Devices

The Eppendorf 5425 R centrifuge is a refrigerated laboratory microcentrifuge designed for low-speed applications in clinical research and cell culture work. Thanks to its compact design and quiet operation, it is ideal for working with temperature-sensitive samples. It offers a maximum speed of 15,060 rpm and an RCF up to 21,300 × g, enabling efficient sample separation even at lower speeds. The 5425 R model is equipped with a cooling function, providing a temperature range from –10 °C to 40 °C, ensuring sample stability during centrifugation.

This device is an in vitro diagnostic medical device (IVD) Class A under Regulation (EU) 2017/746 (IVDR).
