AS24-2（19400069） A rotor's speed rating and tube capacity decide how a benchtop centrifuge fits into daily sample preparation. The AS24-2 lists both, plus the adapters needed for smaller tubes. The AS24-2 is identified by model number 19400069. Its stated maximum speed is 15,000 rpm, with a maximum relative centrifugal force of 21,380 × g. Those two figures describe the spinning envelope, not a guaranteed separation result for any particular sample. The rotor holds 24 positions. The listed capacities cover 2 mL, 1.5 mL, 0.2 mL and 0.5 mL tubes across those positions, so the same body accommodates different tube formats.

A02P2（19500001） Centrifuge throughput often depends less on the instrument than on the adapters inside it. The A02P2 is a 0.2 mL rotor adapter supplied in packs of 24 for use with A12-2P and AS24-2 rotors. In a busy lab, the limiting factor in a centrifuge run is usually the rotor's capacity to hold the tube format at hand. Adapters bridge the gap between a rotor's native wells and smaller tubes. The A02P2 is listed as a 0.2 mL rotor adapter, model 19500001, supplied 24 pieces per pack. That format is common in molecular biology workflows, where small reaction volumes are spun in strip tubes or plates.

A05P2（19500002） Rotor adapters rarely fail loudly, but their absence or mismatch stalls a run. The A05P2 is specified for 0.5 mL tubes and two named rotor models. In a busy laboratory, the binding constraint is often not the centrifuge itself but the seating hardware that lets smaller tubes run in it. The A05P2 is listed as a 0.5 mL rotor adapter, a consumable-class accessory rather than an instrument. The product data states it is used with A12-2P and AS24-2 rotors. That compatibility statement is the core specification: an adapter matched to a rotor and carried in packs of 24 pieces.
