The updated manual explicitly lists only FA-45-18-11, F-45-30-11, and F-45-48-11 rotors. The 5424 uses a different spindle taper. Forcing a 5424 rotor will permanently damage the 5402’s motor shaft.
This analysis covers the model (5402) and the refrigerated variant (5402 R), though the manual largely treats them as mechanically identical regarding the drive train and safety housing. eppendorf 5402 manual updated
The manual mandates the use of specific rotors. Using non-certified rotors voids the safety certification. This analysis covers the model (5402) and the

The updated Eppendorf 5402 manual includes several new features and improvements:
: Use a damp, lint-free cloth with diluted neutral detergents or alcohol. Avoid caustic chemicals that can corrode the aluminum rotor. Condensation
