KL 2 Dual-Action Shaker: Versatility and Precision for Your Laboratory Applications
The KL 2 Dual-Action Shaker from Edmund Bühler is an indispensable tool for modern laboratories, offering unmatched flexibility and precision. This shaker stands out for its ability to switch between two types of motion: orbital and reciprocating. This feature allows it to adapt to a wide range of applications, from mixing solutions and suspending particles to promoting chemical reactions.
The 300 x 300 mm stirring platform provides sufficient space to accommodate various containers, such as 250 ml Erlenmeyer flasks or 250 ml decanting flasks. The maximum load capacity of 2 kg ensures optimum stability and safety during agitation. The agitation speed, adjustable from 30 to 420 rpm, allows precise control of the degree of mixing or agitation required for each specific application.
The KL 2 shaker is equipped with an adjustable timer from 0 to 120 minutes, with a continuous operation option. This feature is particularly useful for experiments requiring prolonged shaking without interruption. The 8 mm stroke ensures efficient back-and-forth movement, while the IP 21 enclosure protection guarantees resistance to splashes and dust, which is essential in a laboratory environment.
The shaker is designed to operate in an ambient temperature range of 5°C to 50°C and can withstand relative humidity of up to 85%. These technical specifications ensure optimal performance in a variety of laboratory conditions. In addition, the shaker is lightweight, weighing only 13.5 kg, making it easy to move and install.
In terms of energy consumption, the KL 2 stirrer emits approximately 4 W of heat, which is negligible for most laboratory environments. It is available with a power supply of 230 V or 115 V, at 50/60 Hz, offering global compatibility. The compact dimensions of the device (355 x 455 x 195 mm) allow for easy integration into confined workspaces.
The Dual-Action KL 2 shaker from Edmund Bühler is a versatile and precise piece of laboratory equipment, ideal for a variety of applications requiring controlled shaking. Its ability to switch between two types of motion, its adjustable shaking speed and its robust technical specifications make it a preferred choice for laboratory professionals.
