Hematocrit Centrifuge (Product Code: SLE/LC/07) is a microprocessor-based centrifuge used to spin blood-filled capillary tubes for haematocrit (packed cell volume) readings in clinical and teaching laboratories. Its micro hematocrit rotor takes 24 capillaries of 75 mm x 1 mm at preset speeds from 2000 to 13000 rpm, and it arrives with capillary tubes, a reading device and sealing wax. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, within its range of analytical lab instruments in India.

Accessories supplied with the centrifuge:
The Hematocrit Centrifuge is used to separate red cells from plasma inside sealed capillary tubes so that the proportion of packed cells can be read. Blood is drawn into a capillary, one end is plugged in the sealing wax tray, and the tubes go into the 24-place rotor with the sealed ends facing outward before the run is started at the preset speed and time.
After the spin, the lengths of the red cell column and the whole sample are compared on the reading device. Physiology and medical laboratory technology courses also use it for student practicals, since the set includes what the exercise needs, which makes it convenient biology lab equipment in India for colleges setting up a haematology bench. Keep the rotor and stainless steel bowl free of blood and glass fragments, and clean them after any capillary breaks.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, supplies the Hematocrit Centrifuge together with its rotor, capillary tubes, reading device and sealing wax. The company quotes it for hospitals, clinics, colleges and dealers in India and international markets. See our company profile for more about the business.

What is included with the Hematocrit Centrifuge?
The Hematocrit Centrifuge comes with a micro hematocrit rotor for 24 capillaries of 75 mm x 1 mm, a pack of 100 heparinised and a pack of 100 non-heparinised capillary tubes, a reading device and one tray of sealing wax.
How many samples can the Hematocrit Centrifuge run together?
The Hematocrit Centrifuge spins up to 24 capillaries per run in its micro hematocrit rotor. With an odd number of samples, place a filled capillary opposite the last one so the rotor stays balanced during the spin.
What speed and timer range does the Hematocrit Centrifuge offer?
The Hematocrit Centrifuge can be preset to any speed from 2000 to 13000 rpm under microprocessor control. Its digital timer covers 0–15 minutes, and the LCD shows set time, run time and RPM during each run.
When are heparinised rather than non-heparinised capillaries used with the Hematocrit Centrifuge?
Heparinised capillaries supplied with the Hematocrit Centrifuge contain heparin to stop blood clotting in the tube, so they suit samples taken directly by skin puncture. Non-heparinised capillaries are used for blood already collected into an anticoagulant tube.
Who supplies the Hematocrit Centrifuge?
The Hematocrit Centrifuge is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India. It is quoted with its rotor and accessories for hospitals, clinics, teaching laboratories and distributors in India and international markets.
Does the Hematocrit Centrifuge motor need servicing?
The Hematocrit Centrifuge uses a well-balanced universal motor with imported carbons. Carbon brushes wear gradually with use and are replaced during servicing, so contact us about spare carbons and service support for your unit.
Can a calibration certificate be supplied with the Hematocrit Centrifuge?
Whether a calibration certificate can be supplied with the Hematocrit Centrifuge is discussed at quotation stage. Please contact us with your requirement and quantity, and mention any extra capillary packs you want included.
