Features:
● Shaking or Vortexing
Action:
Variable speed control
allows slow speed shaking
action up to high-speed
vortexing.
In addition, each
attachment is designed
to produce different
mixing actions, allowing
users to choose the correct
action for each application.
● Multi-Task Versatility:
A broad range of
attachments of various
shapes, sizes, and materials
allows for mixing of almost all
SI-0246 Analog
common tubes or containers for Hands-Free or Touch
operation.
● Does not walk:
Tough metal housing combined with “just enough
weight”, provides a stable platform for all types of mixing.
● Unmatched Reliability:
Many years of proven performance in laboratories all
over the world.
● Timer Function:
Both Touch and Hands-Free mode automatically turns
unit off after set time.
Touch Mode: 1-60 seconds. Hands-Free (switch activated
Start/Stop) Mode: 1-60 minutes or continuous
mode (SI-T246).
● Convenient:
No need to
watch the
clock. Unit

● Reproducibility: Vortexing time is constant, no matter the day or
operator. Accuracy ±5% (SI-T246).
● Digital speed control and display: Provides accuracy, reproducibility
and repeatability (SI-A246).
● Timer Function: Touch on for 1-99 seconds. Hands-Free for 1-99 minutes
or continuous (SI-A246).
● Hands-Free or Touch: A 3-position power switch operates with
continuous action or “Touch On” control. With the true “Hands-Free”
operation of continuous action, lab operators can greatly increase lab
efficiency (SI-0246 & SI-T246).
Tube inserts:
FIts recessed platform. Accepts tubes from 10mm to 37mm diameter. Inserts hold 4 to 8 tubes, depending upon size.

SI-P246, Pulsing Vortex Mixer
SI-P246
● True pulsing action provides more collisions and random motion.
● For applications requiring more aggressive action than standard vortexing.
● Variable “RUN/STOP” time provides quick pulsing or interval mixing.
● Fully programmable “ON” and “REST” function reduces heat buildup
within the vessel, while keeping materials in suspension. Ideal for heat
sensitive samples.
● Use with all Vortex accessories.
● May also be used as a standard “continuous” Vortex Mixer.
● Digital control and display of speed, time, and “RUN/STOP” time, for
reproducibility and accuracy, with true speed display.
