Product description
Your shaking orbital incubator provides:

Controlled environment For continuous
growth of biological organisms.

Vibration-free operation A unique
adjustable counterbalance system provides
vibration-free operation regardless of load.

Large chamber A large six cubic foot
chamber facilitates throughput. Shelves in
the top provide space for static incubation
during shaking sessions.

Refrigeration The SSI5R and SSI5R-2
(SI6R SI6R-2) are refrigerated, which
supports insect cell culture and entomology
studies.

Load Flexibility Our unique counterbalance
weighting
system is adjustable to
accommodate off-center loads, varying
capacities and stroke lengths, which in turn
allows smoother running.

Oxygen transfer An adjustable orbit
provides maximum oxygen transfer and
offers three circular/stroke sizes, from
vigorous to gentle, to accommodate different
types of cells.

Sample protection All major functions —
temperature, RPM, and time —have audio
and visual alarms that immediately alert you
to deviations from set parameters.

Over-temperature protection Provided by a
safety thermostat that is independent of the
main temperature controller. Guards your
samples from inadvertent overheating.
Key Features

A brushless DC motor offers quiet and
maintenance-free
orbital shaking
motion.

A PID microprocessor controller
provides precise uniformity.

The rotation platform is included with
each unit and is self-centering for easy
installation.

Large LED displays are easy to read.

Digital keypad operation allows
calibration of the main temperature
controller to a reference thermometer.

A fluorescent light allows you to see all
that's going on.

An interior electrical outlet and a one-
inch hermetically sealed, double-paned
glass viewing window.

Unit exteriors are formed of cold-rolled
steel finished with corrosion resistant
powder coat paint.

made of polished stainless steel, which
provides excellent durability and an
easy-to-clean surface.

An interlock switch stops the shaking
mechanism if the door is opened.

The SSI5R and SSI5R-2 (SI6R SI6R-2)
refrigerate using a 1/6-horsepower
motorized compressor that does not use
CFCs
or HCFC’s.
