Heating ThermoMixer Hettich MHR 23 with orbital shaking motion (2 interchangeable blocks)
with programmable control
Product information
Gentle Sample Mixing with Circular Shaking Motion
The Heated ThermoMixer is suitable for temperature-controlled incubation in molecular biology, biochemistry, and clinical diagnostics. Thanks to its circular shaking motion, samples in microtubes, sample vials, centrifuge tubes, cuvettes, PCR plates, as well as microtiter and deep-well plates are mixed gently and evenly. This makes the device ideal for research, pharmaceutical, and clinical laboratories that require reproducible heating and mixing processes.
The Smart Control controller offers 9 programs with 30 program steps each and programmable temperature curves. The temperature working range extends from room temperature +3°C to +130°C with an accuracy of +/-0.1°C. The shaking frequency is adjustable from 200 to 1,500 1/min, complemented by timer, short-mix, and interval functions with a snap effect. Two interchangeable blocks are included in the scope of delivery, with further options available from 30 variants.
The Heated ThermoMixer Hettich MHR 23 combines precise temperature control with flexible, gentle mixing for diverse laboratory applications. For more information on suitable systems, visit Cooling Technology and Cryotechnology. Get non-binding advice now and request suitable accessories!
Frequently Asked Questions About This Model
What is the Heated ThermoMixer MHR 23 used for?
It is used for temperature-controlled incubation and simultaneous mixing of samples, e.g., in DNA/RNA extraction, enzyme reactions, or PCR preparation, with a gentle, circular shaking motion.
Which temperature and shaking parameters are decisive?
The working range is from room temp. +3°C to +130°C with an accuracy of +/-0.1°C. The shaking frequency ranges from 200 to 1,500 1/min with a circular shaking stroke of 3 mm.
Which laboratories is this device suitable for?
Due to its programmable control and gentle circular shaking motion, it is suitable for research, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and clinical laboratories with various sample formats.
How does circular shaking differ from linear shaking motion?
The circular shaking motion of the MHR 23 produces a gentle, circular mixing action that is particularly suitable for sensitive samples, in contrast to the more intense linear motion of other models.
Which interchangeable blocks are available?
The device is supplied with 2 interchangeable blocks; a total of 30 different interchangeable blocks are available for microtubes, sample vials, centrifuge tubes, cuvettes, PCR, microtiter, and deep-well plates.
