At Laboratory Procurement Services (LPS) we are committed to offering a wide range of affordable laboratory equipment, from microscopes and centrifuges to electrophoresis systems, ultralow freezers and balances to researchers, educators, and healthcare professionals. Our mission is to ensure that the cost of equipment does not hinder progress in scientific research and innovation.
LPS streamlines the procurement process, to allow our customers to spend more time performing the critical processes needed to help their company succeed. Contact us today for assistance in selecting the best equipment for your requirements.
Before ordering equipment, check the electrical requirements: products are listed for specific voltages and frequencies, such as 120V/60Hz or 208-240V, and some need a dedicated circuit. Measure the space you have, including clearance for ventilation and door swing on refrigerators and freezers. Check what the unit needs to run, such as a water feed and replacement cartridges for water purification systems, electrodes and buffers for meters, or rotors and adapters for centrifuges, and confirm that parts and consumables are available for the model. If you work under a quality system, look for data logging, temperature monitoring or GLP features.
Equipment: common questions
What equipment does a biopharmaceutical lab need?
Most biopharmaceutical and life science labs rely on balances, pipettes and dispensers, centrifuges, mixers and shakers, incubators and water baths, laboratory refrigerators and ultralow freezers, pH and conductivity meters, and water purification systems. Cell culture work also needs biological safety cabinets and CO2 incubators. The exact list depends on the processes, sample types and regulatory requirements of the lab.
What is the difference between rpm and g-force on a centrifuge?
Rpm is how many times the rotor turns per minute. G-force, or relative centrifugal force (RCF), is the force actually applied to the sample, and it depends on both speed and rotor radius. Because rotors differ in radius, the same rpm can give different g-forces on different centrifuges, so many protocols specify x g. Most centrifuges can display or convert between the two.
What should I check on electrical equipment before ordering?
Confirm the voltage, frequency and plug type match your outlet; a 208-240V unit will not run on a standard 120V outlet. Check the current draw, since large freezers, chillers and ovens may need a dedicated circuit. Also allow the clearance around the unit that the manufacturer specifies for air flow and service.
How long does lab equipment take to arrive?
Many items ship directly from the manufacturer, so lead times vary by item. Orders can be placed online, and approved business accounts can pay by purchase order. For lead times or pricing on several items, contact LPS through the Contact Us page.
