Orbi-Shaker CO2 for Microplates

Benchmark Orbi-Shaker™ CO2 All Environment Shaker

The Orbi-Shaker™ CO2-MP is a versatile and reliable shaker specifically designed for thorough mixing of microplates in extreme environments, such as CO2 incubators and other controlled conditions. It is built to withstand temperature ranges from 0°C to 65°C and humidity levels up to 100%, making it ideal for cell culture and other sensitive biological applications.

This compact, yet highly effective, shaker features a 3mm orbital motion for gentle yet efficient mixing of well plates, whether you're handling standard or deep well microplates. The Orbi-Shaker™ CO2-MP is a perfect fit for labs that require reliable shaking under extreme conditions without compromising sample integrity.

Key Features:

1. Extreme Environment Capability: Specifically designed for use in CO2 incubators, this model can withstand the high humidity and temperature variations present in such environments, ensuring your samples are safely shaken even in extreme conditions.

2. 3mm Orbital Motion: The 3mm shaking orbit ensures thorough mixing of microplates, making it perfect for applications such as cell culture, PCR, or other assays requiring uniform distribution of reagents or cells.

3. Digital Speed and Time Control: With digital control, users can set both speed (from 200 to 1200 rpm) and time with precision. The 1 rpm increment setting provides highly accurate mixing speeds for delicate samples.

4. Remote Control: The remote control module allows users to adjust settings without having to open the incubator door, preventing any potential contamination or deviation from protocol. The controller can be mounted magnetically to the incubator for easy access.

5. 6 Position Microplate Platform: The included 6-position microplate platform securely holds up to 6 microplates, and is designed to accommodate both standard and deep-well plates, ensuring maximum flexibility for your applications.

6. Compact and Durable: Despite its advanced features, the Orbi-Shaker™ CO2-MP has a compact footprint, making it easy to fit into a variety of incubators or workspace environments without sacrificing performance.
