DG1616 High Speed Centrifuge: What Buyers Can Verify

DG1616 High Speed Centrifuge

The DG1616 is a floor-standing benchtop centrifuge. Its listed maximum speed is 16,000 rpm across a 300–16,000 rpm range in 1 rpm increments, with maximum relative centrifugal force of 28,621 xg. Speed accuracy is stated at ±20 rpm.

Run time spans 30 seconds to 99h59min59s, plus continuous operation. Nine acceleration and nine deceleration steps are listed. The unit uses a brushless DC motor and draws 650W on 100–240V, 50/60Hz.

Stated features include motor-lock adsorption for one-handed chamber-door closing, dynamic balance detection with imbalance alerts, program storage, and rapid cooling from room temperature to 4°C. A high-strength aluminum alloy rotor is described as autoclavable at 121°C.

The applications list spans biopharmaceutical, IVD, CRO/CDMO, hospital central laboratories, third-party testing, CDC, food safety, environmental monitoring, petrochemical, and agricultural research. Stated uses include DNA/RNA extraction, protein purification, cell and microbial pelleting, and serum/plasma separation.

Rotor capacity, rotor type, noise level, and temperature setting range appear as blank fields in the specification table, as do the Cat.No. and safety performance entries. Compatibility is described only as covering 2–400 mL vessels, PCR strips, and 96- and 384-well plates; the specific rotors and adapters are not listed.

Certification is stated as CE, UKCA, FCC, and ICES compliance, plus CB and cTUVus. Documentation confirming these marks, and rotor-specific RCF ratings, would need to be requested before purchase.

At 440x640x375mm and 70 kg, bench space and floor loading are practical constraints. The gap between claimed throughput and unnamed rotors is where procurement diligence belongs.

Why it matters:
Buyers should confirm the exact rotor set, per-rotor RCF limits, and certification documents before committing, since several specification fields remain unfilled.
