Description
Rotor F-45-22-17 is a laboratory rotor with 22 positions for Eppendorf Tubes® 5,0 mL measuring 17 × 59,4–67,4 mm. Built for Concentrator plus systems, it supports a maximum load of 22 × 5,0 mL and accepts both snap-cap and screw-cap vessel options. Vessel diameter is 17 mm with heights from 59,4 mm to 67,4 mm, covering the usual 5,0 mL tube envelope. Maximum relative centrifugal force is 242 × g at a maximum speed of 1400 rpm, and each bore may carry up to 10 g including vessel and sample. The rotor is supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,720 kg and a gross weight of 0,800 kg, suited to concentrated sample work in small-volume formats. This F-45-22-17 rotor from manufacturer Eppendorf gives high parallel capacity for 5,0 mL tubes in concentrator applications. It is a practical choice where many mid-small samples must be processed together under controlled speed and g-force limits without changing adapters between snap-lid and screw-lid tubes.
This article is part of Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about Rotor F-45-22-17, for 5 mL tubes
What is this article?
Rotor F-45-22-17, for 5 mL tubes 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.
