Eppendorf 5424 Centrifuge w/ Digital Display
The Eppendorf 5424 Centrifuge w/ Digital Display combines efficiency, quiet operation, and advanced features to enhance any lab's workflow. Capable of speeds ranging from 100 to 15,000 RPM and a maximum RCF of 21,130 x g, this centrifuge caters to diverse laboratory needs with its 24 x 1.5/2.0 ml capacity. It includes precise speed increments and a timer that ranges from 30 seconds up to 9:59 hours, or continuous operation for extensive runs. The design emphasizes silence, reducing operational noise significantly, which, along with the option to mute the end-of-run alarm, minimizes lab disturbance. Its durability is ensured with a metal epoxy-coated chamber that's easy to clean, complemented by a two-point lid-lock mechanism for secure operation. Additional features like the SOFT-brake system protect delicate samples during deceleration, and the "SHORT-spin" option allows for quick spins at desired speeds. The centrifuge's advanced lid-locking mechanism ensures effortless, one-finger operation, and automatic opening post-run to prevent sample warming, further enhancing user convenience and sample integrity. This model's compact footprint makes it an ideal fit for any lab bench, integrating seamlessly into varied lab environments. The included FA-45-24-11 Fixed Angle Rotor reaches a maximum speed of 15,000 RPM and a maximum RCF of 21,130 x g.All of our equipment is in excellent condition and will be fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
Please confirm this rotor meets your application needs and request a different rotor, if necessary. Available rotors can be found in our Rotor Compatibility Guide.
The Eppendorf 5424 Centrifuge w/ Digital Display includes:
- > FA-45-24-11 Fixed Angle Rotor w/ Lid
- > NIST Centrifuge Calibration and Preventative Maintenance Report
- > Power Cord
- > Operator's Manual
- > Full 180 Day Parts and Labor Warranty
