Description
Adapter 50 mL conical vessels, PL/TB is a centrifuge rotor adapter designed to secure six 50 mL conical vessels in the S-4x1000 rotor fitted with Plate/Tube buckets. It provides a stable, dedicated holder for mid-capacity 50 mL conical-tube runs on that rotor platform. Delivered as a set of two pieces, the adapters allow balanced loading and efficient parallel processing of six-tube batches. The compact format suits laboratories that need reliable vessel positioning without occupying the full multi-tube capacity of larger adapters. Manufactured by Eppendorf, it matches the mechanical interface of Plate/Tube bucket systems used with the S-4x1000 rotor. Net weight is 0,675 kg (gross 0,750 kg) with a packaging volume of 0,005 m³, simplifying storage and inventory handling. Appropriate for clinical, industrial and academic centrifugation applications involving 50 mL conical vessels, this accessory expands practical sample options on the S-4x1000 while remaining straightforward to install and use in daily laboratory routines.
This article is part of Rotor adapters & accessories, in Centrifuges.

Questions about Adapter 50 mL conical tubes, PL/TB
What is this article?
Adapter 50 mL conical tubes, PL/TB is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Eppendorf for laboratory use. It sits in Rotor adapters & accessories, inside Centrifuges, in Lab instruments.
An adapter lets a rotor spun for large tubes accept smaller ones. The adapter has to be the one for that rotor, and the tubes have to be supported at the shoulder the adapter was designed for. A stack of the wrong inserts is an unbalanced load.
A centrifuge separates by density. The rotor spins the sample and the force is reported as a multiple of gravity, not as a raw speed, because the same revolutions per minute are a different force at a different radius. A microcentrifuge takes small tubes. A benchtop or floor model takes larger rotors. The tube, the adapter and the rotor have to be the combination the manufacturer rated. An unbalanced load is how centrifuges fail. Measurement of the related quantities sits with the BIPM.
