Description
Swing-out bucket 3xMTP is a specialised centrifuge accessory designed to accommodate three microtiter plates simultaneously during centrifugation. This hanging bucket supports efficient multi-plate processing in high-throughput laboratory workflows, enabling laboratories to maximise rotor capacity for plate-based assays. With a net weight of 1,44 kg and matching gross weight of 1,44 kg, the unit provides stable, balanced performance when used with compatible swing-out rotors. Supplied as a pack of 2 pieces, these buckets from manufacturer Ohaus offer secure plate retention under centrifugal forces typical of research and clinical protocols. The robust construction suits applications such as ELISA, cell culture work, compound screening and routine sample preparation. Packaging dimensions of 0,28 m depth, 0,18 m width and 0,105 m height, together with a volume of 0,005 m³, allow straightforward storage and handling in busy lab environments. Originating from Germany, this centrifuge accessory integrates readily into existing rotor systems and helps laboratories expand throughput without compromising operational reliability or sample integrity during runs.
This article is part of Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about Bucket 3xMTP 2/pk
What is this article?
Bucket 3xMTP 2/pk is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Ohaus 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.
