Inspecting metal centrifuge rotors on a regular basis is critical, to ensure the safety of all personnel working in the laboratory environment. Metal rotors are heavy, subject to corrosion and fatigue, and become dangerous as they age because weakened rotors can break apart under normal use. Due to the tremendous g-force metal rotors experience during rotation, any incident could be disastrous.
FIBERLite® is committed to improving laboratory safety and centrifuge reliability through the use of patented Carbon Fiber Technology. We encourage you to use to increase your safety awareness by exploring the options below:
Take advantage of our complimentary rotor inspections for each of your bench-top and floor model centrifuges. We will arrange, at your convenience, to have one of our factory certified technicians evaluate the safety of your existing metallic rotors. Once the unsafe rotors have been identified, the technician can offer carbon fiber replacement rotors that will permanently solve your corrosion and safety issues. With the evaluation of your metallic rotors, we provide documentation for each rotor inspected as well as a general report on the work completed. Furthermore, we will provide the end user, if present, with information on how they can improve the safety and extend the life on their remaining metallic rotors. To schedule a rotor inspection at your site, please call us toll free 1-800-PTI-FUGE (800-784-3843).
