This rotor is compatible only with the SpinCore 1524 and SpinCore 1524 R centrifuge models. The rotor requires round-bottom tubes and must be operated within the specified speed, RCF, and temperature limits.
- Centrifuge Model Compatibility: The rotor is compatible only with the SpinCore 1524 and SpinCore 1524 R centrifuge models.
- Tube and Adapter Compatibility: Confirm that the rotor, adapter, and tube combination is compatible before use.
- Speed and RCF Requirements: Verify that the required speed and RCF values are within the rotor's rated limits for the selected tube format.
- Temperature Consideration: Ensure the operating temperature does not exceed the rotor's specified temperature range.
- Sample Container Format: The sample-container format must match the rotor's tube geometry and size requirements.
Follow these steps to verify compatibility and configure the rotor for safe operation. Each step ensures the rotor is matched to the centrifuge, tubes, and parameters.
Required Equipment: SpinCore 1524 or SpinCore 1524 R centrifuge
- Verify Centrifuge Model
Verify the centrifuge model is either SpinCore 1524 or SpinCore 1524 R. - Confirm Tube Geometry
Confirm the tube size and geometry match the round-bottom rotor format. - Check Speed and RCF Limits
Check the rated speed and RCF limits against the intended separation parameters. - Ensure Temperature Compatibility
Ensure the temperature requirement of the sample does not exceed the rotor's operating range.
What tube geometry is required for the SpinRotor AS 18 5 rotor, and can conical tubes be used?
The SpinRotor AS 18 5 is a round-bottom tube rotor, designed specifically for round-bottom tube geometry. Conical tubes are not recommended because they may not seat properly in the rotor buckets, leading to imbalance during centrifugation. The product description emphasizes confirming tube geometry against the rotor and adapter configuration before use.
Is the SpinRotor AS 18 5 rotor compatible with both SpinCore 1524 and SpinCore 1524 R centrifuges, or only one model?
The rotor is explicitly listed as compatible with both SpinCore 1524 and SpinCore 1524 R centrifuge platforms. No distinction is made between the two models, so the same rotor can be used on either centrifuge. However, the ordering note advises confirming centrifuge model, tube size, and rated speed before quotation to ensure proper fit and performance.
What critical safety checks must be performed before operating the SpinRotor AS 18 5 rotor?
Before operation, confirm rotor, adapter, and tube compatibility with the centrifuge model. Verify that the speed, RCF, temperature requirements, and sample-container format match the selected method. The procurement checklist also requires confirming model, working range, compatibility, consumables, and required configuration. These steps ensure the rotor is used within its safe operating limits.
The SpinRotor AS 18 5 is a round-bottom tube rotor designed for compatibility with SpinCore 1524 and 1524 R centrifuges, requiring precise configuration matching for optimal performance.
Positive
- Compatibility with SpinCore 1524/1524 R: This rotor is specifically designed to work with the SpinCore 1524 and SpinCore 1524 R centrifuge platforms, providing a reliable platform and tube-format selection for targeted separation workflows.
- Round-bottom tube format: The round-bottom tube rotor geometry is suited for specific separation protocols that require a conical or round-bottom tube interface, supporting method-specific centrifugation.
Trade-offs
- Mandatory pre-use configuration verification: The centrifuge model, tube size, and rated speed must be confirmed prior to quotation and use to ensure safe and correct operation, as improper matching can lead to mechanical mismatch or failure.
- Accessories selected separately: Rotor adapters, tubes, and other configuration components are not included and must be selected and ordered separately based on centrifuge model, tube geometry, and rotor format, adding to procurement coordination.
