Introducing our refrigerated microcentrifuge with natural refrigerant: the Eppendorf Centrifuge 5427 R
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 CO 2 . 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.
Cooled with natural refrigerant (R290) to protect your samples - and the planet
Rotor capacity (up to): 48 × 1.5/2.0 mL, 12 × 5.0 mL; Eppendorf QuickLock® rotor allows for fast and ergonomic lid locking
Max. speed: 25,001 × g (16,220 rpm)
High capacity 48-place rotor significantly increases productivity to save you valuable time
