A laboratory centrifuge is a rotor driven instrument designed to separate liquid samples at high rates of speeds. The rotation of the centrifuge induces centripetal acceleration and separates substances based on density. Laboratory centrifuges offer a diverse range of applications for research laboratories, hospitals or any facility that aims to separate material from liquid sample preparations. The model versatility of a centrifuge is dependent on the size of the samples, refrigeration capability, rotor velocity and optical detection potential. The ability of laboratory centrifuges to combine multiple capabilities, such as high speed refrigerated centrifuges, allow robust application in any research setting. Important purchasing considerations for any centrifuge are the type of rotor, noise, corrosion resistance, and model versatility.

These new centrifuges spin rotors for Eppendorf tubes and PCR strips as you would expect from any microcentrifuge. But that’s not all. In a compact size—just over a foot of bench space—Models 5430 and Unique cross-over Centrifuges 5430 and 5430 R bring multipurpose versatility to every lab bench!
These new centrifuges spin rotors for Eppendorf tubes and PCR strips as you would expect from any microcentrifuge. But that’s not all. In a compact size—just over a foot of bench space—Models 5430 and 5430 R also accommodate rotors for microplates, as well as 15 ml and 50 ml conical tubes. Until now, this has only been possible with large multipurpose centrifuges. Refrigerated version 5430 R was developed with you and your applications in mind. The compressor at the back of the centrifuge—characteristic to all Eppendorf microcentrifuges—keeps the footprint small and the access height low. Equipped with the latest innovations in cooling technology such as programmable pre-cooling time, ECO shut-off function and patented, dynamic compressor control, Model 5430 R assures accurate temperature control, highest energy efficiency and ease of operation.
Features - Exceptional versatility—8 different rotors for tubes from 0.2 ml to 50 ml and microplates allow centrifugation of all common vessel formats
- High centrifugation speed of up to 30,130 x g (17,500 rpm)
- Compact footprint saves valuable bench space
- Menu-driven operation with large backlit LCD display for ultra easy operation
- Saves up to 50 programs with program names
- 5 program keys for easy access to routine programs
- Automatic rotor recognition with speed limitation
- Automatic rotor imbalance detection
