Description
Beckman Coulter Avanti J-HC Centrifuge
Beckman Coulter Avanti J-HC Centrifuge is a high-performance floor-standing centrifuge designed for large-volume processing in research, bioprocessing, and clinical laboratories. Engineered for efficiency and reliability, the system provides high throughput capabilities with robust temperature control and advanced safety features.
This configuration includes the JS‑4.2 swinging bucket rotor with buckets, offering exceptional capacity and versatility for processing large sample volumes such as blood bags, cell cultures, and bulk biological samples. The swinging bucket design allows uniform sedimentation and improved separation quality compared to fixed-angle rotors. The Avanti J‑HC system supports high-capacity workflows with up to 9 liters of total volume and delivers efficient batch processing for applications including cell harvesting, protein purification, and sample clarification.
Combined with Beckman’s advanced drive technology and low heat output design, this centrifuge ensures stable, reproducible performance while maintaining sample integrity. It is an ideal solution for laboratories requiring high-throughput centrifugation with flexible rotor compatibility.
Beckman Coulter Avanti J-HC Centrifuge is offered fully tested, in working condition by Alliant Scientific.
