Centrifuge calibration, RPM verification & repair in Miami and Florida
On-site RPM and timer verification and centrifuge repair for clinical, molecular and research laboratories across Florida and Puerto Rico. Every repaired centrifuge is RPM-verified before it goes back into use.

South Florida (Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach) is usually same-day or next-day. In Tampa Bay, Orlando and Southwest Florida, a technician can often be on site the next day and within 72 hours at most. Puerto Rico is served on planned service trips, so call 305.238.5326 to get on the next visit. Legacy Sorvall RC-3 centrifuges with obsolete controls can be modernized instead of replaced; see engineering & modernization.
Centrifuge calibration pricing
Calibration
Starting from $95.00 per centrifuge. RPM and timer verification against a calibrated tachometer and timer, with as-found and as-left results, certificate and dated decal.
Multiple units
Several centrifuges, or pipettes and thermometers on the same visit, share one trip and one schedule.
Parts
Repairs and parts are quoted separately.
Manufacturers we calibrate and service
RPM verification against a calibrated tachometer, timer accuracy, temperature verification on refrigerated units, and NFPA 99 electrical safety — documented on one NIST-traceable certificate per instrument.
Beckman Coulter
Allegra X-series, Avanti J-series, Microfuge and Optima benchtop and floor models.
Eppendorf
5810 and 5810R, 5920R, 5430 and 5430R, 5424 and 5424R, 5702 series.
Sorvall
RC-3C and RC-3C Plus, RC 6 Plus, Legend X1 and XTR, ST 8 / ST 16 / ST 40 series.
Thermo Fisher
Heraeus Megafuge and Multifuge, Pico 17/21, Fresco 17/21, Sorvall ST and Legend platforms.
Clinical benchtop
Hettich, Drucker Horizon, Unico, LW Scientific, Clay Adams Triac and comparable units.
Cytospins & specialty
Cytocentrifuges, hematocrit and serology centrifuges, and rotor-specific verification.
What every centrifuge calibration includes
RPM verification
Multi-point speed verification against a calibrated tachometer, with as-found and as-left values.
Timer accuracy
Run-time verification against a traceable reference — a common surveyor finding.
Temperature (refrigerated units)
Chamber temperature verification on refrigerated models.
Electrical safety
NFPA 99 leakage and ground verification on the same visit.
Mechanical inspection
Rotor, lid latch, gasket and brake condition — safety before certification.
Certificate & label
NIST-traceable certificate, dated calibration label, and next-due tracking.
Obsolete Sorvall controls?
When factory control electronics are discontinued — as they are on the RC-3C Plus — we retrofit rather than replace. See the SmartControl™ modernization system.
Accurate g-force, documented to tolerance
BMCA verifies actual rotor speed against the set value across the operating range using a NIST-traceable tachometer, checks the timer, and records as-found / as-left readings — the documentation CLIA assessors expect to see.
Why it matters
An out-of-tolerance centrifuge quietly undermines result quality and is an easy inspection finding. Verification closes the gap and gives you proof on file.
Each verification includes
- RPM verification across the rated range
- Timer accuracy check
- As-found / as-left readings recorded
- Pass/fail against your defined tolerance
- NIST-traceable certificate
- Dated calibration label on the unit

Plan your centrifuge calibration visit
Send your facility location, equipment count, manufacturer, model and serial numbers. Let us know which rotors and operating speeds your laboratory uses so we can confirm the verification scope before scheduling.
We check rotor security, motor mounts and lid operation as part of the mechanical inspection. Refrigerated-unit temperature checks and electrical safety testing can be coordinated with the visit. You receive a service decal and an instrument-specific report for your equipment records.
Request centrifuge calibration
Send the manufacturer, model, serial number and operating speeds for your centrifuges. We will confirm RPM verification, timer checks and any applicable temperature or electrical safety testing.
