J6 Rotors | Rotor Accessories

J6 Rotors for Maximum Applications Versatility
Beckman Coulter rotors are designed to help you get the most from your J6 Series
Instrument.
Workhorse swinging-bucket rotors were designed with versatility in mind.
With the appropriate adapter(s), these rotors can spin everything from
tissue culture in 1-liter bottles to blood bags. The JS-4.2SM, JS-4.2SMA,
JS-4.2A, JS-4.2 and JS-5.2 are windshielded swinging-bucket rotors
that can spin blood bags.
Special carriers for microtiter plates slip
right into the rotor yokes that hold swinging buckets, quickly converting the rotor to a
special-purpose separation tool.

Carriers to spin microtiter plates used in serum studies are interchangeable
with the buckets of the horizontal rotors. Each carrier holds up to three
plates for a total of 18 plates per run in the six-place rotor and 12 plates
per run in the four-place rotors.

Beckman Coulter Rotor Accessories
Beckman Coulter adapters,
Aeroseal™ covers and
other accessories bring added utility and safety to the J6 rotor line.
Eleven color-coded Multi-Disc™ adapters fit inside the J6's
swinging buckets, accommodating tube and bottle diameters ranging from 10 mm to 98 mm. The
adapters are autoclavable and can serve as handy storage racks. Special rubber bases are
shaped to support individual tubes/bottles, and can be obtained for both conical and
round-bottom shapes.
Special Aeroseal covers work with swinging buckets, using an O-ring seal
designed to protect against biohazardous aerosol emission. Rotor rack trays provide a
convenient method for spinning gamma counter trays. Blood bag cups support blood bags of
all sizes and shapes.
