    Microplate Rotor The Microplate Rotor is designed for centrifugation of multi-well microplates. The weight of the loaded microplates must be equally distributed between the rotor’s two carriers. The maximum rated speed for the rotor when each of the carriers is loaded with 320 grams (total load of 640 grams) is 3650 rpm. CAUTION Loads greater than 320 grams (weight of the microplate and sample) must have maximum speed derated (according to the following table) to avoid rotor failure.
