatic, electric brake brings the rotor to a quick, smooth stop in just 4 seconds. Plates can then be easily removed from the rotor. Also, Check Out For Nasco B01450WA Whirl-Pak® Stand-Up Bags - 42 oz. (1,242 ml) - Box of 2

Frequently Asked Questions

The PlateFuge C2000 is designed to quickly spin down droplets in PCR plates and microplates, ensuring that all reagents collect at the bottom of wells. This improves reaction consistency and yield in PCR and molecular biology workflows.

Unlike traditional centrifuges, the PlateFuge features a compact “mini” design with a patented swing-out rotor. Plates are loaded at an angle and automatically move to a horizontal position during spinning, which prevents spills and eliminates the need for sealing films or caps.

The C2000 can accommodate 2 PCR plates, 2 microtiter plates (up to ~25 mm height), or up to 24 PCR strip tubes (0.2 mL). It is compatible with skirted, semi-skirted, and non-skirted plates, making it highly versatile for lab use.

This centrifuge operates at approximately 2550 rpm with up to 600 × g force, allowing most samples to be spun down in under 20 seconds. It also features an automatic brake that stops the rotor in about 4 seconds, improving efficiency between runs.

The PlateFuge has a small footprint (~9.2 × 10.2 inches) and weighs about 9 lbs, making it ideal for crowded lab benches. Despite its compact size, it delivers full microplate centrifugation capability, roughly half the size of traditional units.
