Ohaus SHHD2325AL Heavy Duty Analog Orbital Shaker with 50 lb Capacity

The Ohaus SHHD2325AL Heavy Duty Orbital Shaker is engineered for robust benchtop laboratory applications requiring precise analog speed and timer controls. Featuring a 1 inch (25 mm) orbital motion and a wide speed range of 25 to 500 rpm, this shaker accommodates diverse workflows such as mixing, agitation, staining, extraction, and microbial culture incubation.

Key technical specifications include:

• Maximum load capacity of 50 lb (22.7 kg), supported by a sturdy cold rolled steel construction for enhanced durability under heavy sample volumes commonly encountered in bioprocessing and molecular diagnostics.
• A brushless DC motor coupled with a triple eccentric drive system ensures smooth, continuous orbital motion critical to reproducible sample mixing in synthetic biology and cell culture research.
• The large 24 x 19 inch platform provides a flexible surface compatible with various flask holders, racks, and trays, facilitating workflows in biomanufacturing and live-cell manipulation.
• Analog timer adjustable from 1 to 120 minutes simplifies operation without complex digital programming, enhancing reliability in routine lab protocols.
• Compact dimensions (27 x 24 x 13 inches) and a moderate weight (108 lbs) make it suitable for standard laboratory benches or equipment tables.
• Operates on 120 V power supply with 75 W consumption, optimized for stable performance in typical lab environments (0–40°C, 80% RH, non-condensing).

This heavy duty orbital shaker is widely adopted in biotechnology research facilities due to its robust mechanical design and reliable analog control, making it an essential tool for molecular cloning workflows, biopharmaceutical production pipelines, and fluorescence-based cell assays. Its analog interface and lack of digital features ensure straightforward user calibration and maintenance, preferred in many clinical diagnostic laboratories requiring consistent orbital shaking without network dependencies.

Overall, the Ohaus SHHD2325AL combines high-capacity orbital agitation, durable construction, and precise analog controls, meeting the demands of advanced research applications in biomedical engineering, neuroscience, and cellular imaging domains.
