Product description

Adjustable speed vortex mixer (0–2500 rpm) with low vibration for efficient sample mixing in biotechnology labs.

The IKA MS2-195-2 Vortex Mixer is a compact and robust benchtop vortex shaker designed for rapid, uniform mixing of liquid samples in biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and clinical research settings. It features an adjustable speed range from 0 to 2500 rpm, allowing precise control suited for molecular diagnostics, bioprocessing, and synthetic biology workflows.

Motor & Operation: Equipped with a brushless DC motor and ball bearings to ensure smooth, quiet operation and long-term durability.
Mixing Motion: Circular oscillation with a 4.5 mm displacement optimizes homogenization and sample consistency.
Control Modes: Supports continuous or touch-activated operation for versatile application needs.
Load Capacity: Supports accessories handling sample weights up to 0.5 kg, suitable for various tube formats and vials.
Operating Conditions: Functions reliably under ambient temperatures between +5°C and +40°C with relative humidity up to 80%, ideal for standard biotechnology laboratory environments.
Safety & Compliance: Integrated thermal overload protection sensor prevents motor overheating. Complies with IEC 60320 standards for electrical safety.
Design & Dimensions: Compact footprint (115 x 225 x 60 mm) and lightweight (3.5 kg) design optimizes bench space efficiency.
Power Supply: Operates on 220–240 V / 50–60 Hz, compatible with universal lab power standards.
Noise and Stability: Minimal vibration and low noise levels support high-throughput workflows and comfortable laboratory environments.

This vortex shaker is widely adopted in molecular biology and biopharmaceutical production pipelines, critical for homogenizing samples in gene editing, synthetic biology research, and molecular cloning workflows. Its efficient design and stringent performance specifications make it an essential tool for laboratories seeking reliable and precise vortex mixing in biotechnology applications.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
