The VWR Cooling Thermal Shake Touch Cat. # 89232-904 delivers precise temperature control and reliable shaking performance for demanding laboratory applications. It features a speed range of 300 to 3,000 RPM (300 to 2,200 RPM with standard block) with ±2% accuracy, and temperature control from 17°C below ambient to 100°C. The intuitive 4.3" color LCD touchscreen enables rapid, simultaneous adjustment of speed, temperature, and time, while clearly displaying real-time status. A PID temperature controller maintains accuracy within ± 0.5°C between 20°C and 45°C, and ± 2°C beyond this range. Heating rates up to 5°C per minute and cooling to 3°C ensure efficient operation, complemented by user-programmable memory for automated, multi-step processes. Compact footprint (10.25 x 9.75 x 5.2 in.) optimizes bench space, and advanced safety features - including cool-touch housing, limit controls, and audible alarms - ensure secure, consistent operation.
All of our equipment is fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
