    Abstract: A centrifuge, in particular as a laboratory centrifuge, has a centrifuge container in which a centrifuge rotor can be accommodated, a centrifuge motor for driving the centrifuge rotor, and a housing with a base and lateral side walls. The centrifuge container, the centrifuge rotor and the centrifuge motor are accommodated in the housing. A temperature control device for controlling the temperature of the centrifuge rotor has air directing means which are adapted to suck in air into the centrifuge container in a lower region. Such temperature control of the centrifuge operates more effectively than before. At the same time, the cooling of heat-emitting centrifuge components, such as the centrifuge motor and electronic components, takes place. The temperature control also functions if a safety container is arranged around the centrifuge container.
