Overview
The refrigerated Eppendorf Centrifuge 5418 R with its 18-place capacity rotor is specifically designed for low to medium capacity in 1.5/2.0 mL tubes and Microtainer®. Its speed of up to 16,873 × g allows for standard molecular biology applications. Moreover, this compact device has an especially low access height and is characterized by a remarkably quiet operation.
Features:
- Max. rotor capacity: 18 × 1.5/2.0 mL vessels
- Max. speed: 16,873 × g (14,000 rpm) for quick separation
- Small footprint and low access height of 23 cm
- OptiBowl® design for quiet operation – even without a rotor lid
- Eppendorf QuickLock® rotor allows for fast and ergonomic lid locking
- Soft-touch one-finger lid closure for ergonomic operation
Features for refrigerated version:
- Temperature range from 0 °C to +40 °C
- Guaranteed temperature of 4 °C at maximum rotational speed
- FastTemp™ function for quick pre-cooling and maximum temperature accuracy inside the rotor
- ECO power shut-off engages after 8 hours of nonuse to reduce energy consumption (46 % over night) and extend compressor life (can be deactivated)
- The patented compressor technology reduces vibrations and protects your samples
- Built-in condensation drain to eliminate water accumulation in the rotor chamber

I am looking for the non-refrigerated Eppendorf 5418 centrifuge. Is that model still available?
No, Eppendorf discontinued that model in early 2020. The recommended replacement is the 5420 centrifuge.
