Fisher Scientific accuSpin 3 Ventilated Benchtop Centrifuge with #4393 Four-Place Swinging-Bucket Rotor, (4) Buckets & Tube Adapters — Used/Inspected

The Fisher Scientific accuSpin 3 is a high-capacity ventilated benchtop centrifuge built for general-purpose, clinical, and cell-culture workflows that don't require sample cooling. With a full 3-liter capacity (4 × 750 mL) in a low-profile cabinet, it delivers floor-standing throughput while staying on the bench. This unit ships configured with the Fisher #4393 four-place swinging-bucket rotor and four round buckets, plus two styles of tube adapter — making it immediately useful for spinning everything from batches of 50 mL conical tubes to racks of smaller sample tubes in a single run.

The accuSpin 3 is a genuine workhorse: a maintenance-free brushless drive, automatic rotor recognition, electronic load-imbalance detection, an electronic lid lock, four programmable memory positions, and nine acceleration/deceleration profiles for handling delicate gradients and sensitive pellets. The steel housing with armored interior provides robust containment for routine high-volume processing. This is the 120 V / 60 Hz North American configuration.

Condition: Used / Inspected

Acquired from a working laboratory, this unit is functional-grade with honest cosmetic wear that runs heavier than average. Please review all photos, which form part of the condition description:

• Lid does not stay open — the lid gas springs are spent, so the lid will not hold in the raised position and falls closed as soon as it is released. This is a common, low-cost wear item on these benchtop centrifuges and the gas springs are an inexpensive, replaceable part.
• Paint chipping and flaking along the top housing edge/seam, with exposed primer visible.
• The rear nameplate is scratched and partially illegible.
• Scratches on the side panel and scuffs/chipped paint on the front bezel corner.
• General surface discoloration consistent with extended lab use.

The unit powers on and the control panel illuminates.
