MICE8 · technical specificationCompact centrifuge for routine clinical, urine, blood and general laboratory sample preparation
4000 rpm2800 ×g8 × 15 mL rotor15 / 20 mL tube workflowsQuiet bench-top use— Practical small centrifuge for daily bench operation
📋 Product Overview
Application profile
Clinical sample preparation: suitable for routine blood and urine sample preparation where a compact low-speed centrifuge is required.
Teaching and training laboratories: small footprint and simple control layout support student and demonstration workflows.
General laboratory use: practical for quick separation, sedimentation and routine bench sample handling.
Backup centrifuge: useful as a secondary centrifuge for busy benches, small clinics and routine sample areas.
Design and handling advantage
Compact bench footprint: 260 × 265 × 310 mm housing fits on crowded laboratory benches.
Direct control: LED display shows speed, RCF and time for straightforward operation.
Brushless motor: maintenance-free drive design with no carbon brush dust.
Quiet operation: noise level below 45 dBA supports use in office-style lab rooms and small clinics.
Key features
Speed / RCF: 4000 rpm and 2800 ×g for typical routine low-speed centrifugation tasks.
Rotor capacity: fixed-angle 8 × 15 mL rotor; adapters available for 2.0 / 1.5 / 0.5 / 0.2 mL tubes.
Timer: adjustable 0–99 minute timer for routine protocols.
Safety: electromagnetic lid lock supports safe start, stop and lid interlock behavior.
Operation: RPM/RCF display and on-the-fly parameter visibility simplify routine use.

📌 Safety and Good Laboratory Practice
Balancing
Opposite positions: always balance by mass, not only by volume.
Tube condition: use undamaged tubes rated for the intended centrifugation conditions.
Lid and rotor
Lid lock: wait for the lid unlock condition before opening.
Rotor loading: insert tubes fully and close caps firmly before operation.
Clinical samples
Biosafety: follow local laboratory rules for blood, urine and biological sample handling.
Cleaning: clean spills immediately according to laboratory procedure.
