Shaking incubators, also know as environmental shakers, are often used for cell culturing, cell aeration, and solubility studies. In addition to stable temperature conditions, they use an orbital agitation at variable speeds to affect the growth of cell cultures.

This is why the SHEL LAB SI6 and SI6R Shaking Incubators have adjustable stroke lengths to accommodate various cells and applications. This gives flexibility in adjusting the speed and orbit to meet each application.

The SI4 has a transparent hood that lifts up via a hydraulic system so it will function in tight places. All SHEL LAB shaking incubators feature stainless steel interiors which provide excellent durability and an easy-to-clean surface. Each unit has an easy-to-read LED display. The rotation platform is included with each unit and is self-centering for easy installation.

All major functions -- temperature, RPM and time -- have alarms that alert the user to deviations from set parameters. Overtemperature protection is provided via a safety thermostat. Digital keypad operation offers the ability to calibrate the temperature controller to a reference thermometer.

To better support the load over years of constant use, we utilize four load bearing positions for optimal weight distribution.
