About Benchmark Scientific H5000-HC Multi-Therm Vortex

The Benchmark Scientific H5000-HC Multi-Therm Vortex Shaker vortexes, heats, and cools in continuous timed operation at a variable speed of 200 to 1,500rpm and with temperature control from 0 to 100 degrees C for molecular biology applications. The timer can be set for one minute to 99 hours, 99 minutes of continuous operation. This vortex shaker accepts interchangeable H5000 series blocks (sold separately) to accommodate a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) plate or tube sizes from 0.2mL to 50mL. Its LCD shows actual and selected values for speed, time, and temperature, and has a sequence link function for linking or repeating programs. An over-temperature control helps ensure sample integrity. Vortex shakers are commonly used in laboratories to mix liquids.

Vortex shakers mix small amounts of liquid in laboratory containers for biochemical, microbiological, and other applications. A vortex shaker can be analog or digital and is commonly an automated, electrically powered, benchtop unit with a base that holds a rubber cup or a platform that spins off center. The user places a test tube, beaker, or other small vessel of liquid onto the spinning cup or platform, creating a vortex to mix the liquid. Some models can hold multiple containers, often by an accessory attached to the base. Additional features may include fixed or variable speeds, touch or hands-free operation, and various voltages. Benchmark Scientific manufactures sterilization and temperature control equipment, centrifuges and mixers, and other laboratory products. The company, founded in 2008, is headquartered in South Plainfield, NJ.
