Thermo Fisher Scientific launches general purpose centrifuges with next-generation natural refrigerant cooling system
Thermo Fisher Scientific's X and S Series centrifuges combine eco-friendly hydrocarbon cooling with high-performance features, supporting sustainable lab operations while meeting EU and EPA regulations.
Thermo Fisher Scientific introduced the Thermo Scientific X and S Series Centrifuges, general purpose centrifuges that feature natural refrigerant cooling systems compliant with European Union(E.U.)and U.S.Environmental Protection Agency(EPA)F-gasregulations.
These 4-liter centrifuges feature Thermo Scientific GreenCool Technology, utilizing hydrocarbon cooling (R290) with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 3, an immense reduction compared to previous cooling systems with a GWP of 1,430. They are more energy-efficient than earlier models, are designed for longevity and are manufactured at Thermo Fisher’s site in Osterode am Harz, Germany.
The X and S Series centrifuges offer exceptional rotor performance and can be equipped with Thermo Scientific Fiberlite Carbon Fiber Rotor choices, which weigh up to 60% less than aluminum rotors, enabling faster acceleration and deceleration times and reducing energy consumption per run. They also include advanced safety features, ergonomic design and versatile configurations to support the needs of labs across medical research, biopharma and diagnostics industries.
