Product information

Field of Application and Use in the Laboratory

This shaking incubator is the ideal solution for research laboratories and biotechnology applications requiring a reliable incubator shaker for cell cultures. Thanks to its compact design, the unit can be flexibly placed on or under the lab bench. Programming of day and night cycles as well as temperature changes is carried out intuitively via a membrane keypad, which significantly simplifies daily work in microbiology.

Technically, the system impresses with a shaking stroke of 50 mm and a magnetic drive enabling speeds from 20 to 400 rpm. The temperature range covers 5 °C above RT up to 60 °C. A particular highlight is the stackability of up to two units, maximizing capacity within a small footprint, while safety features such as over-temperature cut-off protect the process.

This stackable incubator shaker combines high running smoothness with flexible configuration options for efficient workflows. Discover further solutions in the refrigeration technology section or request your quote now.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Model

Which flask sizes can be used in the incubator?

Capacity per tier ranges from 69 x 50 ml Erlenmeyer flasks up to 2 x 5000 ml flasks. Intermediate sizes such as 25 x 250 ml or 6 x 2000 ml are also possible.

Is the unit suitable for continuous operation?

Yes, the magnetic drive ensures high running smoothness. In addition, following a power interruption, the machine automatically returns all parameters to the specified setpoints.

What is the footprint of the shaker?

The unit has external dimensions of 80 x 67 x 73 cm (WxDxH) and uses trays measuring 475 x 420 mm.


Technical data & description

Simple operation and low vibration levels are essential prerequisites for comfortable laboratory work. Parameters can be programmed and timer functions such as day-night cycles and temperature changes can be configured via a membrane keypad. Despite its relatively compact footprint, the MINITRON is equipped for virtually all conceivable requirements of an incubation shaking machine. In addition to the shaking device for a tray measuring 475 x 420 mm, it also provides sufficient space for installation of cooling units, lighting inserts, and humidification systems. The downward-opening door flap allows convenient operation both above and below the bench as a table-top shaker. Furthermore, units are stackable up to 2 levels. Additional operational safety features include over-temperature shutdown and a potential-free contact output for connection to an alarm system. Following a power interruption, the machine automatically returns to the preset setpoint values. Through the tight seal to the motor compartment and control electronics, the notorious consequences of piston breakage are definitively reduced to cleaning only. Equipment: In its basic configuration, the MINITRON is equipped for shaking, temperature control, and timer functions. For cooling, a choice can be made between connection to an external cooling medium or an integrated refrigeration unit. Additional optional accessories include gas inlet ports, daylight or photosynthesis lighting inserts, and a humidification device. Capacity (Erlenmeyer flasks) per tier: 69 x 50 ml, 46 x 100 ml, 25 x 250 ml, 15 x 500 ml, 10 x 1000 ml, 6 x 2000 ml, 2 x 5000 ml. External dimensions (W x D x H): 80 x 67 x 73 cm. Drive: Magnetic. Shaking frequency: 20 - max. 400 rpm (depending on load configuration). Shaking stroke: 50 mm. Accuracy: ± 1 % at maximum speed. Temperature range: 5 °C above room temperature to 60 °C.
