JA-14.50 Fixed-Angle Rotor
Description
Figure 2
Fluid-Containment Annulus
The rotor and lid are made of anodized aluminum. Two O-rings, one in the rotor lid made of Buna-N
rubber, and one in the rotor body made of ethylene propylene rubber, help to maintain atmospheric
pressure inside the rotor during centrifugation when they are properly lubricated. Pins in the rotor
drive hole mate with the centrifuge drive hub to prevent the rotor from slipping during acceleration
and deceleration.
JA-14.50 rotors manufactured after October 2016 have a slightly tapered cell profile, which improves
performance of most commercially available 50 mL conical tubes. However, some tubes and
adapters that were compatible prior to October 2016 are no longer compatible. Please consult Tables
1-4 for compatible tubes and adapters.
NOTE
JA14.50 rotors and lids manufactured after October 2016 include the letter “T” after the serial number
