Description 


High-performance Microcentrifuge 5417 R* spins up to 25,000 x g 

for quick and efficient pelletization. It is compact, easy to use, 

offers unsurpassed safety and reliability and accommodates a 

variety of microcentrifuge rotors. 

Key features include: an easy-to-read display and simple, self- 

explanatory programming; short acceleration and braking times 

at maximum rcf and large capacity; CFC-free Fast Temp function 

rapidly cools the unit down to 4 °C, which is also maintained during 

centrifugation at maximum rotational speed; and standby cooling 

keeps the centrifuge at the required temperature.

Description 


Customer’s needs are the reason we continue to advance our 

success story for the 5702 series. We have expanded the line with 

the addition of two new models: the refrigerated Centrifuge 5702 R 

and the temperature-controlled Centrifuge 5702 RH. 

All 5702 models can be used in a range of settings, from the 

clinical lab to the cell culture lab. With various fixed-angle and 

swing-bucket rotors available, they can accommodate almost 

any kind of tube. 

Another advantage is that we have designed all rotors within 

the 5702 line to be interchangeable.

Description 

 


This model has all the product characteristics that make 

refrigerated Eppendorf centrifuges so outstanding: 

You can quickly reach the desired temperature by using the “Fast 

Temp” function. Likewise, standby refrigeration will maintain a 

particular temperature following use. Precise centrifugation is made 

possible through the “At Set rpm” function: time is counted down 

once the set rpm is reached; and as a result, different centrifugal 

runs can be more easily reproduced.

Description 

For active cells, Eppendorf offers a centrifuge with unique 

temperature control capabilities. It is the first centrifuge from 

Eppendorf that can consistently maintain special temperatures 

above room temperature. Temperature-sensitive cells or 

cell cultures can be centrifuged at defined temperatures, 

particularly at 37 °C.

which together do not exceed a maximum weight of 0.418 lb/0.19 kg, can be put in one round 

bucket. Rectangular bucket sets are delivered with buckets of one weight class. Adapters and tubes, 

which together do not exceed a maximum of 0.528 lb/0.24 kg, can be put in one rectangular bucket. 

The following applies to rotors with round buckets, as well as to rotors with rectangular buckets: 

The total weight of a loaded bucket (including adapter and filled tubes) may not exceed 

0.836 lb/0.38 kg. The weight given on the rotor applies to buckets (including their load).

Centrifuges 5804/5804 R and 5810/5810 R 

Unparalleled versatility 

Featuring powerful, maintenance-free motors, these models 

accommodate a variety of rotors to meet your application 

needs. They are three centrifuges in one: a high-capacity, 

general-purpose centrifuge for cell harvesting; a high-speed 

centrifuge for separating cell lysates; and a microcentrifuge 

for DNA precipitations. 



For lower capacity needs in one compact unit, Model 5804 and 

refrigerated Model 5804 R spin volumes from 0.2 ml to 4 x 100 ml 

at low-to-high speeds for a wide range of applications. These 

centrifuges can accommodate capacities of up to 16 x 15 ml 

conical (Falcon ® ) or 30 microcentrifuge tubes per run. 

Model 5810 and refrigerated Model 5810 R* offer maximum 

application versatility and popular tube capacity, accommodating 

up to 4 x 400 ml tubes or 16 microplates. These compact, 

benchtop centrifuges achieve remarkable throughput of up to 

48 x 15 ml or 20 x 50 ml conical (Falcon) tubes.

Interchangeable rotors and adapters 

Simple adapters for swing-bucket rotors Description 

‡ All rotors, buckets and 


(121 °C, 20 min) 

‡ Stackable modular adapters 

for swing-bucket rotors are 

easy to disassemble for 

vessels of different lengths 


‡ Adapters are color-coded for 

quick and simple identification 

‡ Buckets can be easily 

sealed with aerosol-tight 

covers to provide protection 

against biohazardous samples 

Our multipurpose centrifuges accommodate both fixed-angle and 

swing-bucket rotors for a variety of applications. A large selection 

of adapters allows maximum application flexibility with a minimum 

number of rotors. 


Their modular construction allows centrifugation of virtually all 

commercially available tubes. The adapter modules can be stacked 

until the required tube height is attained and then lowered onto the 

holders in the rectangular buckets. Additional exchangeable swing 

buckets for MTPs and 50 ml conical tubes are available. 

The stable plastic adapters are solidly constructed and can be 

easily cleaned—even autoclaved in their entirety in the event of 

contamination with biologically active sample material.

Overview of rotors for Centrifuges 5804/5804 R and 5810/5810 R 

Description 

Centrifuges 5804 (refrigerated version 5804 R) and 5810 (refrigerated 

version 5810 R)* together with the high-performance, high-capacity 

swing-bucket rotors accommodate virtually all commercially 

available tubes from 0.5 ml to 400 ml. 

Buckets for microplates and deepwell plates can be inserted 

directly into our swing-bucket rotors to accommodate commonly 

used filter-plate systems.

1 Aerosol-tightness has been tested and approved in accordance with the procedure of Bennett 

et al. from the Centre for Applied Microbiology & Research, CAMR, Port Down, Great Britain, and 

according to annex AA of the IEC 1010-2-020 safety standard. The test procedure simulates the 

accidental release of biological material (bacteria) inside the closed rotor or closed rectangular 

bucket. Air and swab samples are taken to ensure that no material is released from the closed 

rectangular buckets or closed rotor during operation.

The rotor family for Centrifuges 5804/5804 R and 5810/5810 R 

consists of fixed-angle rotors for tubes from 0.2 ml to 85 ml, a 

special rotor for PCR strips and a drum rotor for up to 60 x 1.5/2 ml 

micro test tubes. Please note, however, that Swing-bucket Rotors 

A-4-81 (4 x 400 ml), A-4-81-MTP/Flex, A-4-62 (4 x 250 ml) and A-4- 

62-MTP can only be used in Models 5810/5810 R (see table below). 

A rotor stand that fits all rotors for Centrifuges 5804/5804 R and 

5810/5810 R is also available. 

2 The swing-bucket rotor can be ordered as A-4-81 (loaded with tube buckets) or 

as A-4-81-MTP/Flex (loaded with microplate buckets). 

3 The swing-bucket rotor can be ordered as A-4-62 (loaded with tube buckets) or 

as A-4-62-MTP (loaded with microplate buckets).

level 0 means “free deceleration,” whereby considerable fluctuations can occur with this

*The deceleration times for the 230 V and 120 V devices are almost identical. 

When the maximum tube length is exceeded, this can decrease the load capacity of the adapters. 

In this case please be sure to carry out a manual swing test. In addition, the use of tubes with oversized 

lids can result in a decrease of the load capacity of the adapter. Swing-bucket rotors are delivered with 

buckets from one weight class. When reordering buckets, please provide the already existing weight 

class. This is imprinted in the side of the nut, e.g., “86.” Please note the manufacturer specifications for 

the maximum centrifugation capacity of tubes, kits, plates and plate stacks.

1 The CombiSlide includes a flexible component set that enables the use of glass slides across and 

parallel to the direction of centrifugation for all of the buckets shown below. 

2 With the A-2-DWP, only half of the plates/glass slides can be used per rotor. 

3 With the A-2-DWP, a slightly lower rcf of approx. 2,200 x g is reached at a max. rotational speed 

of 3,700 rpm and a reduced radius. 

4 The probability of glass breakage increases with an exertion greater than the allowed rcf of 

100 x g. The limiting data from the manufacturer of the glass slides/microarrays with respect 

to endurance must be observed in each case. A test run with empty glass slides from the 

manufacturer is recommended.
