Description
This used Edmund Buhler KS 15 A orbital shaker is a robust and reliable laboratory shaker designed for continuous mixing and agitation of samples in research, pharmaceutical, chemical, and industrial laboratories. It is ideal for shaking Erlenmeyer flasks, culture vessels, separating funnels, and other laboratory containers requiring uniform orbital motion. The system offers a strong 15 kg load capacity combined with a large 400 × 300 mm platform, making it suitable for both small-scale and medium-volume laboratory workflows. With a continuously adjustable speed range from 30 to 420 rpm and a precise 17 mm orbital stroke, the shaker ensures reproducible and consistent mixing results. The unit is supplied as the basic shaker with the shown tray insert for flasks.
Built with classic German engineering quality, the KS 15 A is known for its long service life, low maintenance requirements, and stable operation even under continuous load. The analog control system with simple rotary knobs allows easy adjustment of speed and timer settings. The integrated timer supports operation from 0 to 120 minutes or continuous running mode for longer processes. Its compact benchtop footprint and durable construction make it suitable for daily use in analytical laboratories, microbiology labs, production facilities, and educational institutions where dependable shaking performance is required.
