UMH-16R Benchtop High-Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge
The UMH-16R is a benchtop refrigerated centrifuge for laboratory sample separation. The main-unit specification lists a maximum speed of 16,600 rpm, maximum relative centrifugal force (RCF) of 21,532 × g and temperature control from -20°C to +40°C.
A microcomputer control system, LCD display and selectable acceleration and deceleration settings allow operators to set up different centrifugation runs. The rotor range covers sample tubes from 0.5 mL to 100 mL, with individual speed and RCF limits for each rotor.
Product Highlights
Up to 16,600 rpm
The main unit is rated for a maximum speed of 16,600 rpm. The permitted speed depends on the selected rotor.
-20°C to +40°C Temperature Range
The specified control range is -20°C to +40°C, with temperature control accuracy of ±1°C.
Microcomputer Touch Control
The controller supports immediate and continuous operation modes and stores 10 programs for reuse.
LCD Operating Display
Displays speed, RCF, time, rotor information and run settings. Parameters can be adjusted during operation.
9 Acceleration and 10 Deceleration Levels
Selectable profiles allow operators to change how the rotor accelerates and slows down.
Multiple Angle Rotors
The brochure lists rotor configurations from 12 × 1.5/2.2 mL to 6 × 100 mL, plus high-capacity 48-place rotor options.
Speed, RCF and Run Control
The UMH-16R uses an AC variable-frequency motor drive. The LCD provides live speed, relative centrifugal force and run-time information, with real-time conversion between rpm and RCF.
Operators can select from nine acceleration levels and ten deceleration levels. Ten programs can be saved for repeated operating settings. For cycles shorter than one minute, the timer supports a countdown in seconds.
Speed Accuracy
±10 rpm, as specified in the product sheet.
Time Setting
1 second to 99 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds.
Motor Drive
AC variable-frequency drive with condensation protection, according to the brochure.
Rotor Attachment
The spring taper-sleeve mounting system is described as tool-free for rotor installation.
Refrigeration and Safety Features
The temperature setting range is -20°C to +40°C. The product literature also lists a pre-cooling function for preparing the chamber before a run.
The chamber is made of 304 stainless steel, and the exterior is powder-coated for corrosion resistance. Three NR rubber dampers are used for vibration reduction.
- Overspeed and over-temperature protection.
- Imbalance protection.
- Automatic lid locking, with mechanical and electronic door-lock mechanisms.
- Optional vibration monitoring, subject to configuration.
- Specified noise level: ≤55 dB(A).
Available Angle Rotors
The UMH-16R brochure lists the angle rotor choices below. The maximum speed and RCF vary by rotor; the main-unit maximum values must not be applied to every rotor.
