Eppendorf Centrifuge 5425
Overview This 24-place centrifuge has been engineered to be extremely quiet. Short runs up to 12 minutes are whisper quiet at an average of 45 dB(A). 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. Centrifuge 5425 is the successor of the legendary Centrifuge 5424. It has everything you loved before plus great new features to make everyday work more enjoyable. Soft-touch, one-finger closure for ergonomic lid locking. Features: Whisper quiet microcentrifuge for stress-free work Aerosol-tight Eppendorf QuickLock® lids for simple and safe handling Outstanding software features (e.g. 10 acceleration and braking ramps, 3 program buttons, short function without continous 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 Automatic lid opening at the end of the run – prevents sample warming and allows easy access to samples Max. rotor capacity: 10 × 5.0 mL vessels Max. speed: 21,300 × g (15,060 rpm) Key Attributes RPM 15,060 RCF 21,300 g Refrigeration No Capacity 10 × 5 mL Warranty (years) 2 Manufacturer Specifications model 5425 5425 Max.
