Thermo Scientific™ S2 Series Benchtop Centrifuges

Models included: S2T (Ventilated Benchtop) | S2TR (Refrigerated Benchtop)

The Thermo Scientific S2 Series centrifuges provide exceptional performance, efficiency, and versatility for mid-capacity sample processing in clinical diagnostics and research laboratories. Supporting swing-out capacities up to 4 x 400 mL and speeds up to 25,830 x g, the S2 Series combines an ultra-quiet design with eco-friendly GreenCool technology. Manufactured in a certified zero-waste facility in Germany, it delivers sustainable operations without compromising cooling speed or sample protection.

Technological Innovations & Core Capabilities

• Auto-Lock™ Rotor Exchange: Quick, push-button, tool-free rotor swapping supporting up to 15 application-specific rotors.

• GreenCool™ Natural Refrigerant: Next-generation R290 cooling system with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of just 3, zero ozone depletion, and up to 15% energy savings compared to previous generations (S2TR).

• Ultra-Quiet & Ergonomic: Class-leading low noise operation (below 42 dB(A) for ventilated S2T models and below 52 dB(A) for refrigerated S2TR models) engineered to enhance laboratory working environments.

• ClickSeal™ Biocontainment Lids: Glove-friendly, aerosol-tight sealing system certified for safe handling of clinical or hazardous samples.

• Dual Regulatory Certifications: Available in IVD-MD (EU IVDR Class A / FDA Listed Class 1) for diagnostic applications and General Use configurations.

Intended Applications

• Clinical Diagnostics & Pathology: Medium-throughput processing of primary blood collection tubes and urine containers under strict IVD regulatory standards.

• Cell Culture & Sample Prep: Gentle pelleting and washing of cell suspensions in 15 mL and 50 mL conical tubes.

• Genomics & Proteomics: High-speed centrifugation for microplate purification, spin-column nucleic acid extraction, and protein work.
