Description
Rotor FA-45-18-11 is a fixed-angle aluminium rotor with aerosol-tight AT-QL lid for Centrifuge 5418 and Centrifuge 5418 R, configured for 18 × 1,5/2,0 ml vessels. The 45° angle and eighteen sample positions support efficient pelleting and separation workflows with microcentrifuge tubes up to a maximum vessel diameter of 11 mm. An aluminium rotor lid with the Eppendorf QuickLock® mechanism enables fast, reliable aerosol-tight closure for safer handling of potentially hazardous samples. Designed specifically for the Centrifuge 5418/5418 R platform from manufacturer Eppendorf, this rotor is supplied complete with the matching lid as a ready-to-use assembly. Net weight is 0,990 kg and gross weight 1,100 kg. Typical laboratory use includes nucleic acid preparation, protein work-up, cell debris clarification and other routine microlitre centrifugations where an 18-place 1,5/2,0 ml fixed-angle rotor with aerosol-tight QuickLock® lid is required. The combination of defined capacity, 45° geometry and aerosol-tight AT-QL closure makes Rotor FA-45-18-11 a core accessory for 5418-series microcentrifuges.

Questions about ROTOR 18x2ML WITH A-T QUICK LID (5418)
What is this article?
ROTOR 18x2ML WITH A-T QUICK LID (5418) 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.
