2.3 Features
2.3.1 Thermomixer comfort / Thermomixer R
The Thermomixer comfort / Thermomixer R offers many options for temperature control and
mixing of liquids in the microliter and milliliter ranges:
• In exchangeable thermoblocks liquids can be simultaneously mixed and
temperature-controlled
– in 0.2, 0.5, 1.5, 2.0 ml micro test tubes (e.g. Eppendorf Safe-Lock and PCR tubes),
– in Falcon tubes 15 and 50 ml,
– in 1.5 and 2 ml Cryo tubes,
Operating Manual
– in 5 ml test tubes made from plastic or glass
– as well as MTP or DWP with any bottom contours, incl. PCR plates
• Cooling down the samples to 13 °C below room temperature is achieved by Peltier cooling.
Two special functions extend the area of application of theThermomixer comfort / Thermomixer R
• Interval mixing:
Continuous alternation between mixing phase and standstill where mixing frequency and
duration of the mixing and pause functions can be freely selected.
• Program mode:
In addition to a normal mixing/temperature control run two combined, consecutive mixing/
temperature control runs can be freely programmed. When the first run is completed, the
second run will switch on automatically so that two different treatments of the same liquid can
be carried out.
With the Eppendorf IsoRack, a total of 24 micro test tubes can be placed on an exchangeable
thermoblock. The IsoRack is part of the IsoTherm system. This means that with the Thermomixer
comfort / Thermomixer R and the IsoTherm system, micro test tubes can be handled on the lab
bench at all the temperatures that are relevant for everyday lab use.
The robust, space-saving design of the Thermomixer comfort / Thermomixer R combined with
the chemical-resistant plastic housing and the keypad make this Eppendorf device another
professional companion in your daily routine.

2.3.2 IsoTherm system (optional accessory)
With the IsoTherm system the samples can be cooled efficiently and at a constant temperature
for several hours and then be thawed gently.
In addition, the tube holder serves as a working aid during the filling of micro test tubes and the
preparation, sorting, distribution, transporting, storing and freezing of samples in micro test
tubes.
The IsoTherm system includes the components IsoRack, IsoPack, IsoSafe and PCR-Cooler.
Features
• IsoPack and IsoSafe
Cooling batteries for -21°C and 0 °C which allow temperature-sensitive samples to be
stored for hours on the lab bench in micro test tubes and in a corresponding insulated box
(IsoSafe).
• IsoRack
Tube holder for 24 micro test tubes (0.5 ml or 1.5/2.0 ml ) each to transfer the tubes from the
cooling battery to the exchangeable thermoblocks. The lockable and stackable,
snap-together IsoRacks are also particularly suited to the storage of micro test tubes in
refrigerators or freezers. The IsoRacks can be autoclaved. The spacing of the test tubes in
the IsoRack is determined by the use of multi-channel pipettes.
• PCR-Cooler
Cool pack for 0 °C for the storage of PCR tubes or plates (semi-skirted, unskirted and
skirted) on the lab bench and in an insulated box (IsoSafe).
Further details can be found on our homepage www.eppendorf.com and in the
operating manual for the IsoTherm system.

If the exchangeable thermoblocks are not attached properly, they can become detached
from the device or break.
Tighten the screws of the exchangeable thermoblocks fingertight.
Warning! Contamination due to opening tube lids.
In the following cases, the lids of PCR tubes can spring open and the sample material
can escape:
• high vapor pressure of the content
• improperly sealed lid
• damaged sealing lip
Always check that micro test tubes have been sealed tightly before use.

5.3 Inserting tubes and plates
Caution! Microplates melt at extremely high temperatures.
WARNING!
Only heat microplates made of polystyrene to a maximum 70 °C.
1. Select a suitable exchangeable thermoblock and mount it (see Inserting exchangeable
thermoblocks on page 18).
2. Place the tubes or plate on the thermoblock.
For optimum temperature control transfer the micro test tubes to the exchangeable
thermoblocks using IsoRacks. The IsoRack reduces the heat exchange of the thermoblock
with the environment. If necessary close the IsoRack lid.
3. If using the MTP thermoblock: put the lid on.
5.4 Time counting mode
The time counting function enables temperature control and/or mixing for a limited period of time.
The temperature will be held constant by the device even after the set time has elapsed.
There are two ways to measure the time of the temperature control processes:
• Time control:
Time counting begins immediately when "Start/Stop" is pressed. The indicator lamp in the
key lights up.
• Temp control:
Time counting only starts when the nominal temperature value has been reached.
During the time in which the device controls the temperature to reach the nominal
temperature, the colon of the time display flashes. This signals that the device is active.
When the nominal temperature has been reached and time counting starts, the indicator
lamp of the "Start/Stop" key lights up.
To terminate the process early, press the "Start/Stop" again.
1. Hold the "Progr." key while switching the device on. Hold the key until the display either
shows time control or temp control.
2. Using the "Time" arrow keys, set time counting.
EN
Operating Manual
On the display, the time will appear on the bottom left. The time can be set from 1 minute to
99 hours 59 minutes. Pressing the key once will alter the setting by one minute. During the
run the remaining run time will be displayed in minutes. The last minute is counted down in
seconds.

The device starts the temperature control. On the display, the nominal temperature is
displayed on the left, the actual temperature on the right. The temperature between 1 °C and
99 °C is then adjusted immediately. When the nominal value is reached, only this value will
be displayed.
The temperature can be adjusted gradually by pressing the key briefly or continuously by
pressing the key continuously.
You can also change the nominal temperature while the device is running. The run will be
continued with the re-set nominal temperature.
5.5.2 Operation without temperature control
Press the "Temp." arrow key until off appears on the display.
The device remains at room temperature and does not heat. You can now use the device as
a mixer without temperature control.
The Thermomixer comfort / Thermomixer R can cool to 13 °C below room temperature.

5.5.3 Mixing
The mixing frequency (-- rpm) is displayed on the right of the display next to the temperature.
1. Set the mixing frequency with the "Mix" arrow keys.
You can set the mixing frequency to 0 or between 300 and 1,500 rpm. Pressing the key once
will adjust the frequency by 50 rpm.
Depending on the software version the device will recognize the mounted exchangeable
thermoblock automatically. The mixing frequency specified for the exchangeable
thermoblock cannot be increased in this case.
2. Press the "Start/Stop" key to start the mixing process.
During the run the green indicator lamp in the "Start/Stop" key lights up.
3. To finish the mixing process, press "Start/Stop" again.

minute, time counting starts in second intervals and then changes to minute intervals.
5.5.5 Interrupting operation
1. Keep the "Start/Stop" key pressed for more than two seconds.
Mixing and time counting are interrupted. You can now carry out manual operations (e.g.
adding reagents, replacing tubes).
2. To continue the run, press the "Start/Stop" key again.
5.5.6 Interval Mix
The "Interval Mix" function enables a continuous alternation of mixing activity and mixing pause.
The device carries out the mixing procedure, interrupted by pauses, until the set total time has
elapsed. The times for mixing and the mixing pause (from 3 seconds to 99 minutes 59 seconds)
can be set independently.
1. Press the "Interval Mix" key for two seconds or more.
