High-capacity centrifuge for vaccine purification
Optimize vaccine production with high-speed centrifuging that ensures precise and efficient purification of viral vectors and proteins, critical for maintaining high-quality standards.

The Sorvall CC40NX and CC40SNX centrifuges from Thermo Scientific are engineered for biopharmaceutical manufacturers and vaccine producers requiring precise purification and separation of biomaterials. These centrifuges feature an induction drive for continuous or batch processing, operating up to 40,000 rpm with an FCR of 118,000 x g to handle demanding applications such as recombinant insulin and viral vector production.
Ideal for both high-volume and small-scale operations, the CC40NX manages up to 8.0L in batch mode and 3.2L in continuous flow. Automation includes a micro-processor controlled digital display, ensuring simplified monitoring and control, while an oil rotary vacuum pump maintains optimal conditions during operation.
The robust design includes corrosion-resistant stainless steel, adhering to US FDA cGMP and CE standards, ensuring compliance with pharmaceutical regulations. Maintenance is streamlined with automated diagnostics and a backup system for motor lubrication continuity. Configurations can be customized with various rotors and accessories to meet specific operational needs, making integration within existing production lines seamless and efficient.
