Description
Disc mixer RS-RD 5 is an analogue laboratory disc mixer designed for routine sample preparation with tubes of common working volumes. The unit supports controlled disc-style mixing of liquid samples held in 2 ml, 15 ml and 50 ml tubes, making it suitable for gentle resuspension, blending of reagents and everyday homogenisation tasks at the bench. Accessories for 2 ml, 15 ml and 50 ml tubes are included, so the instrument can be put into service quickly across typical molecular biology, biochemistry and general laboratory workflows without separate tube holders for these formats. Compact and straightforward to operate, the analogue control layout allows operators to set mixing intensity according to sample type and protocol needs. Supplied as a single-piece laboratory unit from manufacturer Phoenix Instrument, the RS-RD 5 fits well into shared instrument areas, teaching labs and research groups that require reliable tube mixing with minimal setup. Its focus on standard tube formats supports consistent handling of multiple sample sizes during parallel preparations, buffer work and pre-analytical steps where reproducible disc mixing is preferred over manual shaking.

Questions about Disk-mixer RS-RD 5
What is this article?
Disk-mixer RS-RD 5 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Phoenix Instrument for laboratory use. It sits in Stirring & mixing accessories, inside Stirring, shaking & mixing, in Lab instruments.
Stirring accessories are the bosses, the retort clamps and the spare knobs that hold an overhead stirrer over the vessel. The stand has to carry the motor's mass, not only the flask's.
Stirring keeps a mixture uniform or helps a solid dissolve. A magnetic stirrer spins a bar inside a closed vessel. An overhead stirrer drives a shaft when the liquid is viscous or the volume is large. A vortex mixer agitates a tube. A shaker moves a whole rack or a plate. The shape of the impeller and the speed decide whether the liquid turns over or merely spins. The vessels being stirred are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
