Thermo Scientific Sorvall ST 16 75004240

This machine has now been replaced by the Sorvall ST1 Plus

The Thermo Scientific Sorvall ST 16 and ST 16R are routine centrifuge models each with a 1.6L capacity (4 x 400ml). These centrifuges provide industry-leading capacity and ergonomics at an exceptional value for everyday sample preparation, including clinical protocols, cell culture applications, microplate processing and a variety of separation needs.

• Unparalleled productivity and throughput: Process from 4 to 40 x 50 ml conical tubes or from 32 to 196 blood tubes with our extensive selection of biocontainment rotor solutions, all requiring minimum bench space.

• Exceptional ergonomics: With our patented innovations, achieve safe, simple and comfortable daily operation at a working height of only 31 cm/ 12.4 in.
