This Techne shaker unit is designed for use with microtiter plates and microcentrifuge tubes. The aluminum tray is fitted with a specially designed mat that securely holds in place up to four wellplates. High speed combined with a tiny orbit creates the vibrational shaking action required for mixing the very small volumes contained in the wells or in microcentrifuge tubes.

For samples that need to be mixed under controlled temperature / humidity conditions, the TSSM5 footprint is ideal for placement inside an incubator including a CO2 incubator.

Speed is variable from 250 to 1,200 rpm and is easily set via the digital display in 50 rpm increments. Shaking times can be set from 1 to 999 minutes on the built in digital timer. The unit can also be set for continuous operation. The tube holders are available as optional accessories. They fit securely into the platform tuning the unit into an effective microtube mixer.
