Description
Centrifuge 5420 is a non-refrigerated benchtop microcentrifuge supplied without a rotor and equipped with a foil keypad for straightforward operation and cleaning. Designed for routine laboratory sample processing, this 230 V / 50–60 Hz unit is configured for the GB/HK power region and forms part of the established 5420 series from manufacturer Eppendorf. The instrument is delivered as a single complete unit ready for pairing with a compatible rotor chosen according to tube format and workflow needs. Compact packaging of 0,064 m³ and a net weight of 12,950 kg (gross weight 16,800 kg) support efficient handling and installation on the laboratory bench. Originating from Germany (Saxony), the centrifuge addresses everyday microcentrifugation tasks where a non-cooled platform with a durable foil control panel is preferred. Laboratories can integrate the base unit into existing Eppendorf rotor ecosystems while maintaining a clean, wipeable operator interface suited to busy bench environments.
This article is part of Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about Cent 5420, Keypad, w/o Rotor, 230V,GB/HK
What is this article?
Cent 5420, Keypad, w/o Rotor, 230V,GB/HK 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.
