Page 3: Introduction
4.0 Technical Description 4.1. Construction The housing of VorTemp 56 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. -

The motor drives the eccentricity control mechanism which generates the orbital motion of the sample platform. The motion of the motor also drives the fan, which moves air over the heating element and throughout the temperature chamber. The convection action of the airflow creates a very uniform temperature environment throughout the chamber. -

5.2. Microplate Holder Platform CAUTION: Be careful if the unit has been used to heat samples because the internal components can be extremely hot and can cause burns to uncovered skin. Always check the handle temperature before changing the platform. The Microplate Holder Platform is designed for shaking up to 4 microplates or 2 deep well microplates. -

6.0 Safety Information NOTE: Be careful when changing the microtube platform, especially when you have used unit at temperatures higher than 60°C. Always wear protective clothing before you handle a hot platform. The unit will continue to shake for 5 seconds after the lid is opened. Be careful when opening the lid as the parts inside may still be in motion. -

8.0 Operating Instructions 8.1. Control Panel Encoder Time [min] Power 88.8 RPM [x10] Start Stop Temp [°C] 1. Power Key – switch ON (illuminates when on) or OFF. 2. Run – green signal light illuminated when the shaker is operating. 3. - Page 8 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 If you want the unit to run continuously, set Time on hold.
- Page 9 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”. Press Start/Stop Button Run and Time are illuminated.

8.3. Shaking Without Heating If you want shake samples without heating, set Temp to OFF. 8.4. Heating Without Shaking If you want heat samples without shaking, set RPM to OFF. NOTE: The shaker motor drives the fan, which circulates warm air throughout the chamber aiding in temperature uniformity. -
Page 11: Troubleshooting
9.0 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 12: Temperature Calibration
10.0 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. -
