Introduction
A reciprocal shaker is a laboratory shaker that provides the reciprocating shaking motion, used for the mixing and the agitation of the samples, and it is used in the biology, the chemistry, the microbiology, the research, and the many other laboratories. The reciprocal shaker consists of a shaking platform with the holders or the clamps, a motor with the mechanism, which provides the back-and-forth linear motion, a speed control, and the housing, and it shakes the samples in the linear back-and-forth motion, with the speed adjustable; the reciprocal shaker is used for the mixing of the solutions, for the extraction, for the cultivation of the cultures, for the staining, for the washing, and for many other applications, and it is available in various sizes and configurations; the reciprocal shaker is an essential instrument for the mixing and the agitation. Reciprocal shakers are used in the biology laboratories, in the chemistry laboratories, in the microbiology laboratories, in the research, and for many other applications. With their reciprocating motion, reciprocal shakers are essential for the efficient mixing.

FAQ
Q1: What testing scenarios is this shaker mainly applied to?
A: The reciprocal shaker is used in chemical analysis, environmental testing, food and beverage, clinical diagnostics, industrial processing, pharmaceuticals and research to provide back-and-forth linear (reciprocating) agitation of samples in flasks, bottles and separatory funnels for vigorous mixing, extraction, dissolution and sample preparation. It supports chemical extraction and mixing, environmental sample extraction (soil, water), food and beverage sample preparation, clinical sample mixing, pharmaceutical dissolution testing (some configurations), industrial process mixing, and general laboratory vigorous agitation. The linear reciprocating motion provides more vigorous agitation than orbital shakers, making it suitable for extraction and dissolution applications requiring stronger mixing action.
Q2: What standards does this shaker comply with?
A: The reciprocal shaker complies with relevant IEC 61010 laboratory electrical safety standards, IEC 61326 for electromagnetic compatibility, and applicable GB/T standards for laboratory equipment. The instrument follows applicable noise standards. For dissolution testing, follow USP/EP apparatus requirements if applicable. Users should verify compliance with specific facility requirements.
Q3: What is the warranty period for the whole shaker and key components?
A: The whole reciprocal shaker is covered by a 12-month warranty. The motor, shaking mechanism, controller, platform and housing are covered, while clamps, flasks and fuses are accessories or consumables. Damage from improper use, overloading or unauthorized repair is excluded. Extended service contracts may be available.
Q4: Is this device difficult to operate? Is professional training required?
A: Operation requires basic training in shaker use, sample loading and safety. We provide an operation manual and remote guidance. Proper flask clamping, balancing, speed setting, timer use and safety procedures are important for safe, effective operation, especially with vigorous agitation.
Q5: What is the typical lead-time for order delivery?
A: 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.
Q6: Is regular calibration required? What is the recommended calibration cycle?
A: Speed calibration recommended every 6-12 months for critical applications. Timer accuracy verified periodically. Motor and mechanism checked per schedule. Routine cleaning of platform and clamps. Full system performance check annually. Clamps and hardware inspected for wear.
Q7: Are supporting consumables universal?
A: Clamps, flasks, non-slip mats and fuses are available from laboratory suppliers, though compatibility should be verified. Long-term consumable cost is very low for a reciprocal shaker.
Q8: Can I customize parameters or supporting accessories?
A: Customization includes platform size, speed range, stroke length, timer, water bath capability (shaking water bath), clamps, explosion-proof capability and accessories. Additional clamps, platforms and accessories can be ordered separately. Custom orders extend delivery lead-time.
Q9: Does the purchase include on-site installation and commissioning service?
A: No complex installation is required. The package includes the reciprocal shaker and instruction manual. On-site service is not included for this type of laboratory equipment.
Q10: What types of samples are compatible with this equipment?
A: The reciprocal shaker agitates samples in flasks, bottles, separatory funnels, beakers and other containers within the platform size, speed range, stroke and load specification. Different containers require specific clamps or holders. Very large or heavy loads may require specific platforms. Users should secure containers properly with clamps, balance loads on the platform, set appropriate speed and time for the application, avoid overloading, use appropriate containers (capped/sealed for volatile or hazardous samples), and follow proper safety procedures for chemical and biological samples. The shaker should be placed on a stable, level surface, preferably secured to the bench for vigorous shaking. For extraction applications, use separatory funnels or appropriate extraction vessels. The platform should be cleaned regularly, especially after chemical spills. The shaking mechanism should be maintained per manufacturer schedule. The shaker should not be operated with unbalanced loads that could cause excessive vibration or movement. For volatile or hazardous samples, ensure containers are properly sealed and use in a fume hood if required. For water bath models, maintain proper water level and temperature. Clamps should be inspected regularly for wear and replaced as needed.
