Benchmark D1000 Handheld Homogenizer

The D1000 Handheld Homogenizer is a powerful and efficient device designed for rapid homogenization, emulsification, and suspension of biological samples. Ideal for use with microtubes and larger samples, the D1000 can process volumes from 0.1 ml to 250 ml, depending on the generator probe used. This versatile homogenizer is suitable for a wide range of laboratory applications, including DNA/RNA extraction, cell lysis, and protein extraction.

Key Features:

• Efficient Homogenization: The D1000 works by drawing the sample into the generator probe with the variable speed rotor and forcing it through the slots in the stator, achieving mechanical shearing. This process is repeated multiple times to thoroughly homogenize the sample in under 30 seconds.
• Wide Volume Range: The D1000 is capable of processing volumes from 0.1 ml to 250 ml, making it ideal for small and large sample preparation. The generator probes available in 5mm and 7mm diameters ensure versatility for different sample sizes.
• Powerful Motor: The D1000 is equipped with a 130W motor that drives the rotor at speeds ranging from 8,500 to 30,000 rpm. This powerful motor ensures thorough and consistent sample processing.
• Ergonomic Design: The homogenizer features a slim, ergonomic handle that makes it comfortable to use, even for extended periods. The lightweight design (0.6 kg) reduces hand fatigue.
• Adjustable Speed: Speed is adjustable in six steps, allowing you to tailor the homogenization process to the specific needs of your sample. The separate on/off switch enables easy operation, ensuring that the device can be left on at the appropriate setting for continuous use.
• Easy Sterilization: All generator probes are made of stainless steel and are autoclave-safe for easy cleaning and sterilization after use.
