Heidolph Titramax Package Platform Shaker Set, with Heating Module and Incubation Hood, 544-12209-00

If you want to shake samples whilst maintaining a constant temperature, you’ll need more than just the platform shaker on its own. The Titramax package combines the Titramax 1000 with the Incubator 1000 heating module and a flat incubation hood to form a ready-to-use incubation system, without the need to assemble the three components individually.

Three components, one system

The package includes the Titramax 1000 platform shaker (order number 544-12200-00), the Incubator 1000 heating module (order number 549-90010-00) with a heating power of 300 watts and a temperature of up to 65 °C, and a flat incubation hood that completes the assembly at the top. The heating module is positioned beneath the shaker and heats the interior space beneath the hood evenly, enabling even thermophilic organisms to be incubated. The flat hood covers the top of the Titramax 1000’s working area and retains the heat inside, whilst the platform below continues to operate. Anyone requiring a taller configuration, for example for larger vessels requiring agitation and heating, can order the tall incubation hood separately; it is available as a standalone accessory. The ambient temperature range for the shaker is 5 to 31 °C at up to 80 % relative humidity; at higher temperatures up to 40 °C, the permissible humidity decreases linearly to 50 %. The unit is designed for installation at altitudes of up to 2,000 metres above sea level.

Advantages over a standalone shaker

The Titramax 1000 on its own agitates samples at room temperature on a working area of 290 x 258 millimetres for up to six microtitre plates, with a 1.5-millimetre orbit and 150 to 1,350 revolutions per minute. The package also includes temperature control; agitation and heating operate simultaneously, which shortens processes that would otherwise require a separate incubator. Those who already own the shaker and simply wish to retrofit it can order the heating module and hood separately; those starting from scratch save the effort of matching the individual components by choosing the package. Within the 1000 series, this combination is intended for the Titramax 1000; the smaller models, the Titramax 100 and Titramax 101, have no dedicated heating-module accessory.

Typical applications

• Temperature-controlled incubation of cell cultures or microorganisms under agitation
• Cultivation of thermophilic organisms up to 65 °C
• Combined shaking and heating processes without a separate incubator
• Batch experiments with up to six microtitre plates at a constant temperature

Technical details

The following values refer to the Titramax 1000 base unit. The heating module provides an additional 300 watts of heating power at a final temperature of up to 65 °C; we provide further technical data on the heating module and incubation hood on request.
