DAMON IEC HN-SII Centrifuge

The DAMON/IEC HN-SII Centrifuge is a workhorse benchtop laboratory centrifuge designed for general clinical sample preparation, research workflows, and petroleum testing applications. Manufactured by the Damon/IEC Division, this versatile instrument is widely recognized for handling ASTM oil testing methods and standard sediment separation protocols. In addition, its heavy-duty motor drive delivers dependable rotational force across a wide range of analytical tube volumes.

DAMON/IEC HN-SII Features & Speed Control

• Analog Speed Control: Utilizes a rugged analog dial control to dial in rpm settings smoothly. Consequently, operators can fine-tune acceleration and rotational velocity to match specific sample densities and protocol requirements.
• Oil Separation & Sediment Testing: Specifically engineered to accommodate standard pear-shaped and 100 mm conical centrifuge tubes. Therefore, it excels at petroleum water/sediment determinations according to ASTM standards.
• Durable Heavy-Duty Construction: Built with an all-metal chassis and an armored steel guard bowl. As a result, the unit ensures maximum operator safety and long-term durability in high-throughput industrial and laboratory environments.
• Dynamic Braking: Features an integrated electric brake switch. Thus, it substantially reduces coast-down time between test runs without disturbing delicate pellet formations.

Technical Specifications & Integration

• Speed Capability: Delivers variable speeds up to 4,000+ rpm (depending on the installed rotor and bucket assembly).
• Timer Operation: Includes an integrated analog interval timer with a continuous “Hold” function for extended centrifugation runs.
• Chamber Compatibility: Accepts a wide variety of IEC swinging-bucket and fixed-angle rotors for standard clinical tubes, blood tubes, and specialty glassware.
• Benchtop Footprint: Offers a stable, low-profile bench footprint equipped with vibration-dampening feet to reduce counter drift during operation.

Condition & Included Components

• Cosmetic Condition: Shows typical cosmetic signs of prior laboratory or industrial deployment, such as minor paint scuffs or light exterior wear. However, the chamber, mechanical latch, and front controls remain intact and functional.
• Operational State: Powers on cleanly, motor accelerates smoothly across speed dial adjustments, and the mechanical lid lock operates as intended.
• Included Items: Main Damon/IEC HN-SII centrifuge unit with installed power cord. Please verify the specific rotor, shields, cushions, and glassware buckets included prior to final purchase.

Overall, the Damon/IEC HN-SII centrifuge offers a reliable, straightforward solution for laboratories and testing facilities requiring dependable separation and ASTM oil testing capabilities.
