Manual Centrifuge

Product Code : SLE/CL/69

Manual Centrifuge (Product Code: SLE/CL/69) is a hand-operated centrifuge that spins four 15 ml conical tubes in a swing-out rotor without needing any electrical supply. Turning the handle drives a dismountable aluminium gear structure up to a maximum shaft speed of 3000 min^-1, enough for routine sedimentation work such as urine deposits or separating serum from clotted blood. Health posts, field laboratories, outreach programmes and teaching rooms use it where mains power is unreliable or absent. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Typical Use

Fix the centrifuge to the edge of a sturdy table using the bench clamp, then load the buckets in opposite pairs with tubes filled to the same level so the rotor stays balanced. Crank the handle smoothly, building speed gradually, and hold it steady for the time your method specifies. When you stop turning, let the rotor coast to rest on its own rather than slowing it by hand, so the sediment is not stirred back up. The swing-out buckets lie horizontal during the spin, which gives a compact pellet at the tip of each conical tube.

For anyone comparing a laboratory centrifuge in India for off-grid clinics, school biology practicals or emergency field kits, the attraction of this model is its independence from power and generators. Because the gear structure can be dismounted, the unit also packs down for transport between sites. Wipe the buckets after every session and dry them fully before storage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Manual Centrifuge need electricity?
No. It is entirely hand operated through its aluminium gear structure, so it can be used where there is no mains supply.

How many tubes does it hold, and what size?
Four 15 ml conical tubes, carried in four aluminium buckets on a swing-out rotor.

How fast does it spin?
The maximum shaft speed is 3000 min^-1 (3000 revolutions per minute). The speed actually reached depends on how steadily the handle is turned; our listing does not mention a speed indicator.

How is it fixed to the bench?
With a bench clamp whose adaptable screw covers 0 to 40mm, so it can be secured to a table edge within that thickness.

Can it be dismantled for transport or cleaning?
Yes, the gear structure is dismountable. Clean the buckets and base with a mild detergent solution and dry them thoroughly before reassembly.

Are spare buckets or a warranty available?
These are not stated in our listing. Please contact us to ask about spare parts and warranty terms.

Can you supply several units for a field programme?
Yes. Tell us the quantity and delivery point and we will quote for supply within India or to international markets.
