Description:

The MiniSpin 5452 is a compact, non-refrigerated microcentrifuge designed for “personal” placement at each workstation. Its maintenance-free brushless motor accelerates up to 14 500 rpm (14 100 × g) for rapid pelleting of 12 × 1.5/2.0 mL tubes. A one-touch Short-Spin key (15 s preset) and a 15 s–30 min digital timer (plus continuous-run mode) simplify operation, while automatic lid opening at the end of each run prevents sample warming. Safety features include unbalance detection and a lid-interlock. Measuring just 8.86″ × 9.06″ × 5.12″, it fits easily on any bench—so every user can have an on-demand centrifuge without the noise or space demands of larger units.

Economic Advantage:

Before personal microcentrifuges, labs relied on central units—leading to batching delays, longer turnaround and more floor-space usage. By putting a full-speed (14 100 × g), timer-equipped centrifuge at each station, the MiniSpin 5452 slashes hand-off times and queuing, doubling throughput in many workflows. Its brushless design eliminates routine maintenance (no oil changes), while the small footprint and low capital cost let labs scale centrifugation capacity exactly to need—delivering rapid ROI versus shared or larger benchtop models.
