Description
Ohaus part number 30472305 is a fixed-angle rotor with 8 positions for 15 mL tubes. Ohaus lists it within the Frontier 5000 rotor series.
Eight places is the smallest 15 mL capacity in this catalogue, below 30314834 at 12 and 30314832 at 30. For a bench running samples in pairs or fours it is usually the right size: a smaller rotor is quicker to load symmetrically, and there are fewer empty positions to reason about when balancing. Unlike 30314832 and 30314834, the part name for 30472305 does not specify an RB/FA tube designation, so tube-bottom geometry should be checked rather than assumed.
Ohaus does not state a maximum speed, maximum RCF, material or temperature rating in the documentation held for this listing, and we will not estimate them. Request the current Ohaus rotor specification for 30472305 and confirm it against your centrifuge’s approved rotor list before purchase.
Frequently asked questions
How many tubes does it hold?+
Eight positions for 15 mL tubes, per the Ohaus designation for part 30472305.
Does it take conical or round-bottom tubes?+
The part name for 30472305 does not carry a tube-bottom designation, unlike 30314832 and 30314834 which are listed as RB/FA. We hold no documentation resolving this, so confirm the tube geometry the rotor is cut for against the Ohaus rotor specification before ordering consumables.
How does it compare with the other 15 mL rotors listed here?+
30472305 holds 8, 30314834 holds 12 and 30314832 holds 30. All three are distinct Ohaus part numbers with distinct approvals, so select by the part number your centrifuge supports and then by throughput.
Which centrifuges does it fit?+
Ohaus catalogues 30472305 within the Frontier 5000 rotor series. Confirm the part number against your instrument's approved rotor list before ordering.
What are the maximum speed and RCF?+
Not stated in the documentation we hold, and we do not publish unsourced rotor ratings. Request the current Ohaus specification for 30472305 and run at the lower of the rotor's and the centrifuge's rated limits.
