The centrifuge exploits the natural law of centrifugal force for the quick precipitation of solids from liquids and for which new applications are constantly being found in solence, medicine and industry.

These range from the testing of radio valves for stress resistance to the preparation of blood plasma and vaccines, and the testing of soli. The large capacity model, destined for Ceylon, is similar to that used by the late Sir Alexander Fleming in kla development of pentelllin.
