JLA-10.500 Fixed-Angle Rotor, made of aluminum, comes with six biosafety liquid canisters equipped with secondary liquid closures. This rotor is designed for large-scale initial processing of bacteria or other cells from fermenters, clearing cellular debris from homogenates, or collecting subcellular organelles and protein precipitates Designed to be used with the Avanti J Series and J2 Series centrifuges, it enhances the efficiency and productivity of your laboratory processes.

The J-Lite JLA-10.500 Fixed Angle Rotor is a versatile and high-capacity rotor designed for use with Beckman Coulter Avanti® J and J2 series centrifuges. It is ideal for efficiently pelleting cells from large volumes, separating cell particles from tissue homogenates, and purifying low-sedimentation particles such as viruses.

Key Specifications:

• Maximum Speed: 10,000 RPM

• Maximum Relative Centrifugal Force (RCF): 18,600 × g (at maximum radius)

• Rotor Angle: 20 degrees

• Nominal Rotor Capacity: 3 liters (6 × 500 mL bottles)

• Material: Anodized aluminum rotor body with carbon fiber epoxy composite cannisters

• Critical Speed Range: 600 to 800 RPM

• Weight (Fully Loaded): 16.2 kg (35.7 lbs)

Design and Features:

• High Capacity: Can process up to 3 liters per run using six 500 mL bottles.

• Efficient Performance: The rotor’s design provides effective sedimentation, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including large-scale cell harvesting.

• Reduced Weight: Approximately 30% lighter than comparable all-aluminum rotors, due to its carbon fiber composite cannisters.

• Safety: Features interchangeable cannisters with closures for secondary containment of samples, ensuring safe operation even with hazardous materials.

Maintenance and Care:

• Regular Inspection: Check the rotor body, cannisters, and O-rings regularly for damage or wear. Ensure the cannisters are free of deep cracks and that the sealing surfaces are smooth.

• Lubrication: Use Spinkote lubricant on metal threads and silicone vacuum grease on O-rings to maintain sealing integrity.

• Cleaning: Wash with mild detergent, rinse thoroughly with distilled water, and air-dry upside down.
