Page 3: Introduction
1.0 Introduction Congratulations on purchasing your Labnet VorTemp™ 1550 Shaking Incubator. This shaker is designed for simultaneous heating and mixing of small samples. It replaces two devices, reducing both time and space needed. It is suitable for biochemistry, microbiology and clinical laboratories in which applications require temperature and shaking treatment. -
Page 4: Technical Description
4.0 Technical Description 4.1. Construction The housing of VorTemp™ 1550 is constructed of steel plate coated with highly resistant polyurethane lacquer. The interior chamber is isolated with special thermal protection materials and insulation foam. Both the shaking mechanism and temperature chamber regulated via microprocessors, which control all sensors for motor speed, temperature and time. -

6.4. Platforms There are two platforms available for VorTemp 1550™. The 50 mL Conical Tube Platform can accommodate up to 8 x 50 mL test tubes. The 15 mL Conical Tube Platform accommodates up to 18 x 15 mL test tubes. -
Page 6: Operating Instructions
NOTE: If you work with temperatures over 50°C, we recommend the use of special microtubes which are designed for use in thermal cyclers. These tubes are molded from plastic designed to withstand temperatures as high as 135°C. The thin-walled construction also allows for fast heat transfer and reduced heating times. - Page 7 After a 2 second delay the unit will then default to the time setting. Encoder Time [min] Power 99.5 RPM [x10] Start Stop Temp [°C] Time Illuminated With the Encoder knob, right (+) or left (-) sets the run time to the desire value from 30 sec to 99 min 50 sec: 99.5 = 99 min 50 sec 9.59 = 9 min 59 sec 0.30 = 30 sec...
- Page 8 Push encoder knob to adjust the Temperature setting. Encoder Time [min] Power 37.4 RPM [x10] Start Stop Temp [°C] Temperature Illuminated Rotating the encoder right (+) or left (-) set the temperature to the desired value: 37.4 = 37.4°C If you want use shaker without temperature control activated turn the encoder under 0.5 or above 99.5 until the display reads “OFF”.

Temperature Adjusting During a Run Push the Encoder Knob until the RPM light is illuminated. Rotate the encoder right (+) or left (-) until the new value is set. While adjusting the RPM, the light will pulse. When you stop rotating the encoder knob, the RPM light will stop pulsing after 2 sec. Encoder Time [min] Power... -
Page 10: Troubleshooting
8.0 Troubleshooting The VorTemp features built in self-diagnostic procedures which are constantly checking the operating parameters and performance, as well as functions that are necessary for safe and reliable operation. An error code is shown on the LCD display if an error occurs. Sample of Error display: Encoder Time [min]... -
Page 11: Temperature Calibration
9.0 Temperature Calibration The temperature control software allows for user calibration of the temperature settings. First, measure the temperature in the middle of the chamber after allowing the temperature to equilibrate for two hours. The temperature should be measured with a digital calibrated thermometer with precision 0.1°C or more. -
