Description
Rotor A-2-MTP with 2×MTP buckets is a two-place swing-bucket rotor for Centrifuge 5430 and Centrifuge 5430 R. It is supplied complete with wind shield, rotor lid and two buckets, and is intended for microtiter plates, PCR plates and deepwell plates with a maximum fill of 0,5 mL per well. Maximum speed is 2204 × g (4680 rpm). The protective-shield design supports quiet operation during plate centrifugation. This accessory from manufacturer Eppendorf expands the plate-handling capability of the 5430 series for high-throughput and multiwell workflows in molecular biology and screening laboratories. Net weight is 4,140 kg and gross weight 4,600 kg, with a packaging volume of 0,019 m³. Country of origin is Germany (Saxony). The rotor is supplied as one complete unit ready for installation on compatible 5430/5430 R centrifuges when multiwell plate processing is required.
This article is part of Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about ROTOR 2xMTP PLATE, A-2-MTP (5430)
What is this article?
ROTOR 2xMTP PLATE, A-2-MTP (5430) 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.
