Combine incubated and refrigerated temperatures with a small footprint by using Thermo Scientific™ MaxQ™ 4450 Benchtop Orbital Shakers. These versatile shakers are ideal for incubating a small number of vessels and are used for cell culture, solubility studies, extraction procedures, protein expression and many other applications.

Key Features:

Clear, scratch-resistant lid allows unobstructed sample viewing without disturbing chamber temperature
Chamber holds four 1L flasks
Choose from two temperature ranges: incubated (5°C above ambient to 80°C) or with a cooling coil option that requires a chiller (5°C below ambient to 80°C)
Monitor and control chamber temperature range with ±0.1°C accuracy at 37°C
Triple eccentric drive handles heavy loads, uniform agitation and continuous 24-hour operation, even at high speeds
Overtemperature safety feature with independent thermostat provides additional backup by controlling heat if main temperature controller fails
Interlock stops platform when lid is opened

Analog Models:

Speed is controlled by a rotary dial, monitored accurately by a traditional tachometer
Easy-to-read LED digital temperature display
Speed: 40-400rpm Integrated tachometer monitors and displays speed in rpm to guarantee an accurate setting
Timed: 1 to 60 min. or continuous

Digital Models:

Three individual LED displays: speed, time and temperature
Variable speed control from 15 to 500rpm
Continuous and timed operation from 0.1 hour up to 999 hours or 0.1 to 999 min.
Shaker shutdown and audible/visual alarms signal temperature deviations or if unit operates ±10% of set speed, preventing shaker from walking
Soft-start feature eliminates sudden starts and stops, splashing of vessel contents or wetting of flask closure
Set point retention retains parameters during power failure and restarts unit automatically after power is restored
Solid-state DC brushless motor is maintenance-free

Operating Chiller:

Provides a refrigerated atmosphere
For plasmid purification and protein expression in bacteria for use with MaxQ 4450 with cooling coil option
Achieve temperature ranges from 20° to 30°C
