Eppendorf 5402 Manual Updated
If the cooling system fails to reach target temperatures, check the condenser coils at the base or back of the unit. Vacuum away dust buildup to restore optimal airflow.
Clean the rotor chamber at the end of the day with a damp cloth and mild dish soap.

Understanding the technical limits of your Eppendorf 5402 ensures safe operation and prevents experimental failures. 14,000 RPM (Rotations Per Minute) Maximum RCF: 16,000 × g (Relative Centrifugal Force) Temperature Range: -9°C to +40°C eppendorf 5402 manual updated
Capable of dropping the rotor chamber from 20∘C20 raised to the composed with power C 4∘C4 raised to the composed with power C in approximately 10 minutes.
💡 Even legacy equipment runs better when the team is on the same page regarding operation.

The updated Eppendorf 5402 manual includes several new features and improvements:
Typically accommodates a 24-place fixed-angle rotor for 1.5 mL and 2.0 mL microcentrifuge tubes.
Set the countdown timer. For short spins, utilize the "Fast" or "Short" button to pulse-spin samples. Step 4: Initiating and Ending the Run If you need the or a searchable text
Ensure the stainless steel rotor chamber is clean, dry, and free of ice buildup or debris.
Can be set for short-spin cycles, timed runs from 1 to 99 minutes, or continuous operation ("Hold" mode).
