Description
Aluminium rotor for 18 × 5 ml tubes, for model D3024 is a durable centrifuge rotor accessory for the D3024 high-speed mini centrifuge, configured to accept eighteen 5 ml tubes. It extends the instrument’s capacity beyond standard microcentrifuge formats and supports biochemical and chemical analyses on micro and small-volume samples, including sedimentation of biological components. Built from aluminium with high resistance, the rotor can be sterilised in an autoclave for an effectively unlimited lifetime when handled according to good laboratory practice. Its bio-safe concept is intended to limit unintended leakage and to favour centrifugation free from microbial contamination. This optional rotor from manufacturer Labbox forms part of the DLAB rotor and adapter range for the D3024 platform, which also includes formats for 0,2 ml to 2 ml tubes. Supplied as a single piece, it is suited to laboratories that need flexible tube geometry on a compact high-speed mini centrifuge while retaining robust metal construction, clean sample handling and repeatable autoclave sterilisation for routine and research workflows.
This article is part of Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about Aluminum alloy rotor kit , 18 x 5 ml, for D3024 series
What is this article?
Aluminum alloy rotor kit , 18 x 5 ml, for D3024 series is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox 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.
