JA-14.50 Fixed-Angle Rotor

Description

Description
Beckman Coulter JA-14.50 rotors are manufactured in a facility that maintains certifications to both
ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 13485:2003. They are for use with the specified Beckman Coulter centrifuges.
The JA-14.50 fixed-angle rotor is designed to hold up to sixteen 50-mL tubes at a 35-degree angle
(see Figure
centrifugal forces that can efficiently pellet cells, bacteria, and food products; separate proteins,
viruses, and subcellular fractions, and do phase separation and binding studies.
The JA-14.50 rotor with dual-locking lid was tested
aerosols under normal operating conditions of the associated Beckman Coulter centrifuge, when
used and maintained as instructed. The rotor is also available with a single-locking lid.

The JA-14.50 rotor has a patented fluid-containment annulus, located below the O-ring sealing
surface (see

* Validation of microbiological containment was done at an independent third-party testing facility. Improper use or
maintenance may affect seal integrity and thus containment.
