Description
Ohaus part number 83041007 is a hematocrit rotor with 24 capillary positions, carrying the V2 designation in the manufacturer’s part name. Ohaus lists it within the Frontier 5000 rotor series.
Microhaematocrit work uses a dedicated rotor rather than a tube rotor with adapters: sealed capillaries are held radially under a retaining plate and spun until the cells pack, after which the packed cell volume is read from the capillary against a scale. The result is only meaningful when the spin matches the conditions the method specifies, which makes the rotor’s rated speed a method-critical figure rather than a convenience specification.
This catalogue lists a second part, 30472304, with an identical description. We hold no documentation explaining the difference between them, nor any stating a maximum speed, RCF, spin time, capillary dimension, or whether a retaining plate or reading scale is supplied. Request the current Ohaus rotor specification for 83041007 and confirm which part number your centrifuge is approved to run.
Frequently asked questions
What does this rotor hold?+
Twenty-four capillary positions, per the Ohaus designation for part 83041007. The capillary length and bore the rotor is cut for are not stated in the documentation we hold, so check your capillaries against the manufacturer's rotor specification before ordering consumables.
How does it differ from 30472304?+
Both are listed in this catalogue as 24 x capillaries hematocrit rotors with the V2 designation, under different Ohaus part numbers. We hold no documentation explaining the difference and will not invent one. Confirm which part number your centrifuge is approved to run and quote it in full on the purchase order.
What speed and time should a microhaematocrit spin use?+
Take both from your own validated method rather than from a product page. Packed cell volume is only comparable when the spin conditions are held constant, and the documentation we hold for this rotor states neither a recommended time nor a rated speed. Confirm the rotor's limit from the current Ohaus specification for 83041007.
Is a reading scale or retaining plate included?+
Not documented on this listing. The rotor is supplied under Ohaus part number 83041007; confirm the packing list against the manufacturer's specification if a retaining plate, lid or reading device is required.
Which centrifuges does it fit?+
Ohaus catalogues 83041007 within the Frontier 5000 rotor series. Confirm the part number against your centrifuge model's approved rotor list before ordering.
