Description:

The StatSpin Express 3 is a benchtop primary-tube centrifuge engineered for rapid, on-demand blood separation next to any STAT analyzer. Its maintenance-free brushless motor spins an eight-place, 30°-angle rotor in fixed 2-, 3- or 5-minute cycles, delivering high-quality plasma or serum in as little as two minutes—equivalent to 7–10 min on conventional units. A simple three-button interface (2/3/5 min), audible end-of-run beep and universal 100–240 VAC power input make it effortless to install and operate; adapters for both 5 mL and 10 mL tubes come standard. With < 25 s acceleration to 7,200 rpm (4,440 × g), < 30 s coast-down, and a 9.5 lb footprint (7.1″ × 10.5″ × 10.0″), the Express 3 boosts throughput and frees labs from batching cycles.

Economic Advantage:

Prior to the Express 3, labs often delayed analyses while batching tubes for swing-bucket rotors or larger centrifuges. By offering true STAT performance—plasma ready in 2 min at a third of the spin time of standard units—the Express 3 slashes turnaround, reduces sample hand-offs, and maximizes analyzer uptime. Its brushless motor and fixed-time presets eliminate maintenance and user errors, translating into higher sample throughput, lower labor costs, and a rapid return on investment in any point-of-care or satellite-laboratory setting.
