Description
Ohaus part number 83041014 is a fixed-angle rotor taking four 8-place PCR strips, or 32 tube positions in total, and carries the V1 designation in the manufacturer’s part name. Ohaus lists it within the Frontier 5000 rotor series.
A strip rotor covers the short spin-down between thermal cycling and the next handling step, pulling condensate and wall droplets back to the bottom of each tube so the strip can be opened or read without loss. Runs are brief and the load is light, so the selection question is almost always strip fit and instrument approval rather than capacity.
This catalogue lists a second rotor in the same format, 30314841, carrying the ID designation instead of V1. We hold no documentation explaining the difference, and none stating a maximum speed, RCF, tube volume or which strip and cap profiles the rotor is cut for. Request the current Ohaus rotor specification for 83041014 and confirm which part number your centrifuge is approved to run.
Frequently asked questions
How many tubes does it hold?+
Four 8-place PCR strips, which is 32 tube positions in total. Tube volume is not stated in the documentation we hold for this part, so confirm it against the Ohaus rotor specification if your strips are non-standard.
What is the difference between 83041014 and 30314841?+
Both are listed in this catalogue as 4 x 8-place PCR strip fixed-angle rotors; 83041014 carries the V1 designation and 30314841 carries ID. We hold no manufacturer documentation explaining the distinction and will not invent one. Confirm with the Ohaus specification which part number your centrifuge is approved to run.
Will it accept any PCR strip?+
Not necessarily. Strip rotors are cut for a specific tube and cap profile, and domed, flat and optical caps differ in overall height. Check your strips against the manufacturer's rotor specification for 83041014 before standardising a consumable around the rotor.
Which centrifuges does it fit?+
Ohaus catalogues 83041014 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Not stated in the documentation we hold, and we do not publish unsourced rotor ratings.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 83041014; the rotor's rated limit governs regardless of how short the spin-down step is.
