Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine (Product Code: SCL-511/05) is a manually driven laboratory centrifuge used to separate two or more substances of different density in school and college labs. Its smooth-running, self-lubricating gearing lets an operator reach speeds of up to 3000 rpm by hand without difficulty, so this piece of chemistry lab equipment in India works with no mains power at all. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

In school chemistry practicals the machine separates a precipitate from its mother liquor during salt analysis, clears a turbid solution before a colour test, and shows how centrifugation splits cream from milk or sediment from muddy water. The gearing multiplies each turn of the handle, so a steady, comfortable pace brings the samples up to speed; ease off gradually and let the head stop on its own before lifting out the tubes.
Load tubes in opposite positions with equal volumes so the head stays balanced, and keep hands and loose sleeves clear while it turns. Because nothing needs plugging in, the machine can be moved between rooms or taken outdoors, which suits a new lab setup in a school where the power supply is intermittent; pair it with tubes, a rack and a Pasteur pipette for drawing off the clear layer.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine. It is made and assembled at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, rather than bought in from a trader, and supplied factory-direct to schools, colleges, dealers and importers in India and international markets.

How fast can the Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine spin?
The Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine can reach speeds of up to 3000 rpm without difficulty, thanks to its gear ratio. The speed on any run depends on how quickly and steadily the handle is turned, so build up the pace gradually and slow down the same way.
Does the Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine need electricity?
No. The Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine is operated manually by hand, so it needs no mains supply and works in any classroom, field station or outdoor demonstration where electricity is unavailable or unreliable.
What maintenance does it need?
Very little. The Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine has smooth-running, self-lubricating gearing and is virtually maintenance-free. Wipe off any spills after use, store it dry, and check that the handle turns smoothly before each practical.
Which tubes does it take, and how many?
Tube size and the number of positions on the Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine are not given in our current listing. Please contact us for the head configuration before ordering, and we will confirm which tubes it accepts.
Who manufactures the Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) manufactures the Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine as the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Buyers deal directly with the manufacturer for quotations, spare parts and repeat orders.
How is it different from the Hand Centrifuge?
Both are manual centrifuges. The Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine is described by its self-lubricating geared drive that reaches up to 3000 rpm, while the Hand Centrifuge is a separate model; compare both listings or ask us which suits your practical.
Can schools order in quantity?
Yes. Share the number of Hand Operated Centrifugal Machine units required and the delivery location in India or abroad, and the manufacturer will prepare a school, tender or dealer quotation for you.
