Versatile and Robust Laboratory ShakerThe Heavy Duty Orbital Shaker is engineered for demanding lab environments, providing smooth, vibration-free orbital motion and accommodating a wide range of flask sizes and volumes. Its rugged stainless steel platform and powder-coated mild steel body offer durability and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for a variety of laboratory applications where consistent mixing is essential.
Precise Control and Easy OperationEquipped with a variable speed control knob, the orbital shaker enables users to set speeds from 40 to 250 RPM with 2 RPM accuracy. Users can easily select between a timer mode (up to 120 minutes) or continuous operation, ensuring flexibility for different mixing requirements. The platform is fitted with reliable clamps, securing flasks and containers during use.
Exceptional Safety and Low Noise PerformanceThis shaker features built-in overload and overcurrent protection for enhanced safety during extended operation. The brushless motor ensures minimal maintenance and quiet operation, keeping noise levels below 60 dB for a conducive lab environment. Its temperature resistance of up to 50C further supports reliability during prolonged laboratory protocols.
FAQ's of Orbital Shaker- Heavy Duty:
Q: How does the orbital shaker operate and what is the maximum load it can handle?
A: The orbital shaker uses a continuous-duty, brushless motor to generate smooth orbital motion, making it suitable for mixing, agitation, and aeration tasks. Its robust design allows it to handle up to 15 kilograms of mixed weight, supporting multiple flasks or containers up to 25 liters in total volume.
Q: What are the primary safety features included in this orbital shaker?
A: The orbital shaker is equipped with overload and overcurrent protection mechanisms, which automatically prevent damage or hazards if excess load or current is detected. This ensures safe and reliable operation, even during extended periods of use.
Q: When should I use the timer function versus the continuous run mode?
A: Use the timer function, adjustable from 0 to 120 minutes, for time-specific mixing protocols or experiments requiring precise durations. Select the continuous run mode for experiments that need prolonged, uninterrupted operation, such as overnight mixing or large-volume aeration.
Q: Where is this orbital shaker typically used and what applications is it suitable for?
A: This shaker is commonly used in laboratories for applications including mixing, aeration, and agitation of liquid cultures, samples, or reagents. It is suited for research facilities, academic labs, industrial QC labs, and biotech or pharmaceutical settings.
Q: What sizes and types of flasks can the platform accommodate?
A: The 450 x 450 mm stainless steel platform can securely hold up to 36 x 100 ml or 16 x 250 ml flasks using the provided clamps. It is also compatible with various container types, accommodating a total capacity of up to 25 liters.
Q: How does the shaker minimize vibrations and noise during operation?
A: The shaker integrates a heavy-duty drive system and high-quality construction to provide stable, vibration-free operation. Its brushless motor runs quietly, with overall noise levels kept below 60 dB, making it ideal for noise-sensitive lab environments.
Q: What are the benefits of choosing this heavy-duty orbital shaker for laboratory mixing tasks?
A: This orbital shaker offers flexible speed control, high load capacity, robust safety features, and durable construction, making it highly reliable for a wide range of laboratory processes. Its quiet operation, secure flask holding, and user-friendly controls contribute to greater efficiency and safety for laboratory staff.
