iSwix Analog Variable-Speed Vortex Mixer
Straightforward, dependable vortex mixing
The iSwix combines an easy-to-use rotary speed controller with powerful vortex action up to 2,800 RPM. Samples can be mixed instantly by pressing a vessel against the cup attachment or processed continuously using one of the supported platform attachments.
Its counterbalanced construction and substantial die-cast base help keep the mixer stable during operation, while the compact footprint allows it to fit comfortably onto crowded laboratory benches.
Set the mixing intensity in seconds
The front-mounted analog dial provides quick adjustment from gentle sample agitation through to vigorous vortex mixing. There are no complicated menus or programming steps.
Rapid vortex generation for resuspension, reagent mixing and routine sample preparation.
Three practical operating positions
Vortex action begins when the tube or vessel is pressed against the cup attachment.
The mixer runs continuously at the selected speed for longer mixing procedures.
Places the mixer in its central resting position when operation is not required.
