Description
Rotor F-45-48-11 with lid is a fixed-angle rotor for Centrifuge 5430 and 5430 R, delivered inclusive of the rotor lid for parallel processing of small reaction vessels. It accepts up to 48 × 1,5/2,0 ml tubes and reaches a maximum relative centrifugal force of 18.213 × g at 12,700 rpm, making it suitable for routine pelleting, clarification and sample preparation in molecular biology, biochemistry and general life-science laboratories. The included lid secures tubes during operation on the specified 5430 series instruments, supporting stable high-capacity runs when many 1,5/2,0 ml vessels must be spun together. This rotor (Eppendorf) is intended as a dedicated accessory for Centrifuge 5430/5430 R workflows that prioritise tube count and consistent fixed-angle separation at the stated speed and g-force limits. Offered as one piece with lid, it provides a straightforward capacity upgrade path for laboratories standardising on the 5430 platform. Always observe rotor, tube and instrument load limits and balancing guidance so that speed, temperature and mechanical safety remain within the manufacturer’s operating envelope during everyday centrifugation tasks.
This article belongs on Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about ROTOR 48x2ML WITH LID (5430)
What is this article?
ROTOR 48x2ML WITH LID (5430) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Eppendorf for laboratory use. It sits in Rotors, inside Centrifuges, in Instruments de précision.
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.
