Air Bath Oscillator LABO-A11

This Air Bath Oscillator uses reciprocating oscillation, which means the platform moves back and forth in a straight line. This motion is particularly suited for processes that require consistent and uniform mixing, such as the cultivation of cells or microbial suspensions. Unlike orbital shakers, which introduce circular motion, reciprocating oscillators reduce shear stress on sensitive samples—especially useful for handling delicate cell lines or fragile biochemical compounds.

Yes, as Labtron’s Air Bath Oscillator features an exceptionally flexible timer that allows for countdown settings from 0 to 999 hours and 59 minutes or up to 9999 minutes, in addition to a continuous operation mode. This is a significant advantage for long-duration experiments such as overnight incubations, fermentation, or prolonged mixing protocols. Researchers don’t have to reset the device repeatedly, saving time and ensuring uninterrupted conditions. This extended timing capability also minimizes the need for additional timing equipment.

Contamination control is a major concern in labs, especially when dealing with microbiological cultures or sterile media. Our Air Bath Oscillator offers an optional UV sterilization feature, which helps sanitize the interior chamber between uses. This not only prevents cross-contamination between experiments but also helps maintain aseptic conditions—crucial for studies involving pathogens, cells, or sensitive chemical reactions. UV sterilization adds a layer of biosafety and convenience, eliminating the need for separate disinfection processes or reliance on external sterilizing equipment.

It supports dual power input of 110V 60Hz or 220V 50Hz, making it compatible with electrical standards across most countries. This is a practical advantage for international labs or institutions with global procurement needs. It also makes the device an attractive choice for multinational research facilities, academic collaborations, or contract research organizations that require standardized equipment across different locations.

The temperature control is highly accurate, maintaining a fluctuation of only ±0.5°C within the range of room temperature +5°C to 60°C. This ensures consistent conditions for sensitive biological or chemical processes.
