Description
Plate/tube bucket S-4x1000 is a centrifuge rotor accessory provided as a set of two pieces for the S-4x1000 rotor. In plate/tube bucket form it enables processing of microplates and tubes on the same swing-bucket platform, which is useful when laboratories need interchangeable carriers without changing the rotor. The two-piece set is suitable for partial rotor equipping, replacement of worn buckets or paired use where only two positions are required for a given protocol. Net weight is 3,150 kg and gross weight is 3,500 kg; packaging volume is 0,044 m³, consistent with a robust metal or composite laboratory carrier set. Produced by Eppendorf, the buckets are classified among centrifuge accessories and are designated for rotor S-4x1000. Typical environments include molecular biology, clinical chemistry and biobanking laboratories that already run compatible Eppendorf centrifuges and need additional or spare plate/tube buckets. Origin is Germany (Saxony). Always match buckets in opposing rotor positions, respect maximum load ratings and follow the centrifuge operating manual and local laboratory safety rules when centrifuging plates or tubes.
This article is part of Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about Plate/tube bucket S-4x1000 2-piece set
What is this article?
Plate/tube bucket S-4x1000 2-piece set 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.
