Description
Centrifuge 5418 R with 18 × 2 ml aerosol-tight rotor is a refrigerated benchtop microcentrifuge for temperature-controlled processing of small sample volumes. The unit is supplied including rotor FA-45-18-11 and is configured for 230 V / 50–60 Hz operation (Switzerland specification). Designed for molecular biology, clinical research, and routine laboratory workflows that require cooling during centrifugation of up to eighteen 2 ml tubes in an aerosol-tight rotor format. Net weight is 25 kg and gross weight is 26 kg, reflecting a compact yet robust instrument footprint for the bench. This cooled centrifuge package from manufacturer Eppendorf combines the 5418 R base with the matching FA-45-18-11 rotor so laboratories can run temperature-sensitive micro-volume protocols without sourcing the rotor separately. Suitable where refrigerated microcentrifugation and aerosol-tight sample containment are part of standard operating practice.
This article is part of Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about CENT 5418R, 18x2ML AT-ROTOR,
What is this article?
CENT 5418R, 18x2ML AT-ROTOR, 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.
