The Miniature Vortex Mixer VORTEX-1 is a compact laboratory mixer designed for rapid and efficient mixing of small-volume samples in test tubes, centrifuge tubes, beakers, and other compatible containers. With a vortexing motion, touch and continuous operation modes, and a durable compact construction, it provides a practical solution for routine sample preparation in clinical, research, educational, and laboratory environments.

Description

The Miniature Vortex Mixer VORTEX-1 is a compact benchtop laboratory mixer designed for fast and effective mixing of small laboratory samples.

The mixer uses a vortex mixing motion to rapidly agitate compatible liquids and samples inside suitable containers. This makes it useful for routine sample preparation, reagent mixing, resuspension, and other laboratory procedures requiring efficient agitation.

The VORTEX-1 is designed to accommodate small containers with a diameter of up to approximately 30 mm, including suitable test tubes, centrifuge tubes, and small beakers.

The supplied product information describes the unit as providing a fixed operating speed of 4000 RPM, while another specification lists a speed range of 1000–2800 RPM. Because these specifications differ, the exact speed configuration should be confirmed for the selected model before purchase.

The mixer provides touch and continuous operating modes, allowing users to choose between momentary mixing and continuous operation according to the laboratory procedure.

A brushless DC motor provides smooth operation with reduced maintenance requirements. The compact construction makes the VORTEX-1 convenient for laboratory benches where workspace is limited.

The upper casing and test-tube contact surface are constructed from inert plastic, while the bottom section uses coated zinc die-casting for a stable and durable base.

Vortex Mixing Action

The VORTEX-1 creates a rapid vortexing motion to agitate compatible liquid samples.

This type of mixing can help combine liquids, resuspend sample material, and prepare small-volume laboratory samples efficiently.

Container Compatibility

The mixer is designed for small containers with a diameter of up to approximately 30 mm.

Compatible applications may include:

• Test tubes

• Centrifuge tubes

• Small beakers

• Other suitable small laboratory containers

The container should be properly positioned before starting the mixer.

Operating Modes

The VORTEX-1 provides two practical operating modes:

• Touch Mode: Mixing is activated when the container is pressed against the designated mixing surface.

• Continuous Mode: The mixer can operate continuously for applications requiring ongoing agitation.

The appropriate mode should be selected according to the laboratory procedure.

Speed Configuration

The supplied product information contains two different speed specifications:

• 4000 RPM fixed speed in the product description

• 1000–2800 RPM adjustable speed in the detailed specifications

Because of this discrepancy, the exact speed range or fixed-speed configuration should be verified for the specific VORTEX-1 model before purchase.

4.5mm Orbital Motion

The product description specifies a 4.5 mm orbital mixing motion, providing rapid circular agitation of compatible samples.

The actual operating characteristics should be confirmed against the manufacturer's technical documentation for the selected configuration.

Brushless DC Motor

The VORTEX-1 uses a brushless DC motor according to the supplied product information.

A brushless motor can provide smooth operation and reduce routine motor-maintenance requirements.

Compact Laboratory Design

The miniature configuration makes the vortex mixer suitable for laboratory benches with limited available space.

Its compact design allows it to be positioned conveniently near other equipment used during routine sample preparation.

Construction

The upper casing and test-tube contact surface use inert plastic, while the lower section is made from coated zinc die-casting.

This combination provides a practical construction for regular laboratory use and helps provide stability during operation.

Applications

The Miniature Vortex Mixer VORTEX-1 may be suitable for:

• Clinical laboratories

• Medical laboratories

• Research laboratories

• Hospital laboratories
