$2,718.00
In stockOhaus part 83041512: a four-place swing-out (swinging bucket) rotor taking 1000 mL vessels, in the ID sealable configuration, from the Ohaus Frontier 5000 rotor series. Swing-out geometry pellets flat against the tube bottom rather than the wall. Maximum speed and RCF depend on the rotor and centrifuge pairing and are not quoted here.

Description
Ohaus 83041512 is a swing-out rotor with four 1000 mL positions, from the Ohaus Frontier 5000 rotor series, in the configuration Ohaus designates ID Sealable. In a swing-out rotor the buckets pivot to horizontal under rotation, so the pellet forms flat against the bottom of the vessel rather than up the wall as it does in a fixed-angle rotor — the usual reason for choosing this geometry for large-volume clarification and gradient work.
What is on this listing
- Ohaus part number: 83041512
- Rotor type: swing out (swinging bucket)
- Capacity: 4 × 1000 mL
- Series: Ohaus Frontier 5000 rotor series
- Designation: ID Sealable
Rotor speed and relative centrifugal field are a property of the rotor and centrifuge pairing, not of the rotor alone, and Ohaus publishes them per combination. We do not hold a specification sheet for this part, so no maximum speed or RCF is quoted on this listing. Confirm the rating for your specific Frontier 5000 centrifuge against Ohaus documentation, and against the rotor’s own data plate, before running a cycle.
Bucket and adapter requirements for the 1000 mL positions are defined by Ohaus for this part number. Check what is supplied with 83041512 against their current parts list before ordering, particularly if you intend to run smaller vessels in adapters.
Frequently asked questions
What is the rotor capacity?+
Four positions of 1000 mL, in a swing-out (swinging bucket) configuration.
Why choose a swing-out rotor over a fixed-angle rotor?+
The buckets swing to horizontal under rotation, so the pellet forms flat against the bottom of the vessel instead of against the side wall. That makes the supernatant easier to decant cleanly and is the usual requirement for density-gradient separations. Fixed-angle rotors generally reach higher speeds and are more compact for the same tube count.
Which centrifuges does it fit?+
It is part of the Ohaus Frontier 5000 rotor series. Fit is model-specific within that series — a 4 × 1000 mL swing-out rotor in particular needs a chamber sized for it — so check 83041512 against the rotor compatibility list for your Frontier 5000 centrifuge before ordering.
What is the maximum speed and RCF?+
Not stated on this listing. Those figures are set by the rotor and centrifuge combination and we do not hold a specification sheet for 83041512. Take them from Ohaus documentation for your centrifuge and from the rotor data plate.
Are buckets and adapters included?+
The component set shipped with 83041512 is defined by Ohaus and is not itemised on this listing. Verify it against their current parts list, especially if you plan to run vessels smaller than 1000 mL using adapters.
