Fisher Scientific Microplate Shaker Vortexer for Controlled Microplate Agitation

The Fisher Scientific Microplate Shaker Vortexer is a benchtop microplate vortexer designed for precise and controlled agitation of a single microplate. Featuring a 3.5 mm orbital motion and variable speed control from 300 to 2500 rpm in continuous mode, it enables adjustable mixing intensity essential for consistent plate-based sample preparation in molecular diagnostics and synthetic biology workflows. The device also includes a touch mode, which activates vortexing at 3500 rpm upon pressing the platform, ideal for rapid short-duration mixing required in gene editing and bioprocessing protocols.

Key features include:

• Variable speed: 300–2500 rpm continuous; 3500 rpm touch mode
• Orbit diameter: 3.5 mm for uniform mixing
• Digital timer: programmable from 1 minute up to 24 hours with automatic shutoff, ensuring reproducible agitation cycles critical in biomanufacturing and clinical diagnostics
• Single microplate capacity: platform size 5 x 7 inches accommodates standard laboratory microplates
• Compact footprint: 12 x 6 x 6 inches, facilitating placement in tight benchtop environments near sample prep stations or shared instrument areas
• Electrical specs: operates on 120 V, 30 W, 0.25 A at 50/60 Hz, maintaining energy-efficient performance

This microplate vortexer is widely used in cell imaging, fluorescence analysis, and biotechnology research—making it a fundamental tool for laboratories engaged in molecular cloning workflows, live-cell sample mixing, and synthetic biology research. Its precise speed modulation and programmable timing improve sample homogeneity and reproducibility in critical research and clinical settings.

Optimized for both stability and operational flexibility, the Fisher Microplate Shaker Vortexer supports essential laboratory applications, from bioprocessing to molecular diagnostics, making it a reliable instrument for routine microplate agitation with fast, consistent vortexing performance.
