Benchmark Scientific BV1010TSTE [BV1010-TST-E] BenchMixer XLQ QuEChERS Shaker/Vortexer, 230 V, EU Plug

Benchmark Scientific's BV1010-TST-E BenchMixer XLQ has been designed for use in QuEChERS and other sample prep methods. Supplied with racks for 50 ml tubes held horizontally and 15 ml and 1.5/2.0 ml tubes held vertically, it takes the place of traditional manual shaking in these applications.

Multiple samples can be processed simultaneously in the BV1010TSTE Benchmixer XLQ's large capacity racks, saving time and preventing operator fatigue. The vigorous, consistent shaking ensures all samples are exposed to identical conditions within the same batch of samples, as well as between batches.

The BV1010-TST-E BenchMixer XLQ creates a true vortex in vertical sample racks by holding the top of the tube stationary while the bottom rotates in a 3.6 mm orbit. Time and speed are precisely controlled by the digital microprocessor. A pulse mode allows for more vigorous mixing. Quiet operation, minimal vibration and a long service life are guaranteed by the precisely balanced drive system and powerful motor.

Using the BV1010-TST-E is simple. To load the sample racks, loosen the knobs on the stationary steel rods and raise the top sample plate. One rod is shorter than the other, allowing the plate to be lifted up and swivelled to one side. After samples are loaded, lower the plate into place and tighten the knobs. Select the desired speed and run time on the digital control panel and press start. The BV1010-TST-E can perform unattended mixing for as little as 1 minute or up to 100 hours.

While the BV1010-TST-E is configured primarily for QuEChERS protocols, additional racks are available to accommodate nearly any type of vessel commonly found in the laboratory. Built for heavy-duty use, the instrument carries a 2-year warranty and comes with an EU plug for european outlets.
