DOS-10M Digital Orbital Shaker – Precision, performance and versatility for the laboratory
The DOS-10M orbital shaker designed by ELMI Ltd. is a state-of-the-art device for laboratory environments requiring reliable, reproducible agitation that can be adapted to various types of containers. It combines robustness, modern technology and an intuitive interface to meet the needs of researchers, technicians and diagnostic professionals. With its quiet motor, compact design and multiple features, the DOS-10M is the optimal choice for biological, pharmaceutical, chemical and clinical research laboratories.
The device is designed to ensure effective agitation of various types of containers such as sample tubes, vials, Petri dishes and other flat-bottomed containers. Its 355 x 235 mm agitation platform can accommodate loads of up to 5 kg, allowing several samples to be processed simultaneously without compromising performance.
The DOS-10M offers four distinct operating modes, each optimised for specific types of agitation. Orbital mode provides classic circular rotation, adjustable from 10 to 500 rpm, ideal for homogeneous mixtures. Auto-reverse mode adds alternating rotation directions with a configurable number of revolutions, useful for disaggregating samples or preventing sedimentation. Reciprocating mode allows oscillation at a predefined angle ranging from 10° to 360°, reproducing a back-and-forth movement suitable for delicate mixtures. Finally, vibration mode simulates a low-amplitude (1-2 mm) pulsed shaking, suitable for sensitive samples requiring gentle mixing.
The digital control interface provides quick access to all functions via an intuitive navigation panel. Complex sequences with up to four shaking steps can be programmed and repeated up to 99 times or continuously. This offers complete flexibility to adapt the shaking cycle to the specific requirements of experimental protocols.
The simplified menu also allows quick and straightforward operation for users who only require orbital shaking, while the menu provides access to all customisation options. It is also possible to adjust the brightness of the display, the volume of the signals and select the interface language, making it easy to integrate the device into any working environment.
Safety is ensured by numerous recommendations and built-in features. The device is designed for indoor use, must be placed on a flat surface, and must be handled with care when using hazardous substances. Weekly cleaning is recommended, as well as immediate decontamination in the event of biological or chemical spills.
The DOS-10M orbital shaker offers an exceptional combination of performance, customisation and ease of use. It is an ideal solution for laboratories looking for durable, accurate equipment that can be easily integrated into a wide variety of experimental protocols.
