F241.5P Beckman Coulter – Compact performance for your critical separations
The F241.5P angle rotor is an essential part of Beckman Coulter's Microfuge range, renowned for its reliability and consistent performance in laboratories around the world. Specially designed for Microfuge 18 and Microfuge 22R centrifuges, this rotor allows researchers and laboratory technicians to perform fast and efficient separations on small volumes, while ensuring sample safety and equipment durability.
Thanks to its robust polypropylene design, the F241.5P rotor combines light weight, chemical resistance and autoclave compatibility. It holds up to 24 tubes from 1.5 to 2.2 mL, making it particularly suitable for molecular biology applications requiring the processing of multiple samples in parallel. With a maximum speed of 14,000 rpm, this rotor generates a centrifugal force of up to 17,970 × g, enabling fast and homogeneous separation of even the most delicate biological compounds.
The F241.5P rotor features a standard snap-on lid that is convenient and quick to use. For higher biosafety requirements, particularly in laboratories handling sensitive or pathogenic samples, a screw-on lid option is available. This system ensures optimal sample containment, reducing the risk of cross-contamination and accidental exposure.
Designed for use with brushless induction motors, the F241.5P rotor is maintenance-free and delivers reliable, consistent performance. Users can therefore focus on their experimental protocols without worrying about maintenance. In addition, its compatibility with the cooling systems of Microfuge 22R centrifuges ensures optimal thermal stability during critical separation phases, preserving the integrity of heat-sensitive samples.
In the laboratory, the F241.5P rotor is the strategic choice for researchers who demand speed, safety and quality. Whether for nucleic acid extraction, cell lysate clarification or sample preparation for downstream analysis, this rotor offers the flexibility to meet a wide range of experimental needs. By combining well-designed ergonomics, enhanced safety and proven performance, Beckman Coulter confirms its commitment to scientific and technological excellence with the F241.5P.
