Allegra C‑34R Benchtop Centrifuge

High-Speed Refrigerated Benchtop Centrifuge

The Allegra C-34R refrigerated benchtop centrifuge is designed for research laboratories that need high-speed performance in a compact footprint. With speeds up to 22,500 rpm (34,020 × g), it supports demanding small- and medium-volume workflows while helping labs conserve valuable bench space.

A portfolio of 11 rotor options supports routine sample preparation, nucleic acid and protein workflows, cell isolation, phase separation, microcolumn centrifugation, and multi-well plate processing.

Automatic rotor recognition, imbalance detection, and an electromechanical door lock support safe, reliable operation. An intuitive interface, programmable runs, and run-record export capabilities make the system easy to use in shared laboratory environments.

  • Compact benchtop centrifuge for space-constrained laboratories.
  • Flexible rotor portfolio for microtubes, conical tubes, 6 × 100 mL tubes, and multi-well plates.
  • Temperature-controlled centrifugation from -20 °C to +40 °C to help maintain sample integrity.
  • Built-in safety and usability features support reliable operation in shared laboratory environments.

Allegra C‑34R Benchtop Centrifuge Features

Powerful Performance

  • High-speed capability up to 22,500 rpm (34,020 × g) supports demanding academic research applications.
  • Refrigerated temperature control from -20 °C to +40 °C supports temperature-sensitive samples and protocols.
  • Twelve acceleration and twelve deceleration settings, including no-brake deceleration, help balance speed, sample protection, and workflow needs.

Safe and Reliable

  • Sample leaks, a biosafety risk, are contained in aerosol-tight rotors that are easy to clean and autoclave.
  • Less downtime, fewer failed runs, Rotor auto-ID, cycle tracking, and imbalance detection catch errors before they cost you throughput and deadlines.
  • Electromechanical door locking prevents access to the spinning rotor and operation when the cover is not closed and locked.

Workflow Flexibility

  • Eleven rotor options support microcentrifuge tubes, 5 mL tubes, 15 mL and 50 mL conical tubes, 100 mL bottles, reaction vials, and multi-well plates.
  • Fixed-angle and swinging-bucket rotor configurations support sample preparation, cell isolation, plate-based assays, and phase separation workflows.
  • Compact benchtop design helps labs add high-speed refrigerated capacity without sacrificing bench space.
