Description
Adapter for 5/15 mL conical vessels is a centrifuge rotor accessory designed for the S-4x400 rotor. It accommodates seven vessels, covering Eppendorf Tubes® 5,0 mL as well as 15 mL conical tubes, and is delivered as a set of two pieces for balanced rotor loading. This dual-format compatibility supports flexible sample handling in molecular biology, cell culture and general laboratory centrifugation workflows. Net weight is 0,500 kg and gross weight is 0,550 kg, with a packaging volume of 0,004 m³. Produced by manufacturer Eppendorf, the adapter is intended for secure positioning of the stated tube formats within the S-4x400 rotor during routine runs. The two-piece pack allows operators to equip opposing positions and maintain rotor balance. Suitable for laboratories that process mixed 5,0 mL and 15 mL conical samples, this accessory provides a practical fit solution for established centrifuge systems where correct adapters are required for stable vessel support and efficient throughput.

Questions about Adapter, 5/15mL con. Tubes/S-4x400/2 pcs
What is this article?
Adapter, 5/15mL con. Tubes/S-4x400/2 pcs is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Eppendorf for laboratory use. It sits in Rotors, inside Centrifuges, in Lab instruments.
A centrifuge rotor is the rotating part that holds the tubes, and it is rated for a maximum speed and a maximum load. A swing-out rotor and a fixed-angle rotor pellet differently. A rotor from another centrifuge does not belong on this drive, even when it seems to fit.
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.
