ActionsPR1MA™ REACH Long-Neck Pipette Controller
- Extended neck for ergonomics
- Perfect for use under the hood
- Allows user to rest elbow on bench
- QuickStand™ Retractable Kickstand
- 8-hour rechargeable battery life
- Pressure-sensitive speed control
PR1MA™ ProPette REACH™ brings a new level of user comfort to pipetting with serological pipettes. Its extended neck does all the reaching while the user's elbow rests on the benchtop or hood surface eliminating the discomfort and fatigue normally associated with aspirating and dispensing under a hood. This takes pressure off the shoulder, elbow and wrist while minimizing the risk of repetitive strain injuries. PR1MA™ ProPette REACH™ also includes the patented QuickStand™, which defaults to a neutral and out-of-the-way position, but can be folded back to support the pipette at an ideal angle.

PR1MA™ Mini Vortexer
- Powerful vortexing for tubes up to 50 mL
- Pressure activated operation
- "Mini-sized", less than 4 inches wide
Powerful is the best word to describe the PR1MA™ Mini Vortexer. With a 4 mm orbit and fixed speed of 2,800 rpm, it instantly vortexes even the largest samples, including nearly full 50 mL tubes. Despite its powerful motor, the Mini Vortexer has a footprint of less than 4 x 4 inches, allowing it to fit on even the most crowded lab bench.
Pressure-activated operation means that the motor is automatically activated with slight pressure on the center cup head. Operation is smooth, quiet, and efficient. When pressure is removed operation immediately ceases. The unique design prevents liquids from entering the housing, prolonging motor life.

PR1MA™ High-Speed Microcentrifuge
- 12 tube capacity / Up to 16,100 x g
- Less than 9 inches wide
- Quick deceleration
- Whisper quiet operation
All operating parameters are set using a single, conveniently located control knob and the large, bright LCD provides a clear indication of time and rpm or g-force. A separate momentary spin button permits instant spin downs, without setting or disturbing any preset parameters. The aircraft-grade aluminum rotor accepts 1.5 to 2.0 mL tubes directly, as well as 0.5 mL and 0.2 mL tubes with optional adapters. For applications requiring sub-ambient temperatures, the microcentrifuge is cold-room safe.
The PR1MA™ High-Speed Microcentrifuge is the first and only compact microcentrifuge capable of achieving centrifugal speeds up to the critical threshold of 16,000 x g, often held as the standard for many molecular biology/DNA protocols. Its brushless, maintenance-free drive system makes it powerful, yet compact enough to allow each workstation to be fully equipped with a personal centrifuge.
The PR1MA™ High-Speed Microcentrifuge defines a new class of microcentrifuge: compact, quick, powerful, and affordable. All aspects of microcentrifuge performance were taken into consideration and no compromises were made. In addition to its unsurpassed speed, it also delivers shortened acceleration/deceleration times, whisper quiet operation and its computer-designed airflow pattern minimizes sample temperature increases during longer runs at high speeds.

PR1MA™ Roto-Mini Series
- Includes tube holders for common tube sizes, 11 x 1.5/0.2 mL (pack of 2), 5 x 10-15 mL (pack of 2), 5 x 5-7 mL (pack of 2), 6 x 50 mL (pack of 1)
- Plus model available with variable speed control and advanced shaking/ mixing modes: Mix (Oscillating), Pause, Rock
The new PR1MA™ Roto-Mini Series of rotating mixers provide a wide range of mixing capabilities. Suitable for an array of laboratory applications including resuspension, protein binding, nucleic acid purification, etc. the mixers include interchangeable tube holders for accommodating all common tube sizes from 0.5 mL to 50 mL. The motion can be adjusted from vertical (end over end) mixing, to horizontal (rolling or hybridization style) mixing.
The Roto-Mini rotator is also available in a "Plus" configuration, providing the following additional features:
Variable speed: | 5 to 70 rpm |
"Mix" function: | Rotating in combination w/ oscillations (increased mixing) |
"Pause" function: | Rotating with intermittent "stops" during rotation |
"Rock" function: | Back and forth, gentle rocking motion (see-saw) |
The Plus models are also compatible with rocking platform (4.5 x 3 in.), as well as a 96 x 0.2 mL tube/strip/plate holder for mixing PCR vessels in the "Mix" (oscillating) mode.

PR1MA™ V2 Vortex Mixer
- Reversible top platform, cup, or flat-dimpled surface
- Powerful motor for INSTANT vortexing
- Continuous or touch operation
- Q Drive dynamic balancing system
- Variable speed from 200 to 3200 rpm
- Wide variety of accessories, for tubes up to 50 mL
The PR1MA™ V2 Vortex Mixer utilizes a smooth and powerful mixing technology, with the advantage of a uniquely designed reversible rubber head that can be attached to the mixer in two orientations. For the vortexing of single tubes, the cupped surface would generally be preferred. However, for applications requiring a flat/dimpled surface for mixing uniquely shaped vessels (or a handful of multiple test tubes), the head can easily be flipped over and reattached in reverse orientation.
The drive system is balanced with Q-Drive™ technology, providing a smooth vortexing action, while minimizing noise and excessive vibration. This results in quieter, more efficient, and longer lasting operation. With a maximum speed up to 3,200 rpm, the mixer provides an instant vortex of even the largest sample sizes, including full 50 mL tubes.
