The Revvity CF-220 8 x 15 mL Conical Tube Rotor (438526) is an RA 8/15 fixed-angle rotor with tube shields for compatible CF-220 centrifuges. It accommodates up to eight 15 mL conical centrifuge tubes and operates at speeds up to 6,000 rpm, generating a maximum centrifugal force of 4,185 rcf.
Key Features
- Processes eight 15 mL conical tubes, providing a dedicated rotor format for routine tube-based centrifugation
- Includes protective tube shields, as part of the manufacturer-specified RA 8/15 rotor configuration
- Supports additional blood collection tube sizes, with compatibility for tubes from 5 to 12 mL
- Accepts optional A5 adapters, using part number 450281 for compatible 5 mL blood collection tubes
- Accommodates tubes up to 17 x 120 mm, defining the maximum compatible tube dimensions
- Uses a 35° fixed-angle configuration, maintaining consistent angled tube positioning during centrifugation
- Reaches speeds up to 6,000 rpm, matching the specified maximum operating speed
- Generates up to 4,185 rcf, providing the manufacturer-stated maximum centrifugal force
- Features a 101.6 mm rotor radius, matching the defined RA 8/15 rotor geometry
- Designed specifically for the CF-220, providing manufacturer-confirmed centrifuge compatibility
Note: A5 adapters, part number 450281, are required when processing compatible 5 mL blood collection tubes. One adapter pack contains eight adapters, sufficient to equip every rotor position. This rotor is for research use only and is not intended for use in diagnostic procedures.
Benefits
- Processes up to eight 15 mL conical tube samples in one organised centrifuge run.
- Extends the rotor to compatible blood collection tube workflows from 5 to 12 mL.
- Supports 5 mL blood collection tubes through a complete eight-position A5 adapter pack.
- Provides defined speed, force and tube-dimension limits for straightforward rotor configuration.
- Simplifies accessory selection through dedicated compatibility with the Revvity CF-220 centrifuge.
