Description
Reax top with small platform is a classic laboratory test-tube shaker and vortex mixer built around a 5 mm shaking orbit for straightforward mixing tasks. In short-time mode, shaking starts by pressure on the platform, which is useful for quick resuspension of solutions; continuous mode allows stubborn cell pellets to be loosened gently yet effectively. Product data specify a speed range from 0 min⁻¹ to 2,500 min⁻¹, supporting reliable distribution of solids and homogenisation of highly viscous media together with the 5 mm orbit. This Reax top unit from manufacturer Heidolph is configured for 50 Hz operation with an EU cable and a small platform, and is supplied as a single instrument. Net weight is 3,020 kg and gross weight 3,340 kg; packaging measures approximately 0,14 m height, 0,19 m width and 0,25 m depth with a volume of 0,007 m³. Origin is Germany (Bavaria). The instrument fits reagent-tube shaking and vortex applications in research and routine laboratories that need a compact top-drive mixer with defined orbit and speed control.

Questions about Reax top with small pick-up attachment -- 50Hz -- EU-plug
What is this article?
Reax top with small pick-up attachment -- 50Hz -- EU-plug is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Heidolph for laboratory use. It sits in Vortex mixers, inside Stirring, shaking & mixing, in Lab instruments.
A vortex mixer oscillates a cup so a tube pressed into it spins its contents into a vortex. It mixes a tube in seconds. It does not mix a flask, and it is not a substitute for a shaker when the method says thirty minutes.
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.
