Falcon 6/300R |
 | MSE were one of the first manufacturers to introduce high capacity bench top centrifuges with induction drive. This tradition for innovation has continued with the introduction of the new Falcon range of large capacity bench top centrifuges. Both refrigerated and non–refrigerated models take a full 3 litre load – the refrigerated versionhaving a much increased ‘g’ force capability. These centrifuges represent excellent valuefor money in terms of their performance, ease of use, safety and reliability.

| - Automatic Rotor Identification System
- Both Falcon centrifuges incorporate the well known MSE automatic rotor identification system. This important feature ensures that the centrifuge recognises the rotor in use and prevents it from being used beyond its maximum speed. Once the centrifuge has identified the rotor it can also work out the ‘g’ force at any set speed. This means that the centrifuge can convert rpm to ‘g’ and vice versa once a run has commenced.
- Microprocessor Controlled Induction Drive
- Brushless induction drive motors have become a familiar feature in bench top centrifuges since they were first introduced by MSE in the early 1980’s. Naturally both Falcons follow this tradition. Combined with microprocessor control, each version exhibits extremely accurate run to run reproducibility – an important feature for users where accountability for analysis and production is becoming an increased necessity.
- Fully Programmable
- Operation of both units is fully programmable with a memory capability of up to 49 different programs. This includes all parameters such as speed (or ‘g’ force), time, acceleration rate, brake rate and temperature control.
- Safety Features
- MSE have always prided themselves on customer safety and the Falcons prove to be no exception. Both centrifuges have a 7mm steel guard ring so that in the unlikely event that there should be a disruption, no debris can escape from the centrifuge. An imbalance sensor aborts a run if a significant imbalance is detected and a lid interlock prevents the lid from being opened when the rotor is in motion.
- Wide Range of Accessories Available
- Most centrifuge work can be accomplished using the 4 x 750ml windshielded rotors, as these are available with a wide range of adaptors that fit into the 750ml buckets. Microtitre carriers and special buckets for 250ml tissue culture bottles are available on the 4 x 750ml non–windshielded rotor only. The 8 x 200ml swing–out rotor and various angle rotors complete the full list of accessories making this one of the most versatile centrifuges on the market. Please see rotor tables for details.
