Eppendorf 5425/5425 R - Microcentrifuge
These 24-place microcentrifuges have been engineered to be extremely quiet. Short runs up to 12 minutes are whisper quiet at an average noise level of 45 dB(A) and maximum speed of up to 21,300 × g. This is sufficient for centrifugation steps of most routinely used DNA/RNA purification kits. During longer runs the cooling fan works at full capacity to dissipate the heat for the remainder of the run. As successors to the popular Centrifuge 5424/5424 R, these two new models include everything you loved about the previous models, plus new rotors and software functions to make your everyday work more efficient and enjoyable.
The improved cooling system of the Centrifuge 5425 R ensures optimal separation results and reliable cooling at 4 °C, even at maximum rotor speed. With a short pre-cooling time of only 8 minutes (~21 °C to 4 °C), the centrifuge is ready for operation when you are.
Features
- Aerosol-tight Eppendorf QuickLock® lids for simple and safe handling
- Outstanding software features (e.g. adjustable acceleration and braking ramps, 3 program buttons (only Centrifuge 5425), short function without continuous pressing of the key)
- Extended rotor program (e.g. 5.0 mL rotor, swing-bucket rotor for PCR strips)
- OptiBowl® design for quiet operation, even without a rotor lid
- Soft-touch one-finger lid closure for ergonomic operation
- Max. rotor capacity: 10 × 5.0 mL vessels
- Max. speed: 21,300 × g (15,060 rpm)
Special features for Centrifuge 5425 R
- Outstanding cooling system for processing temperature-sensitive samples from 0.2?–?5 mL
- The compressor technology reduces vibrations and protects your samples
- Temperature range: -10 °C to +40 °C
