Applications for Rocking Mixers
The variable speed control system enables effortless adjustment between gentle and vigorous agitation levels, providing optimal versatility for a comprehensive range of laboratory tasks. This precise speed control is particularly valuable for applications such as blot washing procedures, gel staining and de-staining protocols, and various hybridization techniques where different agitation intensities are required for optimal results.
Ratek RPM5 Digital Rocking Mixer Description:
The Ratek RPM5 Digital Rocking Mixer delivers exceptional versatility for various mixing and washing applications through its precise variable speed control and adjustable tilt action capabilities. The digital speed control system operates across a range of 4-57 RPM, managed through an intuitive front panel interface featuring a large LED display that shows both set and actual speeds for accurate monitoring. Advanced slow acceleration technology is integrated into the drive system to minimize spillage risk during startup, while the comprehensive timer function can be programmed from 0-99 in either minutes or hours to accommodate diverse protocol requirements. Three memory buttons provide convenient storage of frequently used time and speed combinations, enabling consistent reproducibility across repeated experiments.
Engineered for reliability and extended operation, the RPM5 features super-quiet solid-state mixer control with optical feedback, allowing for unattended operation during lengthy procedures without laboratory disruption.
