Sigma 6-16KS, refrigerated benchtop centrifuge 220-240 V, 50 Hz
Reference : SIG-10395Performance matching a floor-standing centrifuge
The compactness of a benchtop centrifuge with the performance of a floor-standing centrifuge. The refrigerated Sigma 6‑16KS is suitable for a wide variety of routine and research applications. Along with high throughput with fixed-angle and swing-out rotors, it easily achieves RCF values up to 25,419 x g. Its key features are high versatility, an advanced user interface and outstanding reliability.
What makes the 6‑16KS refrigerated benchtop centrifuge so attractive?
Particularly thanks to the ability to use large-capacity fixed-angle rotors with high RCF, the centrifuge covers a distinctly broader spectrum of applications compared to competitive units.
The Sigma 6‑16KS delivers precise separation results in all cases, whether blood pouches, petroleum flasks, microtiter and deepwell plates, or tubes and flasks from 0.2 ml to 1,000 ml.
It is widely used in microbiology and molecular biology, pharmaceutics, genomics, clinical diagnostics, bioproduction, cell culture labs and transfusion facilities. A total of twelve fixed-angle and six swing-out rotors are available, along with numerous buckets and adapters – including many biosafe configurations.
The Sigma 6‑16KS features a clearly organised display. The patented Spincontrol S one-knob controller provides superior operating convenience and process reliability. Optimisation of separation runs and yields is supported by 60 programs with the option of making user-specific settings, as well as 30 profiles for use as acceleration or braking curves. Custom person-specific settings can be saved with password-protected access control. An extremely practical feature is the large program status display, visible from a distance, with a progress bar.
The Sigma 6‑16KS is also available as the Sigma 6‑16S unrefrigerated centrifuge, the Sigma 6‑16HS heated centrifuge and the Sigma 6‑16KHS refrigerated and heated centrifuge. An inert gas port is optionally available for this device.

This cytocentrifuge configuration, SIGMA 2-7 Cyto RESOSPIN® configuration, includes:
- rotor no. 11260,
- 12 clips no. 13260,
- 50 single-use funnel no. 15260
- 50 coated slides no. 15261
The Sigma 2‑7 Cyto combines the highlights of the Sigma 2‑7 laboratory centrifuge with state-of-the-art cytology centrifugation. This compact centrifuge excels in cytology labs with its perfectly matched accessories for the gentle and quiet depositing of cells on specimen slides and the possibility of repurposing the centrifuge for cell harvesting or processing of blood collection tubes. Along with saving space in the lab, this is a boon in economic terms.
It is ideal for gentle centrifugation in cytology labs to transfer cells to specimen slides for morphological assessment under the microscope. Cytodiagnostics, in which cells from bodily fluids or organs are subjected to microscopic examination to detect malignant cell changes, for example as part of cancer treatment, is a crucial application area for the Sigma 2‑7 Cyto.
This cytocentrifuge configuration, SIGMA 2-7 Cyto Shandon™ configuration, is compatible with Shandon™ clips and includes:
- rotor no. 11261,
- 12 clips no. 13261,
- 50 single-use funnel no. 15260,

12 litre capacity for production or high-capacity research
The Sigma 8KS is a refrigerated floor-standing
compact stand-alone refrigerated
centrifuge that is ideal for all-purpose use in the industrial or for all tasks in blood banks, medicine and research sectors. This high-performance centrifuge features impressive capacity of up to 12 x 1,000 ml in a swing-out rotor or 6 x 1,000 ml in a fixed-angle rotor. With a maximum RCF of 20,461 x g, even demanding separation processes can be handled efficiently. Particularly thanks to the ability to use large-volume fixed-angle rotors with high RCF, the Sigma 8KS cover a distinctly broader spectrum of applications compared to competitive units.
The motorized lid lock and its patented one-button control (Spincontrol S) makes the Sigma 8KS especially easy to use. The centrifuge has a low loading height, is pleasantly quiet in operation, and has low power consumption.
