As an integral part of the Eppendorf Microliter System, Eppendorf introduced their very first centrifuge in 1964. It revolutionized laboratory practices worldwide and the Eppendorf name remains synonymous with innovative technology, reliable performance and creative design. Eppendorf offers a comprehensive line of microcentrifuges that fulfill your daily laboratory requirements. Whether you want to spin a few tubes at a time or you demand extra versatility for handling larger tube volumes or plates, Eppendorf has the bench-top microcentrifuge solution for you.

Centrifuge 5424 and Centrifuge 5424 R are the new laboratory standard. With their 24-place capacity and speed up to 21,130 × g they are perfectly equipped for all modern molecular biology applications in Eppendorf and PCR tubes. When working with spin columns kits, the 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 ens! ure 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.

Unique cross-over Centrifuge 5430 and 5430 R combine the best features of a microcentrifuge (small footprint) and multipurpose centrifuge (versatility) in one instrument. These centrifuges spin rotors for Eppendorf tubes and PCR strips as you would expect from any microcentrifuge. But that′s not all. In a compact size, Centrifuge 5430 and 5430 R also accommodate rotors for microplates and 15/50 mL conical tubes. Now, the rotor program has been expanded with additional Eppendorf QuickLock rotors. This includes 48-place rotors (1.5/2.0 mL), a 16-place rotor for Eppendorf Tubes 5.0 mL and a swing-bucket rotor (24 × 1.5/2.0 mL).

The 5702 family of low speed, general purpose centrifuges was especially designed to meet the requirement of low- to mid-throughput clinical research and cell culture labs. They are compact in design so that one can fit comfortably on every lab bench, quiet in operation to benefit your work environment, and provide 6 different rotor options to accommodate any type of tube.

Powerful and user-friendly MiniSpin and MiniSpin plus are small enough so that each workstation can be equipped with a "personal" centrifuge. Two models are available to meet your performance requirements. MiniSpin plus provides speed sufficient for molecular biology separations.
