The VWR Advanced Dura-Shaker CO2 Resistant Digital Orbital Shaker is designed for demanding applications, including cell cultures requiring CO₂ and humidity for optimal growth. Built to withstand extreme environments, including 100% humidity conditions, this shaker is ideal for use inside CO₂ incubators and other controlled settings. Its remote control module, equipped with a 5.5-foot (168 cm) thin ribbon cable, allows convenient operation from outside the incubator, attaching magnetically to most incubator doors or sitting on a lab bench.
Equipped with the Accu-Drive™ shaking system, the Dura-Shaker delivers precise speed control, maintaining accuracy within ±1 rpm below 100 rpm and ±1% above 100 rpm. Microprocessor control ensures uniform shaking, while the powerful triple eccentric drive and brushless DC motor support continuous-duty operation with a maximum load of 35 lbs (15.9 kg). The user-friendly touchpad interface provides independent LED displays for speed and time, ensuring clear visibility across lab benches. Additional features include RS232 interface for data logging and unit control, an adjustable speed calibration mode, and audible/visual alerts in case of obstruction. Compatible with multiple platform configurations, the Dura-Shaker adapts to various laboratory needs, from flask clamps to separatory funnel platforms.
All of our equipment will be fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.

Shaker Inspection and Recertification Checklist
- 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
