Concentrator Plus - Centrifuge Concentrator

With its advanced heating technology, the Eppendorf Concentrator plus facilitates fast and efficient, gentle vacuum concentration of DNA, RNA, nucleotides, proteins and other liquid or wet samples. Its new coated lid provides superior chemical resistance against many acids and organic solvents.

Concentrator plus overview

The latest Concentrator plus provides an ergonomic, intuitive and durable solution that fits comfortably on any lab bench. The coated lid improves durability by providing chemical resistance against acids and organic solvents. The Eppendorf concentrator is available in three configurations, designed to meet your individual laboratory needs:

• The basic Concentrator plus system for connection to an external vacuum pump
• The Concentrator plus complete system with an integrated, solvent-resistant, maintenance and oil-free PTFE diaphragm vacuum pump and condensation trap
• The same Concentrator plus complete system, but with an extra vacuum port added so you can use the integrated pump separately without having to disconnect it

Centrifuge concentrator with excellent versatility

The Concentrator Plus has three main operation modes: Concentrate, centrifuge and desiccator – to cover all your application needs. Processing times are reduced by up to 20 % thanks to the ability to choose between three application modes that correspond to sample solvent (aqueous, alcohol or high vapour pressure). The choice of four heating levels (ambient, 30 °C, 45 °C, 60 °C) enables safe and efficient concentration of various samples. When working with delicate samples you also have the option to turn off the brake function.

• Swing–bucket rotor for MTP, PCR, and deep well plates up to 27–mm high (A–2–VC).

Centrifuge 5427 R - Microcentrifuge

The Eppendorf Centrifuge 5427 R is a high-speed, refrigerated microcentrifuge for high-throughput research. It doubles your tube capacity compared to a standard 24-place microcentrifuge thanks to its 48-place double-row rotor, while contributing to a more sustainable lab environment with its natural refrigerant.

Global warming and its consequences are one of the greatest challenges of our time. Hydrofluorocarbons, which have been used as refrigerants in cooling systems such as air-conditioners as well as laboratory centrifuges or freezers in the past, can contribute to global warming due to their chemical structure. To protect our planet for future generations, it is important to switch to much more environmentally friendly, “green” cooling agents − hydrocarbons. These natural coolants have a Global Warming Potential similar to CO₂. To support this matter in the laboratory environment, Eppendorf now offers the first centrifuge in our portfolio with a natural refrigerant to protect your samples − and the planet.

The refrigerated microcentrifuge Centrifuge 5427 R was designed with high-throughput research applications in mind. With its aerosol-tight 48-place rotor it handles even the toughest challenges in a safe and reliable manner to provide you the efficiency boost you need. With speeds of up to 25,001 x g, this microcentrifuge is fast enough for all your molecular biology applications. All aerosol-tight rotors are equipped with the Eppendorf QuickLock lids for easy rotor lid opening and closing to enable safe centrifugation of hazardous samples. Choose the Centrifuge 5427 R if a 24-place microcentrifuge doesn’t meet your needs regarding tube capacity and if you don’t need the extra versatility our cross-over Centrifuge 5430 R can offer you.
