Fisherbrand Incubating Microplate Shaker, Cat. #: 02217759
The Fisherbrand Incubating Microplate Shaker, Cat. #: 02217759 is designed to deliver consistent and uniform shaking with its variable speed microprocessor control, displaying the last set-point for convenience. It features a PID temperature controller, ensuring precise temperature control from Ambient +5°C to 65°C, and offers a speed range from 100 to 1,200 RPM with an accuracy of ±2 % up to 999 RPM and ± 5% from 1,000 to 1,200 RPM. The device ensures temperature uniformity of ± 0.5°C at 37°C and its timer can be set from 1 second to 9999 minutes. It has a compact orbit size of 0.125 in. (3 mm) and can accommodate up to 4 microplates or 2 microtube racks on its 11 x 7.75 in. (27.9 x 19.7 cm) platform. The shaker is built with a triple eccentric drive, lubricated ball bearings, and a maintenance-free, brushless DC motor.
The Fisherbrand Incubating Microplate Shaker features easy-to-read, independent LED displays for temperature, speed, and time, and includes a temperature calibration mode for external calibration. Safety features include overload protection with audible and visual signals, speed ramping to gently reach the desired set-point, and a timer with an audible alarm. It also has a 'caution hot' indicator symbol and a spill-resistant design, enhancing its usability and safety in the lab. The shaker operates effectively in conditions ranging from 5°C to 40°C (41°F to 104°F), with a maximum relative humidity of 80%, non-condensing. An optional clear polycarbonate lid is available for easy viewing of samples without disturbing the internal environment, making the Fisherbrand Incubating Microplate Shaker an ideal choice for labs seeking repeatable and accurate results with ease of use.
All of our equipment is in excellent condition and will be fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.

- Validate that the power supply and PCB deliver stable, correct voltage outputs across all necessary connections, ensuring reliable operation
- Thoroughly inspect the display for any dim, flickering, or dead pixels; replace affected elements to maintain full readability and operational clarity
- Test the full range of button functionality, confirming responsive, accurate input recognition across all settings
- Conduct a detailed inspection of bearings and bearing housing, identifying any worn or damaged bearings, and replace as needed to prevent operational disruption
- Examine the drive belt for signs of cracking, fraying, or material breakdown; replace as required to ensure sustained performance
- Measure and adjust motor drive belt tension to optimal specifications, securing reliable and efficient power transmission
- Verify accuracy of the onboard timer, confirming proper functionality and replacing if it deviates from expected performance
- Calibrate shaker rotation speed with a NIST-traceable tachometer, validating precision within specified operational limits
- Run the shaker continuously for an 8-12 hour testing period, closely observing the shaking platform for smooth, consistent motion, while monitoring for any error indicators such as knocking, skipping, or unusual vibrations
- Perform a comprehensive cosmetic inspection to confirm the device’s exterior meets aesthetic and quality standards, free from visible damage or wear
