Rotor FA-45-24-11

FA-45-24-11 Fixed-Angle Rotor: High-Speed, Safety, and Precision

The Eppendorf FA-45-24-11 is a state-of-the-art fixed-angle rotor designed to meet the demands of high-speed centrifugation in modern laboratories. With a maximum rotational speed of 13,200 rpm and a centrifugal force of up to 19,090 × g, this rotor is ideal for critical tasks such as nucleic acid purification, protein isolation, cell sedimentation, and other molecular biology applications. Its robust design and ability to handle small volumes make it a versatile tool in bioscience, clinical, and industrial labs alike.

One of the standout features of the FA-45-24-11 rotor is its capacity to hold up to 24 micro test tubes with a volume of 2.0 mL or 24 spin columns. This capability ensures high throughput, making it ideal for labs that handle multiple samples at once. The rotor boasts a maximum load per bore of 3.75 g, including the adapter, tube, and sample, providing excellent balance during centrifugation.

For labs prioritizing safety, the FA-45-24-11 comes equipped with a QuickLock® rotor lid, which provides aerosol-tight sealing. This is especially important when working with potentially hazardous samples, as it minimizes the risk of aerosol contamination and ensures a safe working environment. The QuickLock® lid also simplifies the process of locking the rotor, allowing users to close and open it with minimal effort, thus speeding up sample processing and enhancing the workflow.

The rotor’s maximum centrifugation radius of 9.8 cm enables it to generate significant centrifugal force, ensuring efficient sample separation in minimal time. Despite its powerful performance, the FA-45-24-11 remains compact, fitting into most standard microcentrifuges, and is easy to install and remove.

Designed with durability in mind, the FA-45-24-11 is made from high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials. This ensures long-term usability, even when frequently used with a variety of solvents and buffers. Additionally, the rotor’s fixed-angle design is optimal for sedimentation processes, particularly when working with small particles or pellets, ensuring uniform separation.

Beyond performance, the FA-45-24-11 rotor is engineered for user convenience. The QuickLock® feature not only enhances safety but also reduces the time spent handling the rotor. Its ergonomic design allows for easy loading and unloading of tubes, making it well-suited for high-throughput laboratories where speed and efficiency are key.

The rotor’s versatility is further demonstrated by its compatibility with Eppendorf microcentrifuges, offering an ideal solution for a range of applications. Whether your work involves molecular biology, protein chemistry, or clinical diagnostics, the FA-45-24-11 ensures consistent and reliable results every time.

In conclusion, the Eppendorf FA-45-24-11 rotor is a powerful, reliable, and user-friendly tool for laboratories requiring high-speed centrifugation. Its combination of high capacity, safety features, and robust design make it an invaluable asset for routine and advanced lab applications.
