Eppendorf 5702R Refrigerated Benchtop Centrifuge with Swing-Out Rotor and Aerosol-Tight Buckets

The Eppendorf 5702R refrigerated benchtop centrifuge is engineered for low- to mid-throughput clinical research and cell culture laboratories requiring reliable, precise centrifugation with temperature control. It features a temperature range of –9°C to 40°C and a broad speed range from 100 to 4400 rpm, generating relative centrifugal forces from 100 x g to 3000 x g, accommodating diverse biological sample preparations.

Key technical features include:

• Swing-out rotor A-4-38 with capacity for 4 x 100 mL round aerosol-tight buckets, each bucket fitted with adapters for 2 x 15 mL tubes (17.2 mm diameter x 121 mm length), plus 3 spare adapters for 50 mL tubes, supporting versatile bioprocessing and molecular diagnostics workflows.
• FastTemp function enables rapid precooling, maintaining optimal sample temperature critical for preserving cell integrity during centrifugation.
• Optimized airflow design minimizes sample warming during runs, essential for sensitive applications in biotechnology and molecular biology.
• ECO shut-off feature activates after 8 hours of inactivity to reduce energy consumption and prolong compressor lifespan, contributing to sustainable laboratory operation.
• Imbalance detection ensures operational safety by preventing damage from rotor imbalance.
• The stainless steel rotor chamber is rust-resistant and easy to clean, suitable for high standards of clinical diagnostics and biomanufacturing environments.
• A key lock prevents accidental changes to centrifuge parameters, safeguarding critical experimental protocols.

This centrifuge model is widely adopted in synthetic biology research, essential for molecular cloning workflows and critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines. Its compact, low-noise design fits comfortably on lab benches, supporting productivity in neuroscience, cell imaging, and fluorescence analysis applications.
