- Easy to transport and suitable for various laboratory environments.
- Reaches up to 14,500 rpm for efficient sample processing.
- Features an ultra-quiet centrifugal motor with a noise level under 49 dBa.
- Offers up to 99 minutes or continuous centrifugation for extended runs.
- Minimizes heat generation during operation, protecting sensitive samples.
- Automatic lid opening reduces handling time and accelerates post-centrifugation processing.
With a particularly lightweight and transportable build, the Eppendorf 5453 Minispin Plus is the ideal microfuge for just about any laboratory
situation. The 5453 Minispin Plus boasts a maximum speed of 14,500 rpm and a
maximum RCF of 14,100 x g. The Eppendorf Minispin Plus is both tiny enough to fit in nearly any lab or personal workstation and light enough to easily be moved
from location to location. This microfuge also features an extremely quiet centrifugal motor, which offers a significant
decrease in run noise. Expect complete sample protection with excellent air flow to minimize heat while spinning and automatic open at end of run to reduce handling time.
Special Features for the Minispin Plus:
- Automatic RPM/RCF conversion
- Extended time to 99 min or continous centrifugation
All of our equipment is fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.

- Confirm the power supply output voltages match specified requirements for stable distribution to all internal components
- Measure and verify voltages at PCB test points to ensure accurate power delivery and circuit integrity
- Confirm rotor compatibility with the centrifuge model and check that rotor detection systems recognize the rotor type
- Inspect the exterior for any cosmetic or structural damage that could affect performance or safety
- Check the door mechanism alignment to ensure secure and smooth opening and closing
- Inspect and replace the gas strut with an OEM part to maintain proper door support and safety
- Examine the rotor chamber bowl for dents or damage and replace as needed to ensure safe operation
- Replace and confirm full functionality of all lid lock switches to maintain secure closure
- Inspect and lubricate the door lock mechanism, applying grease to the lid lock rail for smooth operation
- Test compressor functionality (if applicable) to ensure proper operation and consistent temperature control
- Conduct an 8-12 hour cycle test to validate consistent performance over prolonged use
- Confirm rotor motor stability, check for unusual noise, and assess mechanical integrity during operation
- Inspect the condensation drain and clear any clogs to prevent moisture buildup in the rotor chamber
- Verify RPM accuracy using an NIST-traceable tachometer and perform calibration as necessary
- Check the centrifuge error log to ensure zero recorded issues, confirming system reliability
