Eppendorf M1248-0003 C76 High-Temperature Water Bath Orbital Shaker, 230/240V, 50/60 Hz, 21.4" W x 26.9" L x 18.5" H

The Eppendorf M1248 C76 benchtop digital water bath orbital shaker uses 120V at speeds between 50 and 300rpm, and has continuous or timed shaking, an orbital motion range of 1.3cm/0.5", a large LED display, and a one-piece seamless bath of heavy gauge stainless steel. This shaker has continuous or timed shaking between 0.1 to 99.9 hours for ease of operation. The orbital motion provides uniform mixing with a smooth continuous circular action. A proportional/integral (PI) microprocessor controller provides temperature control over a range of 7°C above ambient to 80°C. For lower temperatures, an optional water bath cooling coil can be connected to the unit (sold separately). A large, three-digit LED display precisely regulates temperature, speed, running time, and status. Applications for the water bath include hybridization and gel staining, the growth of shear-sensitive cells, and intense growth of bacterial cultures.Visual alarms alert to setpoint deviations, power failure, or end of study. Setpoints and operating status are retained in memory during power interruption, and the water bath automatically restarts after power is restored. Interchangeable front and rear baffles clip on and off for easy installation and removal, and protect laboratory equipment and personnel from over splashing. A platform that is either 31 x 42cm/12 x 16.5" or 30 x 20cm/12 x 8" (W x D) (sold separately) is required for operation. The water bath comes with a suspension arm kit, which allows installation of a platform in the bath. The kit includes a set of four each drive arms, knobs, lock washers and platform screws. Gable covers (sold separately) minimize heat loss and maintain culture sterility by allowing condensation from the bath to run down the sides of the cover, and not drip directly on the contents of the bath. An acrylic gable cover is recommended for bath temperatures below 60°C; a stainless steel cover is required for temperatures over 60°C. The unit has a heavy-duty counterbalanced drive for long life. An acceleration circuit prevents sudden starts and splashing. The unit measures 18.5 x 26.9 x 21.4 inches (H x W x D) and weighs 115lb. (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 during laboratory procedures. These devices can be analog or digital and are typically an automated, electrically powered, countertop unit that shakes liquid in lab containers, such as flasks, funnels, or test tubes. Some shakers can operate inside fume hoods, incubators, refrigerators, or other laboratory devices, and can include controls for the frequency and/or degree of movement. The types of shakers include: orbital, rocking, rolling, rotating, and wrist action. The most common orbital shaker provides a smooth, continuous, circular motion, sometimes with a tilt angle, for uniform mixing of contents. The rocking shaker creates gentle uniform mixing with a see-saw, or up and down, motion. Reciprocating, or rolling, shakers provide a horizontal side-to-side motion with simple agitation of samples. A rotating, or rotisserie, shaker provides samples with a rotating action that moves in a circular motion. Wrist-action shakers duplicate the effect of hand mixing with "arms" on each side of the unit. Some shakers have the ability to incubate or refrigerate samples while providing shaking action.Eppendorf manufactures instruments for cell manipulation and automated devices for liquid handling, for use in life science research laboratories. The company, found in 1945, is headquartered in Hamburg, Germany.
