Designed to hold multiple test tubes, test tube racks, vials or cylinders. Vortexing action is created by securing the top of the vessel in place while allowing the bottom to move freely in a defined orbit. Two stainless steel posts hold the support plate securely in place for quiet, rattle-free mixing. The support plate is easily adjustable by loosening knobs and moving the support plate up and down. The circular groove around the top of the taller post allows the support plate to be swung away from the tray for easy removal of samples. The suction cup feet dampen motion and prevent the unit from moving along the work bench. Made from stainless steel with corrosion resistant paint. Equipped with a powerful, permanent magnet motor with sealed ball bearings. Motor is rated for continuous duty.
