Thermo Scientific Digital Waving Rotator, Cat. #: 88882003
The Thermo Scientific Digital Waving Rotator, Cat. #: 88882003 is engineered for comprehensive sample mixing, utilizing a 360° orbital waving motion that ensures efficient mixing. This rotator is particularly suited for sensitive lab processes such as ELISA, protein synthesis, gel staining and destaining, as well as antibody staining. It offers a variable speed range of 5 to 120 RPM with precise speed accuracy: ± 1 RPM at speeds up to 30 RPM and ± 2 RPM at speeds above 30 RPM.
The rotator is equipped with an adjustable timer from 1 minute up to 99 hours and 59 minutes, or it can operate continuously, catering to a variety of experimental timelines. The tilt angle can be fine-tuned from 1° to 12°, allowing for customized setup according to specific needs. An LED display enhances usability, while its maximum load capacity is 21.6 lbs. (9.8 kg), capable of handling up to six 96-well microplates. The platform measures 12.4 x 10.9 inches (31.6 x 27.6 cm), supporting a 3D circular rocking motion that thoroughly mixes contents under various lab conditions.
The Thermo Scientific Digital Waving Rotator, Cat. #: 88882003 includes:
- > 12.4" x 10.9" Dimpled Rubber Mat Platform
- > NIST Calibration and Preventative Maintenance Report
- > Power Cord
- > Operator’s Manual
- > Full 180 Day Parts and Labor Warranty

- 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
