Features of the LX Series Centrifuges

Superior Imbalance Protection

Tomy has developed a unique concept in imbalance protection based on the kinetic energy generated by the entire rotational system including the motor, rotor, buckets and adapters.
This system, with its expanded inputs, is capable of detecting a severe imbalance within a few seconds after the centrifuge is started.

Flex-Spin Drive

The Flex-Spin Drive features a flexible motor shaft that equalizes minor imbalances without damaging the centrifuge or triggering the imbalance protection system. This allows excellent tolerance for minor differences in sample volumes.

Easy-Mount Rotors

Tomy offers a wide selection of Easy-Mount Rotors for the LX/LIX Centrifuges. These rotors install and remove with the turn of a knob and the selection covers most of the commonly used centrifuge labware.

Higher Speeds for Microplates

The TS-38LB rotor and B438-96 buckets spin four 96-well microplates at 4,200 rpm generating 3,100G - sufficient for microplate based ethanol extractions of DNA.

High-Speed Fixed Angle Rotor

The TLA-11 Fixed Angle Rotor is a high-speed rotor that takes up to six 35 to 50 ml conical centrifuge tubes, and generates up to 9,600G.The maximum speeds will depend on the tube manufacturers' specifications.

Compact and Convenient

The LX / LIX Centrifuges do not require a reargap for proper ventilation so they can be installed directly against the wall. Access to the chamber is at a comfortable 72 cm from the floor making easy to see and reach into the chamber.

Induction Drive Motor

The LX / LIX centrifuges feature a brushless, induction drive motor that is extremely quiet and maintenance-free.

Precise rpm/G Force Conversions

The BART Code System offers greater precision for G-force calculations because it assigns a unique code based on each Bucket, Adapter, Rotor and Tube combination.
Converted values are displayed at the touch of a button and the centrifuge can be set to spin at either a specific rpm or G-force value.

The operation panel is easy to use and read.

* The indicator lights as shown differ from actual operation.

Two programmable memory stores are provided.

Speeds are programmable in rpm or G values.

Microprocessor Controlled (year 2000 compliant)

Common Jog-Dial simplifies the control panel
