Easy to Use
Use the simple, two-button interface to select a preset, or program and record your validated settings on the included label. Spin 12 tubes up to 16 x 100 mm or 10 mL in the same holder.
Easy to Monitor
Process samples more efficiently. HORIZON’s LED lid lighting is off when the centrifuge is ready to load, on when running, and flashing at the end of each cycle.
Engineered for Safety
Protect your lab with imbalance detection and a shatterproof lid which can only be opened when the centrifuge’s rotor is stopped, even if the unit loses power.
Unique Features
The HORIZON 12 routine centrifuge simplifies processing of up to 16 x 100 mm or 10 mL blood and urine tubes to deliver the best outcome for your patients. Choose from one of three (3) preset cycles, or set and lock to one cycle to prevent accidental changes. The LED lid lighting prevents forgotten tubes and indicates the status of your samples: off when ready, on when running, and flashing when done.

What is the warranty on Drucker’s centrifuges?
Drucker Diagnostics provides a two (2) year parts and labor warranty.
Will I need to purchase accessories for the centrifuge separately?
All of our centrifuges are sold complete with the rotor and tube holders. No additional accessories are necessary though there are additional options available for purchase.
How often should my centrifuge be calibrated?
Drucker Diagnostics recommends the centrifuge be calibrated every 2 years or 5,000 cycles.
What should be used to clean and disinfect the HORIZON 12?
ONLY isopropyl alcohol, soap and water, or a 10% (5,500 PPM) bleach solution should be used for cleaning and disinfection of the centrifuge and accessories. All surfaces must be dried immediately after cleaning and disinfecting.
What cleaning solutions should be avoided?
TBQ Germicidal products should not be used as they will cause damage to the centrifuge and void the warranty. The use of fully/partially halogenated hydrocarbons, ketones, esters, ethers, benzyls, ethyl benzenes, and all other chemicals not prescribed by Drucker Diagnostics should not be used as they may cause damage to the rotor chamber, rotor, tube holders, accessories, and centrifuge exterior. If this occurs the warranty will be voided.
