Centrifuge 5424 and Centrifuge 5424 R are the new laboratory standard. With their 24-place capacity and speed up to 21,130 x g they are perfectly equipped for all modern molecular biology applications in Eppendorf and PCR tubes. When working with MiniPrep spin columns kits, the unique Eppendorf Kit rotor® with raised rim solves the issue of open tube caps shearing off during the elution step. Refrigerated Centrifuge 5424 R features state of the art cooling technology to ensure energy efficiency and high temperature accuracy for maximum sample protection. For ease-of-operation and time savings, Centrifuge 5424 R cools down to 4 °C in only 8 minutes. Max. rotor capacity: 24 x 1.5/2.0 mL vessels Max. speed: 20,238?×?g (14,680 rpm) OptiBowl® design for quiet operation, even without a rotor lid
