The Heidolph Polymax 2040 waving platform shaker has a speed range of 2.5 to 50 rpm; a platform with a rubber nonslip mat that holds culture plates, media bottles, and Erlenmeyer flasks with a total weight of 10kg; a digital control knob for setting speed and an analog control knob for timed operation up to 120 minutes; and a platform tilt angle of 5 degrees for gentle three-dimensional (gyrating) agitation. When the set time has elapsed, an alarm sounds and the platform stops moving, or the unit can be set for continuous operation. Adding the Heidolph heating module and a hood (sold separately) provides variable temperature control up to 65 degrees C. This shaker is used in a variety of laboratory procedures, including cell culture, hematology, and chemical mixing.This laboratory shaker has self-resetting overheating protection and an allowable ambient temperature range of 0 to 50 degrees C at 80% relative humidity. It is Ingress Protection certified IP20.SpecificationsSpeed range2.5 to 50 revolutions per minute (rpm)Tilt angle5 degreesCapacity10kgTimed operation1 to 120 minutes or continuousAllowable temperature range0 to 50 degrees C at 80% relative humidityPower230/240V 50/60Hz, 25WWeight16kgPlatform dimensions39.0 x 34.0cmOverall dimensions20.8 x 42.6 x 43.5cm (H x W x D)H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back.Laboratory shakers agitate liquids for biological and chemical procedures by repetitively moving the vessels holding the liquids. The types of vessels include glass or plastic bottles, flasks, tubes, and microplates. Shakers are categorized by the type of movement used, which can be orbital (circular), reciprocating, vibrating, rocking, waving (gyrating), rotating (rotisserie), or wrist-action. Typically a shaker will have analog or digital controls for setting the speed and sometimes also the degree of movement. Some shakers have the ability to incubate or refrigerate samples during shaking. Shakers are used in a variety of laboratory procedures, including hemolysis, preparation of emulsions and suspensions, staining, and cell cultivation.Heidolph Instruments manufactures laboratory equipment such as evaporators, peristaltic pumps, and hot plate stirrers. The company, founded in 1938, is headquartered in Schwabach, Germany.What's in the Box?Polymax 2040 waving shakerNonslip rubber matPower cordInstructions
