Beckman Coulter Allegra X-22R Refrigerated Benchtop Centrifuge with SX4250 Rotor
The Beckman Coulter Allegra X-22R Refrigerated Benchtop Centrifuge is a refrigerated laboratory centrifuge designed for biotechnology laboratories, pharmaceutical research, cell culture applications, blood processing workflows, clinical laboratories, and general life science research. This particular configuration includes the Beckman Coulter SX4250 swinging bucket rotor, providing versatile sample processing capability for conical tubes, blood tubes, bottles, and microplates. The SX4250 rotor is one of the most popular rotor options for the Allegra X-22R platform due to its flexibility, large capacity, and compatibility with a wide range of laboratory applications.
Laboratories evaluating refrigerated benchtop centrifuges often compare refrigeration performance, rotor versatility, throughput capability, sample capacity, and workflow flexibility when selecting a centrifuge system. The Allegra X-22R is engineered specifically for laboratories requiring high-performance refrigerated centrifugation without the footprint of a floor model centrifuge. The included SX4250 rotor makes this system particularly valuable for laboratories processing cell culture samples, blood products, microbiology samples, biotechnology materials, and general research specimens.
At American Instrument Exchange, our technicians inspect and test each centrifuge to verify proper refrigeration performance, motor operation, braking systems, lid lock functionality, rotor operation, and controller performance prior to shipment. American Instrument Exchange offers used and refurbished laboratory centrifuges for sale, including refrigerated centrifuges, floor model centrifuges, benchtop centrifuges, and large-capacity bioprocessing centrifuge systems from leading manufacturers including Beckman Coulter, Thermo Scientific, Eppendorf, and more.

Overview of the Beckman Coulter Allegra X-22R Refrigerated Centrifuge
The Beckman Coulter Allegra X-22R is a refrigerated benchtop centrifuge optimized for biotechnology workflows, cell culture applications, blood processing, microbiology research, pharmaceutical laboratories, and general sample preparation procedures. Unlike smaller microcentrifuges, the X-22R platform is designed to handle larger sample volumes while maintaining the convenience and footprint of a benchtop system.
The included SX4250 swinging bucket rotor supports a wide range of laboratory vessels through interchangeable adapters and bucket configurations. Laboratories frequently utilize this rotor for blood collection tubes, 15 mL and 50 mL conical tubes, cell culture media processing, sample clarification, and routine laboratory workflows requiring moderate to high capacity centrifugation.
The combination of refrigeration performance, rotor flexibility, and substantial processing capacity makes the Allegra X-22R particularly valuable for biotechnology companies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, academic research institutions, clinical laboratories, and core research facilities.

Power Requirements and Shipping Considerations
The Beckman Coulter Allegra X-22R typically requires 120V, 50/60Hz electrical service and is designed for benchtop laboratory installation. Laboratories should verify electrical compatibility, available bench space, and ventilation requirements prior to purchasing this centrifuge.
The system contains refrigeration components, precision electronics, and a high-performance drive system that require careful packaging during transport. Due to its weight and size, the Allegra X-22R typically ships via palletized freight carrier. Laboratories should verify delivery access, bench space, and installation requirements prior to shipment.
American Instrument Exchange can assist customers with freight coordination, shipping preparation, and installation planning.
