The Scientific Industries SI-M236 Multi Vortex-Genie is a large capacity, digital vortex mixer (shaker) with variable speed of 200 to 1,000rpm for gentle shaking to vortexing of multiple vessels at one time, and can be operated in continuous mode or for timed operation from 1 to 99 minutes. This mixer has an adjustable clamping system that accommodates a variety of containers, including deep well plates and up to four 500mL bottles. It also comes with two removable 12-slot tube racks that fit into the clamping system to hold as many as 24 tubes, vials, or cylinders up to 29mm in diameter. It has electronic controls with an LED display that shows speed and time for accurate, repeatable results. Its zinc die-cast housing and vibration-damping feet provide a stable platform to help prevent walking. It can be used in cold rooms and incubators, and has European Conformity (CE) marking. Vortex shakers are commonly used in laboratories to mix liquids.

H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back. 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. Scientific Industries manufactures laboratory equipment such as shakers and mixers, homogenizers, and incubators under the Vortex-Genie and Genie brands. The company, founded in 1954, is headquartered in Bohemia, NY. What's in the Box? Scientific Industries SI-M236 Multi Vortex-Genie (2) removable 12-slot tube racks
