Description
Rotor FA-45-12-17 is an aerosol-tight fixed-angle rotor supplied complete with rotor lid for high-speed work on the Centrifuge 5427 R. Manufactured from aluminium, it is designed for a maximum capacity of 12 × Eppendorf Tubes® 5,0 mL and reaches a maximum speed of 20.598 × g (14,000 rpm). The included Eppendorf QuickLock® lid supports aerosol-tight operation, helping contain samples during centrifugation of tubes in the 5,0 mL format. This configuration is intended specifically for Centrifuge 5427 R systems and is listed for that instrument family. The rotor and lid combination from manufacturer Eppendorf provides a matched aluminium assembly for routine and demanding laboratory workflows that require secure tube handling at elevated g-forces. Pack size is 1 pc(s), with a net weight of 2,200 kg and a gross weight of 2,340 kg. Packaging volume is 0,007 m³. The unit suits laboratories standardising on the 5427 R platform and needing a dedicated 12-place rotor for Eppendorf Tubes® 5,0 mL under aerosol-tight conditions.
This article is part of Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about ROTOR 12x5ML WITH AT QL LID (5427R)
What is this article?
ROTOR 12x5ML WITH AT QL LID (5427R) 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.
