Thermo Scientific™ Sorvall™ RC BIOS Centrifuge Systems

Maximize productivity and protect the integrity of your work with this high-speed, high-volume centrifuge.

Maximize your lab's productivity with the Thermo Scientific™ Sorvall™ RC BIOS 10 and Sorvall RC BIOS 6 centrifuge systems. These systems, complete with Thermo Scientific™ Fiberlite™ rotors, are dedicated to high-speed, high-volume batch bioprocessing applications.

High capacity and fast processing speed reduce cycle times. Choose between:

Sorvall RC BIOS 10 Centrifuge System

• 10-liter capacity with the Thermo Scientific™ Fiberlite™ F5-10x1000 LEX rotor
• Outstanding throughput. Spin up to 10 x 1 liter bottles in a single spin

Sorvall RC BIOS 6 Centrifuge System

• 6-liter capacity with the Thermo Scientific™ Fiberlite™ F8-6x1000y rotor
• High performance. Spin up to 8,500 rpm and 15,860 x g in as little as 9 minutes

Improve productivity with Thermo Scientific™ Fiberlite™ carbon fiber rotors, an advanced alternative to metal rotors, offering unequalled durability with fatigue- and corrosion-resistance for worry-free operation spin after spin.

• Load tubes directly into the rotor, eliminating multi-canister assemblies which can be misplaced or damaged
• Secure investment backed by a 15-year warranty

Promotes sample safety and integrity

• Simplify processing with user-friendly controls
• Reduce variability in operating parameters with Thermo Scientific™ Accumulated Centrifugal Effect (ACE™) function
• Robust refrigeration system protects sample quality
• Thermo Scientific™ Centri-Log™ data collection software provides total process traceability
• New and enhanced security features help minimize risks of errors and system failures
