The C-76 Classic Water Bath Shaker is a shaker utilizing an eccentric counterbalanced drive to
provide horizontal plane rotary motion in a 1/2” (1.3 cm) circular orbit. A Proportional/Integral
(PI) Microprocessor controller with instantaneous digital feedback controls the speed over a
range of 50-300 RPM. It also provides temperature control over a range of 7
°C above ambient to
80
°C. For lower temperatures, an optional water bath cooling coil is available.
The shaker may be operated either continuously or in a timed mode via a programmable timer for
shaking periods of 0.1 hour to 99.9 hours.
In addition, the C-76 is equipped with visual alarms that alert the user to the following
conditions:
• The end of a timed run
• Deviations in shaking speed
• Deviations in temperature
• Power failure
A wide variety of platforms can be used with the C-76. Dedicated platforms are available for a
variety of flask sizes. Universal platforms, utility trays, utility carriers and test tube racks are
also available.
