Thermo Scientific Solaris™ Temperature Controlled Orbital Shakers
By Thermo
Thermo Scientific Solaris™ Incubated and Refrigerated Benchtop Shakers combine an ergonomic design with key feature enhancements like Peltier chillers, a sealed electronic system, programmable display, and an easy to clean platform design.
The triple eccentric drive mechanism, engineered to perform with a reduced noise level, is built with proven technology to support heavy loads, always maintaining consistent performance. The belt is maintenance-free and engineered to last the life of the shaker, and the shaker mechanism itself comes with an industry leading warranty.
Intuitive Touchscreen Display
- Create, download, and share up to 99 programs across multiple units for better efficiency and reproducibility in the lab
- Full color, touch screen display is easy-to-read, allowing for clear view of the speed, temperature, and run times from a distance
- User interface has 10 optional languages
- Built-in orbital calculator aids in converting protocols designed with different orbits and estimating the set speed needed to obtain similar results
Efficient and Reliable Operation
- Reliable, heavy-duty triple eccentric drive mechanism provides timed or continuous 24-hour operation to allow smooth and uniform shaking of large or uneven loads
- Unbalanced load sensor stops platform motion when excess vibration is detected and visual/audible alarms signal until condition is corrected
- Soft start feature eliminates sudden starts and stops, splashing of vessel contents or wetting of closures
- Market leading warranty: 2 years labor, 5 years parts, and 10 years drive mechanism
Compatible with GLP/GMP Environments
- Access controls and historical monitoring of alerts, alarms and interaction logs to provide greater security and reproducibility
- USB and Ethernet connections for monitoring and data output
- Sealed electronics system to minimize particle generation and reduce contamination
- Rounded corners, easy-to-remove platforms, and a sealed motor and shaker housing protects the drive mechanism from damaging spills, simplifies cleaning, and controls contamination
Improved User Experience
- Solaris Incubated and Refrigerated Benchtop Shakers use refrigerant-free, environmentally friendly Peltier cooling, which uses 58% less energy compared to older models with traditional compressor designs
- Ergonomic handles, out-of-the way lid hinges, and large clear acrylic lids allow for easy access to the platform with less wrist and hand strain
- Engineered to perform with a reduced noise level and compressor-free design
- Compatible with a wide variety of clamps, racks, trays, and adhesive mats that can accommodate most vessel types (see the manual or brochure for part number and fit recommendations)
