If the shaker platform (4) strikes the drive block (5) during
operation:
An irritating noise is generated, the magnetic shaker, however, is not
damaged in any way. When the resonance frequency is reached
during a high shaking power, it may result in such strokes.
♦
Reduce the frequency using the frequency selection knob (11), or
♦
Reduce the shaking power (see Remote operation, Chapter 6).
Microtiter plates (MTP’s):
A wide variety of 1536 microtiter plates is commercially available. We
recommend the use of microtiter plates with standard dimensions
pursuant to ANSI/SBS 1-2004
Tolerable side height: 1.9 - 2.8 mm
. If necessary, non-standardized
microtiter plates may be used after they have been tested.
The fixating elements (3) are shaped in such a way that they can
harmonize irregularities and various forms of plate edges can be
inserted. In this way, microtiter plates are always precisely fixed and
positioned.
In general, the mixing performance of microtiter plates with rectangular
wells is better than the mixing performance of microtiter plates with
cylindrical or conical wells.
The TELESHAKE 1536 (-6, -8, LIFT) is also suitable for 384 microtiter
plates with standard dimensions.
