Product Description
Orbital Shaker 3mm Light Duty – Versatile, Compact, and Reliable
The Orbital Shaker Light Duty is available in three configurations to suit your lab’s specific needs: a 3 mm orbit for high-speed mixing, a 20 mm orbit for larger volume applications, and a dedicated microplate model. Designed for flexibility, all models are safe for use in incubators and cold rooms.
Engineered for precision and durability, each shaker features a maintenance-free brushless DC motor and a triple eccentric drive for smooth, stable motion—even during continuous use. Built-in overload and unbalance detection ensures your samples remain safe during operation.

Intuitive LCD Display
A bright backlit LCD screen clearly shows speed and time settings. The integrated timer supports both count-up and countdown modes, with an automatic stop function. A green operation indicator and easy-to-navigate user interface simplify setup and monitoring.
Simple, Flexible Operation
Adjust speed and time quickly using intuitive control knobs. Each shaker includes a durable tray with built-in mounting points for flask clamps, tube racks, and a non-slip rubber mat. A wide range of accessories is available, including a universal platform and over 20 flask and tube holders. The microplate model is tailored for high-throughput screening and plate-based assays.
RS232 Communication Interface
For enhanced functionality, the RS232 port allows two-way communication for data logging and remote control, integrating easily with your lab’s digital systems.
Robust Construction
Housed in a chemical-resistant polymer casing, the shaker features a rugged aluminum tray that’s easy to clean and built to last. With an IP21 protection rating, it’s designed to handle the rigors of daily lab use. The triple eccentric drive ensures dependable performance, while the ergonomic control knobs and clearly marked power switch improve user experience.
Smart, Space-Saving Design
Built to conserve valuable bench space, the orbital shaker 3mm also includes visual and audible alarms for end-of-cycle or error notifications. The onboard microprocessor control gradually ramps up speed to prevent spills and splashing, ensuring sample integrity. Optional platforms can be attached quickly and easily for added versatility.
