Eppendorf Rotor FA-45-20-17 5820765003

The Eppendorf Rotor FA-45-20-17 (part no. 5820765003) is a centrifuge rotor designed to hold twenty 5.0 mL Eppendorf tubes for high-speed sample separation.

Key Features:

• Capacity: 20×5.0 mL Eppendorf tubes, supporting simultaneous processing of multiple standard-volume samples.
• Maximum speed: 20,913×g (13,100 rpm), providing rapid sample separation and efficient sedimentation.
• Aerosol-tight Eppendorf QuickLock rotor lid, ensuring a secure seal to prevent aerosol release.
• Autoclavable rotor, lid, and adapters at 121 °C for 20 min, facilitating sterile operation between runs.
• Anodized aluminum construction for high chemical resistance and structural durability under harsh conditions.
• Capacity is limited to 10 tubes when using screw-capped 5.0 mL Eppendorf tubes, per manufacturer note.
• Includes rotor lid as part of the assembly for immediate use with the rotor.
• A software upgrade may be required on older Eppendorf centrifuges to ensure compatibility with this rotor.

Advantages:

• Large 20-tube capacity enables high-throughput processing of multiple 5 mL samples in a single run.
• High centrifugal force of 20,913×g (13,100 rpm) ensures efficient and rapid sedimentation of particles.
• Aerosol-tight QuickLock lid prevents leakage and cross-contamination, enhancing biosafety and sample integrity.
• Autoclavable rotor, lid, and adapters allow convenient in-situ sterilization without compromising performance.
• Anodized aluminum construction offers excellent chemical resistance and long-term durability under harsh conditions.
