VWR 5000 Advanced Orbital Shaker
The VWR 5000 Advanced Orbital Shaker, Cat # 89032-104, is designed for a wide range of applications including cell cultures that require accurate and repeatable results. The microprocessor control provides consistent uniform shaking while safely ramping to the set speed. The touch pad controls with easy-to-read LED displays for speed and time allow both settings to be seen at once. The VWR Advanced Orbital Shaker Model 5000 has a speed range from 20 to 500 RPM. All of our equipment will be fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
The VWR 5000 Advanced Orbital Shaker includes:
- > 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
