Description
Lid for rotor 48 × 2 ml, plastic, 5430 is a polypropylene rotor cover for the F-45-48-11 rotor used on Centrifuge 5430 and 5430R systems. It provides a secure lid for high-capacity processing of microcentrifuge tubes in routine laboratory centrifugation. Manufactured from durable polypropylene, the cover supports reliable operation with the corresponding fixed-angle rotor configuration. Supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,108 kg and a gross weight of 0,120 kg, it serves as a practical spare or replacement part for maintaining continuous centrifuge readiness. This accessory is intended for the F-45-48-11 rotor from manufacturer Eppendorf and integrates directly with Centrifuge 5430/5430R platforms. Laboratories performing molecular biology, clinical or sample-preparation workflows benefit from a purpose-built plastic lid that restores full rotor functionality without unnecessary complexity. The compact packaging volume of 0,002 m³ simplifies storage and inventory handling in busy research and diagnostic environments that rely on these benchtop centrifuges.
This article is part of Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about LID FOR 48x2ML ROTOR, PLASTIC (5430)
What is this article?
LID FOR 48x2ML ROTOR, PLASTIC (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.
