CZGY TT-G06W Orbital Shaker

Overview

The CZGY TT-G06W Orbital Shaker is an engineered platform for consistent, low-shear mixing of liquid samples in life science, environmental, clinical, and industrial laboratories. It operates on the principle of orbital motion—generating a circular, non-vortexing trajectory at adjustable rotational speeds—to ensure uniform suspension of cells, reagents, or particulates without excessive foaming or shear-induced damage. Designed for reliability under continuous operation, the unit integrates a brushed DC motor with analog speed control, enabling precise manual adjustment across its full 0–300 rpm range. Its 20 mm reciprocating stroke provides sufficient agitation for standard culture flasks, test tubes, and multi-well plates while maintaining compatibility with temperature-controlled enclosures when used as a benchtop shaker module.

Key Features

• Stable orbital motion with 20 mm stroke amplitude—optimized for gentle yet effective mixing of biological suspensions and immunoassay plates.
• Analog knob-based speed control offers intuitive, stepless adjustment from standstill to 300 rpm; no digital interface required for basic operation.
• Programmable timer with extended range (0–9999 s), configurable in seconds, minutes, or hours—supporting both short-term incubation protocols and overnight assays.
• Robust single-platform design (480 × 340 mm) with dual-layer rail clamping system (8 total rails) for secure mounting of conical flasks, glass tubes, and microplate carriers.
• Compact footprint (495 × 400 × 250 mm) and 100 W power consumption enable integration into crowded lab benches or enclosed incubator chambers.
• Brushed DC motor architecture ensures high torque at low speeds and stable performance across ambient temperature ranges (10–40 °C).

Sample Compatibility & Compliance

The TT-G06W accommodates common laboratory vessels including Erlenmeyer flasks (up to 2 L), centrifuge tubes (15–50 mL), PCR strip tubes, and 96-well microplates—when used with optional adapter plates. Its mechanical design meets general-purpose laboratory safety standards for Class I electrical equipment per IEC 61010-1. While not certified to ISO/IEC 17025 or GLP-specific validation protocols out-of-the-box, the shaker supports traceable operation when paired with external calibration tools and documented SOPs. Users performing regulated work (e.g., environmental testing per EPA Method 1664 or pharmaceutical QC per USP ) may incorporate the device into validated workflows through site-specific IQ/OQ protocols.

Software & Data Management

The TT-G06W operates as a standalone instrument without embedded firmware or connectivity options. It does not support USB, RS-232, or Ethernet interfaces, nor does it generate electronic audit trails. All operational parameters—including elapsed time and set speed—are manually configured and visually monitored via front-panel indicators (optional digital tachometer add-on available upon request). For laboratories requiring 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, external data loggers or programmable timers with timestamped output can be integrated upstream of the shaker’s power input to document start/stop events and duration.

Applications

• Microbial culture maintenance and subculturing in microbiology and fermentation labs.
• Suspension of mammalian or insect cell lines during passaging or transfection preparation.
• Antibody-antigen binding kinetics in ELISA and lateral flow assay development.
• Extraction and homogenization of environmental water or soil samples prior to analysis (e.g., heavy metal digestion, BOD/COD testing).
• Reagent equilibration and buffer mixing in analytical chemistry and quality control laboratories.
• Supporting role in stability studies when mounted inside temperature- and humidity-controlled chambers (e.g., ICH Q1-compliant storage conditions).

FAQ

Is the TT-G06W compatible with incubators or cold rooms?
Yes—the unit’s compact dimensions and low heat dissipation allow safe placement inside most standard CO₂ incubators (with ventilation clearance) and refrigerated chambers (down to 4 °C), provided power cords are routed externally.
Can I retrofit a digital speed display?
CZGY offers an optional tachometer module that mounts directly to the motor shaft and displays real-time rpm on an LED panel; this is a factory-installed accessory and not user-serviceable.
What maintenance does the brushed DC motor require?
Carbon brushes should be inspected every 6,000 operating hours; replacement kits and service instructions are available directly from CZGY technical support.
Does the shaker include vibration isolation feet?
Standard configuration includes rubber-damped leveling feet; optional anti-vibration pads (sold separately) are recommended for shared optical tables or sensitive instrumentation benches.
Is the rail clamping system autoclavable?
No—the aluminum alloy rail assembly is not designed for steam sterilization; cleaning is limited to 70% ethanol wipe-down and compressed air drying.
