The unique cross-over microcentrifuges 5430 and 5430 R combine the 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 additionally, in a compact size, centrifuges 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 x 1.5/2.0 mL). Centrifuges also feature Eppendorf QuickLock® System for quickly opening and closing the rotor lid.
