- L. Fernández · Tier-1 buyer · 13 Mar
Is single-phase 230 V strict, or can it run on a 208 V North-American circuit with a transformer?
Seller reply · 13 MarStrictly 230 V · 50 Hz spec. Happy to ship with a compatible buck-boost transformer on quote — adds about 14 kg to the crate.
- S. Karlsson · Tier-2 buyer · 11 Mar
Are the rotors in the biosafety decon scope, or bench-cleaned only?
Seller reply · 11 MarBoth rotors are in the biosafety decon scope — sealed autoclaved on 14 Feb, certificate attached.
