Low-noise rotor chamber for a centrifuge

The present invention relates to a rotor chamber for a centrifuge, in particular an air-cooled laboratory centrifuge, having a chamber wall, comprising an inner side facing toward the chamber interior, the chamber interior being implemented to receive a centrifuge rotor, and an outer side facing away from the chamber interior, and having a sound barrier which is implemented to reduce the sound emitted from the rotor chamber, which comprises a multilayer damping lining. The first layer comprises a material having essentially sound-absorbing properties relative to the second laver, and the second layer comprises a material having essentially sound-reflecting properties relative to the first layer. The present invention also relates to a centrifuge having such a rotor chamber, and methods for reducing the sound emanating from the rotor chamber of a centrifuge, in particular an air-cooled laboratory centrifuge.
