Description
Designed for simultaneous heating and mixing of small samples, the VorTemp 56™ is supplied with interchangeable platforms for
microtubes (56 x 1.5 mL tubes, or smaller tubes with adapters) or microplates (accepts standard and deepwell plates, up to 2.0 mL).
Temperature and shaking speed are adjustable over a broad range, making the VorTemp 56™ useful for a variety of applications, including bacterial cultures. Mechanical convection provides a uniform and stable environment. The shaker in the VorTemp 56™ may be turned off, allowing the unit to be used as a static incubator.
A microprocessor controls all parameters including temperature and timed operation. Self diagnostic software continuously monitors the unit for proper temperature and shaking speed, alerting the user to any errors. Heating and shaking are controlled by feedback loops which precisely maintain chosen parameters, independent of load or voltage fluctuations. The sturdy construction of the VorTemp 56™ provides stability during high speed shaking. The chamber is fully insulated to maintain uniform temperature and to reduce operating noise.
