An Eppendorf 5415R centrifuge brought back to life

Another piece of lab equipment saved from landfill. This week Charlie McNamara repaired an Eppendorf 5415R refrigerated centrifuge that had been written off as "non-functional". The fault ended up being a failed power supply, which left the unit completely dead. After a full teardown, repair and testing, it's now fully operational again and ready for reuse.
