Product description

Orbital shaker with 10-250 RPM, 1-60 min timer, and 0-40°C tolerance for bioprocessing and molecular biology.

The Thermo Fisher Scientific MaxQ 2000 Shaker SHKA2506 is a versatile orbital reciprocating shaker designed for precise agitation in biotechnology, molecular diagnostics, and clinical research laboratories. Featuring analog dial controls, it provides adjustable shaking speeds from 10 to 250 RPM, supporting both gentle and vigorous mixing essential for bioprocessing, bacterial culture growth, and electrophoresis gel staining.

Key technical specifications include:

  • Orbit ranges from 1.27 to 3.8 cm (0.5 to 1.5 inches) for customizable agitation patterns
  • Timer functionality allowing continuous operation or preset durations from 1 to 60 minutes
  • Load capacity supporting up to 15 lbs on a 13×12 inch platform, suitable for a variety of lab vessels including separatory funnels
  • Environmental tolerance to temperatures between 0 to 40°C (39°F to 104°F) and humidity levels up to 80% non-condensing, enabling compatibility with incubators, environmental chambers, and refrigerators
  • Compact dimensions of 18 x 14 x 12 inches and power requirements of 120V, 50/60 Hz, 0.45A

This shaker’s interchangeable platform and clamps enhance adaptability, making it critical in workflows involving synthetic biology, gene editing, and molecular cloning. The robust mechanical design and precise control make it widely adopted for live-cell imaging preparations, chemical extractions, and various biomanufacturing applications.

Ideal for researchers specializing in biotechnology and cell imaging, the MaxQ 2000 optimizes reproducibility and efficiency in laboratory agitation tasks. Its analog control interface ensures user-friendly operation while maintaining the stability required for sensitive biological processes.

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?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that 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.
