Buyer decision support
The HC-12A and HC-12C are hematocrit (microhaematocrit) centrifuges with the same 24-place capillary rotor, 12,000 rpm and 15,300 × g, plus a reader for packed cell volume. Both have a 0–99 min timer; the HC-12A is the simpler unit, while the HC-12C adds a brushless motor, microcomputer control, LED speed and time display, over-speed and imbalance alarms and a brake.
| Decision factor | Published for this model | Confirm before order |
|---|---|---|
| Rotor and speed | Both: 24 capillary tubes Ø 1.5 × 75 mm; max 12,000 rpm, stepless speed adjustment; max RCF 15,300 × g | Confirm the capillary tube size you stock matches the Ø 1.5 × 75 mm rotor slots. |
| Timer | HC-12A, HC-12C: 0–99 min | Either unit covers a standard PCV spin; ask for the recommended spin time for your capillary tubes. |
| Control and alarms | HC-12A: stepless speed control; HC-12C: microcomputer control, LED speed and time display, over-speed and imbalance alarm, error code display, brake and end-of-run alarm | Choose the HC-12C if several staff share the unit and you want alarms and a displayed speed rather than a knob setting. |
| Safety and reading | Both: mechanical door lock with safety switch, plastic case with metal lid, hematocrit reader included | Ask to see the reader type if you plan to read PCV directly from the rotor or on a separate card. |
| Power, size and weight | 110 V 60 Hz or 220 V 50 Hz; 280 × 310 × 265 mm; HC-12A, HC-12C: 9 kg | State your mains voltage and frequency when ordering; the two supplies are different builds. |
