Orbital Shaker
Orbital Shaker (Product Code: SLE/CL/68) is a microprocessor-controlled bench shaker that moves its platform in a steady circular orbit to mix, dissolve and keep in suspension the liquids held in flasks, beakers, dishes and Petri dishes. It can run continuously or on a timer, and is used mainly in secondary and tertiary laboratories with a stable power supply, where it supports several techniques and, most often, the preparation of reagents for more complex tests. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, as part of its range of analytical lab instruments in India for clinical and teaching laboratories.

Typical Use
In a clinical laboratory the shaker is usually loaded with flasks of buffer or reagent that must be brought fully into solution, culture dishes that need gentle and even agitation, or beakers of stain being mixed before filtration. The operator sets a speed between 100 and 350 rpm and either leaves the unit running continuously or enters a run time. The LCD shows the set and actual values side by side, and a beep confirms when a timed run has switched itself off, so staff can attend to other tasks instead of watching the clock.
Spread vessels evenly across the 24 x 24 cm platform, keep the total load within 2.5 kg, and start at a low speed before stepping up so that liquid does not climb over the rim; open beakers and Petri dishes generally need slower settings than stoppered flasks. Built-in surge protection helps where mains voltage fluctuates, but the instrument is still best placed on a stable, level bench. Laboratories assembling lab equipment for research in India often pair one shaker with a hot plate stirrer so that both gentle mixing and heated stirring are available.
Manufacturer
This orbital shaker is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the Ambala, Haryana company that trades under the ScienceLab name and builds instruments for clinical, teaching and research laboratories. Background on the company, its facilities and its product lines is available on the ScienceLab company profile.
Related Clinical Laboratory Equipment
Items commonly used alongside the shaker when preparing and mixing reagents:
- Petri Dish Glass With Lid — culture dishes that sit flat on the platform for gentle agitation
- Beaker Plastic — open vessels for mixing reagent solutions at low speed
- Hot Plate With Stirrer — for solutions that must be heated while they are stirred
- Vortex Test Tube — rapid mixing of individual tubes too small for the platform
- Orbital Shaker, Digital — another digital orbital shaker listed in our Laboratory Instruments range

Frequently Asked Questions
What speed range and orbit does the shaker offer?
Speed is set between 100 and 350 rpm with a 4mm amplitude, and the LCD displays both the set and the actual speed during the run.
How much can the platform carry?
Up to 2.5 kg, on a platform of approximately 24 x 24 cm that accommodates flasks, beakers, dishes and Petri dishes. Our listing does not describe clamps or a holding mat, so please contact us to confirm how your vessels will be secured.
Can it be left to run unattended?
Yes, in timed mode. It switches off automatically at the end of the set time and gives an audible signal; for longer jobs it can also run continuously.
What power supply does it need?
100V/240V at 50/60Hz, with voltage surge protection built in. It is intended for facilities that have a stable power supply.
Is a calibration certificate or warranty included?
Neither is stated in our listing. Please discuss calibration certificate availability and warranty terms with our team before ordering.
What should an institutional enquiry include?
