Examples of the delivery of centrifuges that allow for separation testing in research and development conditions, and where the movement and installation of the equipment can be made as simple as possible.
We received an inquiry from Company D, a contract manufacturer of active pharmaceutical ingredients and intermediates, asking, "Do you have a centrifuge capable of performing separation tests for research and development conditions? Additionally, is there a model that allows for easy movement and installation of the equipment?" In response, we proposed our laboratory centrifuge model LAC-2000, which they adopted. Considering the possibility of testing with very small sample sizes, we suggested a configuration that allows for the installation of a basket from model LAC-400. This design enables adjustments in capacity based on sample volume and slurry characteristics, thereby reducing test time. As a result of introducing our centrifuge, they reported that the ability to conduct repeated separation tests with small sample sizes significantly shortened the time required for condition setting. Regarding the detachment and disassembly of the basket for cleaning, traditional centrifuges typically require specialized knowledge and tools. However, our LAC-2000 allows for easy detachment with standard tools, which has also reduced the burden on operators. Its compact size makes it suitable for laboratory installation, and it can be used in various locations with a 100V power supply.

Detailed information

【Separation tests can be conducted with a small amount of sample】 ■Repeated tests can be performed under various conditions■ This contributes to shortening the development period for condition setting. While traditional centrifuges required 20 liters (20,000 milliliters) of sample, the LAC400 allows filtration tests with just 400 milliliters of sample. With a reduced amount of filtration sample, the filtration time is also shortened, thereby reducing the time required for testing.
-
■Formation of cake layers is possible■ It is possible to check the filtration resistance and to confirm the cleanability of the cake by introducing a cleaning solution. Since it is a transparent basket, the filtration status can be visually confirmed, allowing for data logging during the centrifugation process.
-
**Lab-Specific Equipment Specifications** ■ Maximum centrifugal effect of 2000 G ■ The upper part of the basket has a glass cover, allowing for visual confirmation during separation. ■ Abundant filtration filter options By replacing the basket ring, it is possible to change the filter and conduct tests. (1) Perforated wall type ring (filter cloth attachment, standard specification) (2) Electron beam screen ring (100 μm and others) (3) Fuji plate screen ring (5 μm and others) (4) Non-perforated wall type ring (centrifugal sedimentation type, skimming device attachment)
