Performance and reliability with the VORTEX-GENIE 2 series of stirrers: the essential ally of the modern laboratory
The VORTEX-GENIE 2 agitator is an essential tool in research, analysis and teaching laboratories. Designed by Scientific Industries, it stands out for its reliability, ease of use and ability to perform fast, homogeneous and reproducible mixing, regardless of the type of container used. This model is designed for intensive daily use, thanks to its solid construction and industrial-grade components.
Its powerful motor allows the platform to rotate in a controlled manner between 600 and 3200 rpm, with speed adjustment via an intuitive rotary knob. Whether for gentle or vigorous mixing, the VORTEX-GENIE 2 adapts to all applications. It has two stirring modes: touch mode, where mixing starts at the touch of a tube on the platform, and continuous mode, for prolonged mixing without intervention.
One of the major advantages of this device is its compatibility with a wide range of interchangeable accessories, allowing it to accommodate different tube and vial formats. The quick and secure attachment system ensures simple and reliable accessory changes. The model comes standard with a 3-inch platform covered with chemical-resistant thermoplastic rubber and a "Pop-off" cup suitable for tubes up to 40 mm in diameter.
The zinc alloy housing ensures excellent stability during shaking, preventing any movement on the bench. It is also designed to efficiently dissipate the heat generated during prolonged use. Maintenance of the device is minimal: simply clean the surface with a damp cloth and avoid direct splashes.
The VORTEX-GENIE 2 is available in three versions adapted to different global electrical standards: G560 for the North American market (120 V), G560E for the European market (230 V), and G560-100V for the Japanese market (100 V). All versions offer the same performance and functionality, with only the electrical configuration varying.
This vortex mixer has proven its effectiveness in numerous applications: homogenisation of biological samples, dissolution of powders, resuspension of cells, and preparation of solutions in chemistry and biology. Versatile, compact and robust, it is the ideal choice for demanding professionals.
