5.1.2 Description
Brief technical description
The shaking device enables controlled shaking of test flasks or test tubes in a water
bath. The shaking device performs a back and forth movement with a frequency of ap-
prox. 30 to 150 strokes per minute. The shaking frequency is electronically controlled
and adjustable via touch screen. The same ambient conditions apply for use as for the
basic units.
NOTICE
If the shaking device remains in a switched-on water bath, the shaking device must always be switched on, as in the switched-off
state, the overpressure steam barrier is inoperative, and condensate can enter the shaking device housing.
5.1.3 Intended use
The Memmert shaking device is intended exclusively for a Memmert water bath WTB15,
WTB24, WTB35 or WTB50. It is used for the controlled back and forth movement of
samples at 30 to 150 rpm (strokes per minute), with one of approx. 15mm. The sample
holder is in direct contact with the temperature control medium.
5.1.4 Use not in accordance with the intended purpose
Depending on the loading of the shaking device and the selected shaking frequency,
the temperature control medium and/or the shaking material could spill over. The user's
responsibility is to adjust the shaking frequency or the fill level but without going below
the minimum fill level.
