Sigma 3-18KS

Refrigerated benchtop centrifuge
Sigma 3-18KS

Top class for demanding users

The Sigma 3‑18KS is the perfect choice for everyone who sets very high requirements for refrigerated benchtop centrifuges and is looking for a broad range of operating options. The centrifuge enables RCF values of more than 30,000 x g and is very convenient in use thanks to the patented Spincontrol S one-knob control and automatic lid lock. Combined with the extensive range of rotors and accessories, this all-purpose centrifuge sets standards for versatility and performance.

What makes the Sigma 3‑18KS all-purpose centrifuge so attractive
The Sigma 3‑18KS makes work processes in laboratory operation more efficient, safer and more convenient. The benchtop centrifuge has an extraordinary capacity with a maximum of 4 x 400 ml. The Sigma 3‑18KS is nicely complemented by a large selection of fixed-angle and swing-out rotors, buckets and adapters, including many biosafe configurations. Particularly thanks to the ability to use fixed-angle rotors with high RCF, the centrifuge covers a distinctly broader spectrum of applications compared to competitive units.

Sigma centrifuge tables are available in six different sizes. Matched to the corresponding centrifuge dimensions, they combine convenient work height with an optimally calculated footprint. The tables are made from coated sheet steel and are equipped with a storage compartment (with two doors) and a convenient pull-out shelf. Lockable castors allow the centrifuge tables to be easily moved and positioned in the laboratory.
