Unico Orbital Rotator

Yes, the Unico Orbital Rotator is designed with universal power requirements for flexibility across different laboratory settings. It accommodates a wide input voltage range of 120 V to 220 V.

The Unico Orbital Rotator offers precise, variable speed control managed through its digital interface, ensuring accuracy for a wide range of laboratory mixing applications.

• Speed Range: The orbital mixing action can be adjusted from a minimum of 25 up to 250 revolutions per minute (rpm).
• Digital Timing: You can set timed cycles from 0 minutes up to 99 hours and 59 minutes, with an indicator bell to alert you when the cycle is complete.
• Load Capacity: The acceptable sample load varies based on speed, supporting up to 4.4 lb at lower speeds (20-150 rpm) and 2.2 lb at higher speeds (151-240 rpm).

The maximum load capacity of the Unico Orbital Rotator depends on the operating speed to ensure stability and precise mixing:

• For low speeds (20–150 rpm), the maximum load capacity is 4.4 lb.
• For high speeds (151–240 rpm), the maximum load capacity is 2.2 lb.

The Unico Orbital Rotator comes complete with the necessary components and accessories for versatile operation. The purchase includes:

• The Main Orbital Rotator Unit.
• A Removable/Replaceable Rubber Pad for the 11” x 11” mixing platform, which helps secure various labware during agitation.
• A Humidity Cover with Moisturizing Sponge to assist in maintaining sample integrity and required environmental conditions.
• A Small Flask Hold Down Spring for securely fastening smaller vessels to the platform.

Yes, the Unico Orbital Rotator provides excellent control over your mixing cycles using digital displays for both time and speed.

• Digital Timer: The timer is digitally adjustable from 0 up to 99 hours and 59 minutes.
• Operational Control: A three-position switch allows for constant operation, off, or timed mixing.
• Cycle Notification: An indicator bell signals the end of the programmed timed cycle, ensuring operational flexibility and convenience.

The mixing platform size of the Unico Orbital Rotator is 11” x 11”.

The Unico Orbital Rotator is a highly versatile instrument designed for precise, consistent orbital agitation in clinical, research, and educational laboratories.

It is ideal for applications requiring gentle yet thorough mixing, including:

• Serology & Immunology: Commonly used for RPR and VDRL slide agglutination tests.
• Microbiology: General agitation of cultures in plates and flasks.
• General Assays: Mixing of solutions across various laboratory consumables.

The large 11” x 11” mixing platform is secured with a removable rubber pad and is capable of accommodating a wide array of samples, such as RPR/VDRL slides, 96 well microtiter plates, culture plates, flasks, and small test tube racks.

Yes, the Unico Orbital Rotator provides versatile control options to suit different laboratory protocols. It features a three-position switch that allows users to easily toggle between: <ul><li>Constant On: For continuous, uninterrupted agitation.</li><li>Timed Mixing: For protocols requiring specific cycle durations.</li><li>Off: To safely power down the unit.</li></ul> Additionally, the device includes an audible indicator bell that alerts you immediately when a timed cycle is complete.

Absolutely. The spacious 11” x 11” mixing platform is equipped with a high-quality, removable and replaceable rubber pad. This design ensures: <ul><li>Secure Grip: Keeps your slides, plates, and flasks firmly in place during operation.</li><li>Easy Cleaning: The removable pad can be quickly cleaned or replaced to maintain a sanitary workspace, preventing cross-contamination between different sample sets.</li></ul>

The included humidity cover is a vital accessory for sensitive laboratory applications. It features a dedicated moisturizing sponge that helps create a stable, humidified environment inside the cover. This is particularly beneficial for: <ul><li>Preventing Evaporation: Keeping samples hydrated during long, continuous mixing runs.</li><li>Maintaining Integrity: Protecting specimens from ambient room air, which is essential for consistent and reproducible results in immunoassay and culture work.</li></ul>
