System Overview
Principle and Intended Use
For in vitro diagnostic use for rapid separation of whole blood, preparing urine sediment for
microscopic analysis and centrifuging microhematocrit tubes for packed cell volume
determination.
The StatSpin MP is a small, quiet high speed centrifuge. It employs a unique, proprietary drive and
suspension system which results in nearly vibration free operation. Light-weight, low mass rotors
achieve both top speed and full braking in a few seconds. This StatSpin instrument is designed to
meet international safety standards.
