Description

The Thermo Scientific™ Heraeus™ Megafuge™ 8 (Manufacturer #75007210) is a compact, high-performance benchtop centrifuge engineered to meet the demanding needs of clinical, research, and biotechnological laboratories.

Designed for multi-rotor compatibility, the Megafuge™ 8 supports both fixed angle and swinging bucket configurations, offering maximum versatility. With a speed range up to 17,850 RPM (using the MicroClick 24 x 2 rotor) or 4,500 RPM (with the TX-150 rotor), this centrifuge can handle everything from routine separations to high-speed microtube protocols.

The system accommodates 4 x 145 mL tubes (TX-150 rotor), 6 x 50 mL conical tubes (HIGHConic rotor), and 24 x 5/7 mL blood tubes in swinging bucket mode, providing a wide capacity range.

It features Thermo Scientific’s Auto-Lock™ rotor exchange system for quick, tool-free rotor swaps, and ClickSeal™ biocontainment lids for one-handed, glove-friendly operation. The bright backlit display supports one-touch operation with pre-saved protocols, alphanumeric naming, and program storage for up to 99 user-defined runs.

The Megafuge™ 8 conforms to the latest UL, CE, and IVD safety standards, ensuring precision and reliability for clinical diagnostics, cell culture, and molecular biology workflows.
