Product selector guide for Thermo Scientific MaxQ shakers, detailing model options, capacities, motion types, temperature ranges, and platform sizes.
This guide presents Thermo Scientific MaxQ shakers as reliable, flexible, and simple lab equipment for shaking applications. It details various models including MaxQ 2000, 3000, 4450, 5000, 6000, 7000, 8000, and high-performance variants like MaxQ 416 HP and MaxQ 430 HP. Each model offers different platform sizes, capacities, motion types (orbital or reciprocating), temperature ranges, and load capacities. Options include incubated, refrigerated, and benchtop/floor/stackable configurations. The shakers feature digital controls, PID temperature control, alarms, and brushless motors for continuous operation. They are designed for cell culture, solubility studies, extraction, and other lab mixing tasks.
The guide includes technical specifications such as RPM ranges, platform dimensions, maximum load, and temperature control limits. It also highlights features like triple eccentric drives, CO2-resistant options, and customizable platforms for flasks, beakers, and plates. All models come with a 10-year warranty on drive mechanisms and are certified for safety (UL, cUL, CE).
