Description: BLT is a versatile high-speed centrifuge with microprocessor control, maintenance free induction motor drive, and composed of a large range of rotors and adapters. It is used for the separation of particles from a solution through use of a rotor, according to their size, shape, density, viscosity of the medium and rotor speed.
