Description
Vortex 2 S002 orbital shaker with UK plug is a versatile laboratory vortex mixer designed for both short-term touch operation and continuous running. The unit features a touch function and benefits from self-ventilation of the motor, enabling prolonged use with only low self-heating. Special silicone-based feet provide high vibration damping and ensure a secure stand even at elevated speeds. A wide, continuously adjustable speed range supports flexible mixing protocols. Three attachments and seven inserts accommodate tubes, microtiter plates, 250 ml Erlenmeyer flasks and similar vessels; these accessories are ordered separately. Attachments lock onto the device with a simple click fastening in any orientation, while a dedicated tension belt (VG 3.36) simplifies handling of round-bottom or Erlenmeyer flasks. The robust housing is manufactured from die-cast zinc. Offered by manufacturer IKA, this UK-plug version arrives as a single unit with a net weight of 4,482 kg and gross weight of 4,780 kg, suitable for everyday mixing tasks in research and routine laboratory settings.

Questions about Vortex 2 S002 , Orbital shaker with UK plug
What is this article?
Vortex 2 S002 , Orbital shaker with UK plug is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Sieve shakers, inside Test sieves & mills, in Lab instruments.
A sieve shaker repeats a throw so a particle-size test does not depend on who shook the stack. The amplitude, the timer and the frame diameter it accepts are the specification. A shaker for 200 mm frames does not hold a 300 mm stack.
A test sieve sorts particles by whether they pass an opening. Wire mesh and perforated plate are two ways of making that opening, and the nominal size is not a suggestion. A sieve shaker repeats the motion so the result does not depend on how hard someone shook by hand. A mill or grinder makes the particles smaller before they are sieved. The certificate of the sieve, and the opening size, are what an audit asks for. Measurement practice around mass and dimension sits with the BIPM, EURAMET and BELAC.
