Multi-purpose Shaker

Introduction

Multipurpose shaker is a versatile laboratory device designed for various shaking and mixing applications. It typically features an adjustable platform that can accommodate a wide range of sample containers, including flasks, tubes, and microplates. Multipurpose shakers can provide orbital, reciprocating, or even both types of motion, making them suitable for diverse tasks such as cell culture, staining, extraction, and incubation. Their flexibility, precise speed and time control, and adaptability to different experimental needs make multipurpose shakers invaluable for a broad spectrum of research, including molecular biology, microbiology, and chemistry, where consistent and reliable sample processing is crucial for achieving accurate results.

FAQ

What are the main applications of the Multi-purpose Shaker?

The Multi-purpose Shaker is used to mix, agitate, blend or aerate samples and media. It supports sample preparation, culturing, extraction and quality control in biology, chemistry, food, pharmaceutical and clinical laboratories.

Which standards and regulations apply to the Multi-purpose Shaker?

The unit is designed with reference to IEC 61010 electrical safety and relevant GB/T standards for laboratory mixing equipment. Procedures should follow the applicable methods. Compliance documentation can be provided on request.

How long is the warranty period?

The complete unit carries a 12-month warranty from delivery, covering the main body, core components and controller against manufacturing defects. Consumables and wearing parts such as filters, seals and probes are not covered. Damage from misuse, improper power or unauthorised repair is excluded, and extended warranty can be quoted.

Is the Multi-purpose Shaker difficult to operate?

The controls are designed for regular laboratory use, so most users become confident after a brief introduction. The manual walks through each step, and common settings can be saved for repeat work. Online or on-site training is available if the site requires it.

What is the typical lead time for order delivery?

Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.

How often should the Multi-purpose Shaker be calibrated?

The unit is calibrated and tested before delivery. For ongoing accuracy, verify it against traceable reference standards every 6 to 12 months, or according to the laboratory quality schedule. We can arrange calibration service and certificates where required.

Are consumables and spare parts easy to obtain?

Common consumables and standard spare parts are available through our service channel and are not locked to proprietary formats. Quote the model and serial number when ordering so the correct items are supplied. Lead time for standard parts is usually short.

Can it be adapted to our requirements?

Yes, common options include different ranges, voltages, accessories, interfaces and capacity or size configurations. We confirm feasibility, specifications and any delivery impact before order confirmation. Custom requirements are reviewed case by case.

How is the Multi-purpose Shaker commissioned?

Standard installation is straightforward and supported by the manual and start-up documentation. Our technical team can guide staff remotely through checks and validation. On-site commissioning is available as a quoted service.

What should be avoided when using the Multi-purpose Shaker?

Do not exceed the rated load or speed, run unbalanced or unsecured vessels, or use incompatible media. Secure containers and use slow start. Follow laboratory safety rules.
