The ShakeCore O 180 C compact orbital shaker must be operated within 5-40°C and 80% relative humidity. The maximum load including fixture must not exceed 2 kg.
- Load Limit: The maximum load including fixture is 2 kg.
- Environmental Limits: Permissible ambient temperature is 5-40°C and relative humidity is 80%.
- Electrical Specifications: The device operates at 100-240V, 50/60Hz, 20W, with protection class IP21.
What is the maximum load capacity of the ShakeCore O 180 C, and does that include the fixture?
The maximum load capacity including fixture is 2 kg. This means the combined weight of the vessel, media, and any clamping fixture must stay within 2 kg. The specified speed range of 40–200 rpm and 20 mm amplitude apply to this compact orbital shaker configuration.
Can the ShakeCore O 180 C be connected to external controllers or monitoring equipment?
Yes, the ShakeCore O 180 C includes an RS232 interface for external serial connectivity. It also comes with a remote controller with a 4.3-inch LCD screen, while the main unit display is LED. Use the RS232 connection for integration with external control or monitoring systems according to your laboratory configuration.
What ambient and installation conditions are required for the ShakeCore O 180 C?
The permissible ambient temperature is 5–40 °C with 80% RH. The unit is rated IP21, indicating limited protection against solid objects and vertically dripping water. It operates on 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz with 20 W power consumption, and the main unit measures 294 × 348 × 130 mm and weighs 3.4 kg.
The ShakeCore O 180 C Compact Orbital Shaker delivers a 20 mm orbital amplitude with brushless DC motor drive for low-maintenance, reproducible mixing up to 200 rpm, but its 2 kg maximum load and IP21 protection class impose clear limits on sample mass and spill tolerance in wet-lab environments.
Positive
- Brushless DC motor drive: The 16 W brushless DC motor provides quiet, maintenance-free operation with consistent torque delivery across the full 40-200 rpm speed range, suitable for continuous or timer-based shaking protocols.
- Remote LCD controller with RS232: The detachable 4.3-inch LCD remote controller enables safe shaker operation outside the immediate splash zone, and the RS232 interface supports external data logging or automated protocol control for reproducible experiments.
Trade-offs
- Limited maximum load of 2 kg: With a maximum load including fixture of only 2 kg, the unit is restricted to low-mass vessels such as microcentrifuge tubes, small Erlenmeyer flasks, or microplates; heavier glassware or multi-stack setups will exceed the rated payload.
- IP21 protection class restricts environment: IP21 rating provides protection only against solid objects >12.5 mm and vertical dripping water, meaning the shaker should be kept away from direct liquid spills, condensation, or humid environments exceeding 80% RH at 40 °C.
