Overview

Product overview

The Sigma 8KBS is a refrigerated floor-standing centrifuge classed as a medical device under Regulation (EU) 2017/745, Class IIa, for separating blood components in transfusion medicine. It was developed for blood banks and transfusion facilities and processes up to twelve blood bag systems per run.

Very smooth running delivers reproducible sedimentation. Maximum RCF is 5,394 x g at 4,100 rpm, and the patented Spincontrol S single-knob control and ergonomic lid opening support intensive daily use. The loading height is 88 cm, the footprint is among the most compact of its class, and the stated noise level is 54 dB(A).

The refrigeration system is precisely adjustable from -20 to +40 °C, and Rapid Temp pre-cools the chamber and accessories, which matters for pre-chilled blood pouches. Options include water cooling, an RS 232 interface for a barcode scanner and the DataSuite documentation system.
