Reliable Mixing PerformanceThe VDRL Shaker Rotator is engineered to provide consistent orbital mixing, ensuring homogeneous solutions in every batch. The variable speed range supports gentle to vigorous agitation, suitable for diverse sample requirements. Whether working with flasks, slides, or other containers, the shakers adjustable spring holders securely accommodate various labware sizes for optimal results.
Built for Laboratory DemandsManufactured from durable, powder-coated mild steel, this shaker resists corrosion and standard laboratory wear. Its robust construction, along with safety features like fused protection and overload cutoff, guarantees reliable performance even in high-throughput environments. The low operating noise (<55 dB(A)) enables a quieter workspace.
Convenient Operation and SafetyFeaturing a mechanical timer and continuous operation mode, the shaker adapts to different experimental needs. Anti-vibration feet increase stability during operation, while the overload cutoff and fused circuitry enhance safety. The absence of a heating element and temperature resistance makes it ideal for ambient laboratory conditions.
FAQs of VDRL Shaker Rotator rotary shaker:
Q: How do I operate the VDRL Shaker Rotator for laboratory mixing applications?
A: To operate the VDRL Shaker Rotator, load your samples onto the platform using the adjustable spring holders. Select the desired speed with the analog scale knob, set the timer for up to 60 minutes or choose continuous operation, and activate the shaker. Always ensure the maximum load does not exceed 3 kg.
Q: What types of samples or containers can the shaker accommodate?
A: The platform holds up to 16 slides or compatible racks. Its adjustable spring holders are suitable for various flask sizes, making the unit versatile for serological, hematological, and general clinical laboratory mixing tasks.
Q: When should I use the timer versus the continuous operation mode?
A: Use the 060 minute mechanical timer for timed experiments or protocols requiring precise agitation durations. Select continuous operation for ongoing mixing processes or when longer durations are needed beyond the timer range.
Q: Where in the laboratory is the VDRL Shaker Rotator best utilized?
A: This shaker is ideal for use in serological, hematological, or general clinical laboratories where sample mixing, reagent preparation, or slide agitation are required. Its compact footprint fits standard benchtops.
Q: What safety features does the VDRL Shaker Rotator offer during use?
A: The unit includes fused electrical protection and an overload cutoff to safeguard both the instrument and operator. Anti-vibration feet ensure stability throughout operation for added safety.
Q: How does the variable speed control benefit my lab processes?
A: Its variable speed analog control allows precise adjustment between 50220 RPM, with 2 RPM accuracy, accommodating delicate or rigorous mixing tasks, and ensuring reproducible results for a variety of experimental needs.
