Thermo Sorvall T1 Benchtop Centrifuge

The Thermo Sorvall T1 Benchtop Centrifuge with the T-20 Microplate Rotor is provides unsurpassed versatility and exceptional performance in a quiet, compact, 1.2 Liter capacity benchtop centrifuge. The Thermo Sorvall T1 delivers consistent separations quickly, with maximum convenience and comfort. This centrifuge features the Auto-Lock rotor exchange system allowing for the user to swap rotors within just seconds. The Thermo Sorvall T1 also features a user-friendly control panel with one-touch access to the most frequently used programs. A brushless induction motor also provides years of service with minimal maintenance. This centrifuge is capable of reaching a maximum speed of 14,600 RPM and a maximum RCF of 23,113 x g. The included T-20 Microplate Rotor reaches a maximum speed of 4,100 RPM and maximum RCF of 2,160 x g.

All of our equipment is fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.

Centrifuge Inspection and Recertification Checklist

• Confirm the power supply output voltages match specified requirements for stable distribution to all internal components
• Measure and verify voltages at PCB test points to ensure accurate power delivery and circuit integrity
• Confirm rotor compatibility with the centrifuge model and check that rotor detection systems recognize the rotor type
• Inspect the exterior for any cosmetic or structural damage that could affect performance or safety
• Check the door mechanism alignment to ensure secure and smooth opening and closing
• Inspect and replace the gas strut with an OEM part to maintain proper door support and safety
• Examine the rotor chamber bowl for dents or damage and replace as needed to ensure safe operation
• Replace and confirm full functionality of all lid lock switches to maintain secure closure
• Inspect and lubricate the door lock mechanism, applying grease to the lid lock rail for smooth operation
• Test compressor functionality (if applicable) to ensure proper operation and consistent temperature control
• Conduct an 8-12 hour cycle test to validate consistent performance over prolonged use
• Confirm rotor motor stability, check for unusual noise, and assess mechanical integrity during operation
• Inspect the condensation drain and clear any clogs to prevent moisture buildup in the rotor chamber
• Verify RPM accuracy using an NIST-traceable tachometer and perform calibration as necessary
• Check the centrifuge error log to ensure zero recorded issues, confirming system reliability
