Description
Vortex 3 S003 is a compact orbital shaker fitted with a Swiss plug for short-term touch operation or continuous laboratory mixing. Circular motion, a 4 mm shaking stroke and a continuously adjustable speed range of 0–2500 rpm support efficient vortexing of tubes, microtiter plates and Erlenmeyer flasks up to 250 ml. Three attachments and seven inserts broaden application options and are ordered separately. Click fastening holds attachments securely in any position, while a special tension belt (VG 3.36) simplifies handling of round or Erlenmeyer flasks. The robust zinc die-cast housing, ball-bearing eccentric and self-ventilated motor permit continuous duty with low self-heating. Special silicone-based feet provide excellent vibration damping and a stable stand at high speeds. Compact design and solid construction from manufacturer IKA make this unit a practical choice for routine sample preparation, resuspension and mixing tasks in laboratories that require Swiss mains connection.
This article is part of Sieve shakers, in Test sieves & mills.

Questions about Vortex 3 S003, Orbital shaker with Swiss plug
What is this article?
Vortex 3 S003, Orbital shaker with Swiss plug is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Sieve shakers, inside Test sieves & mills, in Instruments de laboratoire.
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.
