RCF → RPM Calculator (harvesting yeast)
Convert a target relative centrifugal force (×g) into the rotor speed (RPM) you must dial in for harvesting yeast, from your rotor radius.
- 1Rearrange RCF = 1.118×10⁻⁵·r·RPM²
RPM = √(RCF / (1.118×10⁻⁵·r)) - 2Solve
RPM = 3663

About RCF → RPM Calculator (harvesting yeast)
Convert a target relative centrifugal force (×g) into the rotor speed (RPM) you must dial in for harvesting yeast, from your rotor radius. The calculation uses RPM = √(RCF / (1.118×10⁻⁵·r)). The stakes: Protocols specify relative centrifugal force (×g), but instruments are set in RPM. Because RCF depends on the square of speed and on rotor radius, the same RPM gives very different g-force on different rotors — get it wrong and you over-pellet, shear, or fail to sediment. harvesting yeast: protocols usually specify ~1500 ×g. Watch out for: forgetting radius is in cm in the formula; not balancing tubes; copying an RPM from a protocol written for a different rotor. Because the calculation happens entirely client-side, you can use it offline and with confidential data, then cite the stable URL in your methods or teaching notes.

Frequently asked questions
Any tips specific to this calculation?+
harvesting yeast: protocols usually specify ~1500 ×g. Also watch out for: forgetting radius is in cm in the formula and using rmin instead of rmax.
Is this rcf → rpm calculator (harvesting yeast) free to use?+
Yes. It is completely free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser — there are no usage limits.
What formula does it use?+
It uses RPM = √(RCF / (1.118×10⁻⁵·r)) The full worked example is shown beneath the result so you can verify each step.
What are the most common mistakes here?+
In centrifugation, watch for: copying an RPM from a protocol written for a different rotor; using rmin instead of rmax; forgetting radius is in cm in the formula; not balancing tubes. This tool shows the working so you can catch these before they cost an experiment.
Does my data leave my device?+
No. All computation happens locally in your browser. Nothing you enter — sequences, concentrations or measurements — is uploaded to any server, so it is safe for confidential work.
Can I cite this tool?+
Yes — use the “Cite this tool” snippet on the page. Many users link these calculators from methods sections, lab SOPs and teaching materials.
