The Cooling Shaking Water Bath provides precise temperature control from 5°C to 100°C with integrated rotary shaking capability for consistent sample agitation. The 32-liter capacity chamber accommodates multiple sample containers while maintaining temperature stability within ±0.1°C fluctuation. The rotary shaking mechanism operates at adjustable speeds from 60-280 rpm with 20mm oscillation amplitude, ensuring uniform mixing and heat distribution throughout incubation procedures.
Designed for applications requiring simultaneous temperature control and sample agitation, this unit features LCD display for monitoring parameters and programmable timing up to 999 minutes. The 2600W heating/cooling system enables rapid temperature transitions and stable operation across the full temperature range, supporting both heated incubations and refrigerated sample processing protocols.
How It Works
The cooling shaking water bath combines thermoelectric cooling with resistive heating elements to achieve precise temperature control across a wide operational range. The integrated cooling system enables sub-ambient temperature operation down to 5°C, while the heating elements provide rapid temperature elevation to 100°C. Temperature regulation is maintained through PID control algorithms that monitor chamber temperature via precision sensors and adjust heating or cooling output to maintain setpoint within ±0.1°C.
The rotary shaking mechanism employs an eccentric drive system that generates orbital motion with 20mm amplitude at user-selectable speeds from 60-280 rpm. This orbital motion ensures uniform heat transfer and prevents thermal stratification within sample containers while maintaining gentle agitation that preserves sample integrity. The shaking motion is synchronized with temperature control to provide consistent environmental conditions throughout extended incubation periods.

Practical Tips
Perform temperature calibration verification at multiple points across your working range using NIST-traceable reference standards.
Why: Multi-point calibration ensures accuracy across different temperature setpoints rather than single-point verification.
Clean chamber and components weekly with mild detergent and inspect cooling vents monthly for blockage.
Why: Regular cleaning prevents contamination buildup and maintains efficient heat transfer for consistent performance.
Allow 30-minute equilibration time after reaching setpoint before adding samples, especially for sub-ambient temperatures.
Why: Thermal equilibration ensures uniform temperature distribution throughout the chamber for consistent sample treatment.
Use appropriate personal protective equipment when handling samples at temperature extremes and ensure proper ventilation around cooling components.
Why: Temperature extremes pose burn/freeze hazards and cooling systems require airflow for safe operation.
Record actual temperature and shaking parameters during operation rather than relying solely on setpoint values for documentation.
Why: Actual operating conditions may vary slightly from setpoints and should be documented for reproducible protocols.
If temperature overshoot occurs during heating, reduce heating rate settings or check for thermal load imbalance in chamber.
Why: Thermal overshoot can damage temperature-sensitive samples and indicates need for parameter optimization.
Distribute sample containers evenly throughout chamber and secure with appropriate clamps to prevent movement during shaking.
Why: Balanced loading ensures uniform heat distribution and prevents container displacement that could affect mixing efficiency.

Compliance
What is the temperature accuracy and how should I verify calibration?
Temperature precision is ±0.5°C with ±0.1°C fluctuation during operation. Verify calibration using NIST-traceable reference thermometer and perform periodic validation according to your laboratory's SOP requirements.
Can the unit operate continuously for extended incubation periods?
Yes, the programmable timer supports up to 999 minutes of continuous operation. For longer protocols, the timer can be reset manually or the unit can operate in continuous mode without automatic shutdown.
What types of sample containers are compatible with the shaking mechanism?
The rotary shaking motion with 20mm amplitude accommodates various container types up to 20kg total load. Use appropriate racks or clamps to secure containers and prevent movement during agitation.
How quickly can the unit transition between temperature setpoints?
Temperature change rate depends on setpoint differential and ambient conditions. The 2600W heating/cooling system provides efficient transitions, typically achieving new setpoints within 15-30 minutes for moderate temperature changes.
What maintenance is required for the cooling system components?
Regular cleaning of cooling vents and periodic inspection of cooling elements. Consult product datasheet for specific maintenance schedules and procedures for optimal cooling performance.
Is the shaking motion suitable for cell culture applications?
The gentle rotary motion with adjustable speed 60-280 rpm is appropriate for most cell culture mixing applications. Select lower speeds (60-120 rpm) for delicate cell types to minimize mechanical stress.
