Description

Barnstead Maxi Mix II M37615 Vortex Mixer [used]

Intended Use:
The Type M37600 vortex mixers are general laboratory vortex mixers. They are intended for applications where vortexing of single or multiple tubes is required. Vessels with closure tops up to a maximum of 125 ml can also be vortexed.
The unit consists of 1) a mixing surface disc, 2) a three-position power switch and, 3) an adjustable speed control (See Figure 1).

Principles of Operation:
The mixer incorporates a permanently lubricated motor to drive the mixing platform. A three-position power switch enables the mixer to be operated continuously or by depression of the silicone rubber top. The speed of the mixer is regulated by an adjustable rheostat. Also, suction cup feet are incorporated to prevent unit movement.

Speed Control:
The speed control is a nonlinear type control. The oscillating speed will increase at a non-uniform rate as the control is turned clockwise.
To operate Maxi-Mix, move power switch to either the
“FULL” position or the “TOUCH” position. Turn speed control to the desired setting. Touching the vessel to the disc will initiate the vortex action. Mixing action will intensify as greater pressure is exerted against the mixing surface. To stop the mixing action, remove vessel from disc or move the power switch to the “OFF” position. (See Maintenance and Servicing for installation of the single cup mixing head and the mixing surface disc).
