Features of MaxQ 4000
The MaxQ 4000 benchtop, orbital shakers are durable and easy-to-use with a spacious 18” x 18” platform for higher vessel capacity.
With these benchtop shakers, you can accomplish cell culture, solubility studies, extraction procedures, protein expression and many other applications.
The MaxQ 4000 combines incubated/refrigerated temperatures with orbital shaking:
- Clearly view speed, time and temperature simultaneously on three separate displays.
- Spacious chamber holds six two-liter flasks
- Choose from a variety of temperature ranges; incubated (10°C above ambient to 60°C), high temperature (10°C above ambient to 80°C) or refrigerated (15°C below ambient to 60°C.)
- Triple eccentric drive handles heavy loads, uniform agitation and continuous 24-hour operation, even at high speeds.
- Monitor and control chamber temperature range with ±0.1°C accuracy at 37°C.
Dial it in using the analog operating system
- Variable speed from 40 to 400 rpm, controlled by a rotary dial monitored accurately by a traditional tachometer.
- Easy-to-read LED digital temperature display.
- Perform timed studies with timed operation from 1 to 60 minutes or operate shaker in continuous mode.
Easy-to-use controls with the digital operating system
- Variable speed control from 15 to 500 rpm.
- Continuous and timed operation from 0.1 hour up to 999 hours or 0.1 minute to 999 minutes.
- Shaker shutdown and audible/visual alarms signal if unit operates ±10% of set speed, preventing shaker from walking.
- User-adjustable speed calibration can be performed using a digital handheld tachometer, where verification is required and protocols can be standardized.
- Unbalanced load sensor stops platform motion when excess vibration is detected and visual/audible alarms signal until condition is corrected.
- Soft start feature eliminates sudden starts and stops, splashing of vessel contents or wetting of flask closure.
- Solid state DC brushless motor is maintenance free.
