Trust your samples to an outstanding, reliable shaker

You invest a lot into the preparation of your samples from growing cultures that produce DNA or proteins to staining gels and much more. Thermo ScientificMaxQshakers deliver outstanding performance, accuracy and reproducible results year after year.

Our orbital shaker designs provide reliable around- the-clock operation ideally suited to keep your cells alive and flourishing within your working environment. Delivering reliability, simplicity and flexibility, our orbital shakers are easy to operate, offer a wide range of options that can grow with you, and will be a partner in your lab for many years — allowing you to spend more time pursuing your objectives and less time managing your shakers.

Reliability

Our outstanding drive mechanisms provide continuous 24-hour operation and allow you to shake large and uneven loads, smoothly and uniformly. These innovative designs are available on all Thermo Scientific orbital shakers and both designs come with a 10-year warranty on drive mechanisms.

Simplicity

Easy-to-use controls are designed to precisely adjust individual displays for temperature, speed and time. View all parameters simultaneously to prevent risk of error while establishing running conditions.

Flexibility

Benchtop, floor and stackable models are available fully equipped with incubation, refrigeration and water bath options to accommodate any application and budget. Customizable solutions allow you to choose your platform for maximum flexibility and capacity. Platforms allow the addition and interchangeability of clamps that hold various sizes of Thermo ScientificNalgeneErlenmeyer flasks, beakers, test tube racks, separatory funnels and Thermo ScientificNuncmicrowell plates.

Thermo Scientific

MaxQ Digital Shakers

Our MaxQ digital shakers contain a triple eccentric drive mechanism to accommodate heavier loads, provide uniform shaking, designed to ensure 24/7 operation and feature a maintenance-free brushless DC motor.

15 to 500 rpm speed range

View temperature, speed and time simultaneously on three individual LED displays

Continuous timed operation from 0.1 hour to 999 hours or 0.1 minute to 999 minutes

Audible/visual alarms protect cultures from temperature and speed deviations

Thermo Scientific

MaxQ Digital HP Shakers

When you require a reliable solution for sensitive cell cultures needing protection from contamination, choose from our MaxQ high performance line of shakers.

25 to 525 rpm speed range

Backlit display contains run points and set points of temperature, speed and time that can be viewed simultaneously

Continuous operation or timed operation from 1 minute up to 199 hours and 59 minutes

Audible/visual alarms protect cultures from temperature and speed deviations

HEPA filter for maximum protection from contamination

Directed airflow system for optimum temperature uniformity and ideal growth conditions even when the units are full

MaxQ 2000 & 3000 Open Air Platform Shakers

Increase shaking capacity in a small footprint

Choose from several platform sizes to increase capacity by simply changing the platform

Small shaker footprint saves valuable bench space

Units operate in temperature range of 0°C to +40°C and humidity conditions from 20 to 80% noncondensing enabling them to be used in a variety of environments

Triple eccentric drives handle heavy platform loads (MaxQ 2000: 35 lbs, MaxQ 3000: 50 lbs)

Digital CO2 resistant option

Electrical and mechanical components have been treated to protect from up to 10% CO2 and 90% humidity conditions non-condensing

Prevents humidity and CO2 from reacting with electrical components and forming carbonic acid in a CO2* environment

*Some CO2 incubators may require cooling. Please consult your manufacturer.
