General Info: LW Scientific E8 Portafuge Variable Speed Centrifuge Model # E8C-U8AV-150PThe USA E8 Portafuge is designed, engineered, and assembled at LW Scientific's ISO-certified, FDA-registered manufacturing facility in Lawrenceville, GA. Expect American quality as well as customary LW Scientific support. This model is loaded with features and improvements, such as higher speeds for faster and cleaner separations, quieter operation, lower chamber temperatures for cooler test-tube samples, and auto-calibrating function for precision speeds. It even has an auto-brake to stop the rotor in less than 30 seconds to save time. Simply place the centrifuge into the included car seat, strap the car seat into your vehicle, and insert the power cord into your car's 12v power outlet.Includes eight-place tube rotor, eight 15ml tube sleeves, eight 13x75mm tube sleeve inserts, car seat and car adapter.Features45° Angled rotor, 8-tube capacityHolds 3ml to 15ml size tubes12 volt DC maintenance-free motorClear view port in lid for using tachometerSuction-cupped feet prevent slippingLid safety shut-off switchMaximum RCF=1,534g3,500rpm digital speed and time (blood, urines, etc.)Auto-off 30-minute timer with bellDimensions: 9.5" x 11" x 11"Weight: 9.5 lb.AdvantagesAccurate speeds for specific g-forcesProper separations without cell damageQuiet, vibration-free operationAuto-brake stops the rotor in less than 30 secondsDesigned, Engineered, and AssembledProudly in AmericaNote: Do not operate centrifuge while driving.Benefits of Mobile CentrifugationHome-health nurses and medics often draw blood from patients to run lab tests.Common serum tests are:CMP - Comprehensive Metabolic Profile, runs 14 different tests.BMP - Basic Metabolic Profile, runs 8 different tests.Are you spinning down your tubes within one hour?It is highly recommended that CMP and BMP tubes be spun within one hour otherwise glucose test results may be falsely low, and potassium test results may be falsely high. To solve this issue home-health nurses often travel out to a home, back to the lab, out to the next home, back to the lab, etc. If centrifugation is not possible within 1 hour, the nurse may need to draw an additional Sodium Fluoride preservative tube to attain accurate Glucose test results, adding more time and expense.Skewed results from un-spun blood tubes can necessitate a re-draw from thepatient, causing additional physical pain, time, expense, and frustration.Without a Portable Centrifuge ExpectHigher costs for additional reagentsHigher costs for more test tubes and suppliesHigher costs for additional lab testingHigher travel expensesFewer home patient visits per dayLess accurate lab test resultsWith The Portafuge ExpectTwice the customers per dayReduced milesLower costs for tubes and reagentsMore accurate lab test resultsMore satisfied patientsGreater profit
