Large touch-screen display
Displays more data. Easy to read and navigate. Viewable from across the lab.
Energy efficient
Regenerative braking returns energy to local circuit reducing utility costs. Highly efficient thermoelectric cooling results in lower power consumption. Uses the same amount of power as a 60-watt light bulb while idling.
Total system design
The Optima XE, its rotors and its labware are designed, manufactured, and tested as an integrated system to ensure optimal performance and safety for your lab.
Zonal and continuous flow operation screens
Intuitive, graphical step-by-step interface simplifies workflow
Multilingual software
Includes nine languages for error-free operation
Improved power tolerance
Maintains runs during power fluctuations. Handles a wider tolerated range of 180 VAC to 264 VAC. Tracks power interruption data to convey if parameters remained within an acceptable range.
Quiet-drive technology
Designed for lowest drive noise – this is the quietest floor model on the market. Operates at less than 51 dBA.
Context-sensitive on-screen help
Find answers easily. Reduce training time and user error.
