Simple Determination of Your Centrifugation Values
To ensure your centrifuge operates efficiently, it's important to set the correct RCF (Relative Centrifugal Force) or RPM (Revolutions Per Minute). You can rely on our calculator for accurate values, helping you achieve optimal results. Our user-friendly converter makes it easy to align parameters precisely with your centrifugation requirements.
RCF or RPM Calculation: This calculator enables users to efficiently determine either the Relative Centrifugal Force (RCF) or Rotational Speed (RPM). By entering the rotor radius along with either the RPM or RCF value, the corresponding measurement will be calculated quickly and accurately.
What do you want to calculate?
What do RCF and RPM mean?
RCF (Relative Centrifugal Force) represents the centrifugal force generated during centrifugation, expressed as a multiple of Earth's gravitational acceleration (g). It is commonly referred to as the centrifugal factor and is used to determine the actual force applied to samples.
RPM (Revolutions Per Minute) indicates the rotational speed of the centrifuge rotor. It represents the number of complete rotations performed by the rotor in one minute.
What Is the Rotor Radius?
The radius (r) is the distance between the rotor axis and the bottom of the centrifuge tube, measured in millimeters. You can find this information either in our radius look-up or in the operating instructions for your device.
The rotor radius is also known as the centrifuge radius, centrifuging radius or rotation radius and is essential for precise calculation of RCF or RPM.
Simple calculation for optimum results: our calculator effortlessly performs RCF and RPM calculations based on input of the rotor radius and the corresponding other value. Using the correct centrifugation parameters, you can be sure you will achieve precise results for your application.
Disclaimer: Please refer to the operating instructions for your device or the manufacturer's guidelines for precise measurements of the rotor radius and the exact operating instructions.
