New Brunswick Eppendorf Innova 44R Refrigerated Orbital Incubator Shaker

The New Brunswick Eppendorf Innova 44R is a microprocessor-controlled refrigerated orbital incubator shaker designed for *precise temperature and agitation control* in biotechnology and molecular biology labs. Its key features include:

• Temperature range: 20°C below ambient to +80°C with ±0.1°C control accuracy between 30–40°C and ±0.25°C uniformity at 37°C
• Speed range: 25–400 RPM individually; 25–300 RPM with two stacked units; 25–250 RPM with three stacked units, orbit diameter 2.5 cm (1 inch)
• Timer: Programmable up to 99.59 hours or continuous operation; supports up to 4 user-defined protocols with 15 steps each
• Large 18 × 30 inch aluminum platform accommodates flasks up to 5 L, slides out for easy loading
• Triple eccentric counter-balance drive system on 9 lubricated ball bearings ensures stable, low-vibration orbital shaking
• Built-in water reservoir for humidity control to reduce sample evaporation and acts as a spill catcher with drain for cleaning
• Safety features: Imbalance sensor shuts motor down automatically; door interrupt power cut during mid-run access
• Stackable design allows up to three units to maximize throughput without expanding lab footprint
• Remote operation and data logging via RS232 interface enables integration with lab automation and monitoring systems
• Dimensions per unit chamber: 30 x 18 x 17 inches; overall device size 53 x 36 x 39 inches; weight 700 lbs stacked

This refrigerated incubator shaker is widely adopted in biotechnology workflows, including bioprocessing, molecular cloning, and synthetic biology research, making it critical for biopharmaceutical production pipelines that require stringent temperature and agitation controls. Its robust design and precise settings support live-cell culturing, enzyme kinetics studies, and cell imaging sample preparation. The Innova 44R offers researchers a reliable platform for reproducible incubation and shaking conditions essential in molecular diagnostics and biomanufacturing environments.
