Advanced Digital Sample Mixing
Precise control from gentle agitation to vigorous vortexing
The iSwix VT is a high-performance digital vortex mixer designed for laboratories that require accurate and repeatable control over mixing speed and duration.
Its variable speed range of 300–4,200 RPM accommodates everything from gentle low-speed shaking to rapid, vigorous vortexing. Microprocessor-based closed-loop control helps maintain the selected speed, even as the mixing load changes.
The digital display alternates between speed and time, allowing operating parameters to be monitored clearly. A timer of 1–999 minutes, continuous operation and programmable pulse mode support both routine and more demanding sample-preparation workflows.
A maintenance-free brushless DC motor, built-in counterbalance and robust housing provide quiet, stable and dependable operation throughout regular laboratory use.
Digital Speed and Time Control
Set, monitor and repeat your mixing conditions
Select the required speed in precise increments and set an operating time from 1–999 minutes. During continuous operation, the display alternates between the selected speed and remaining time for convenient monitoring.
300–4,200
Digitally adjustable RPM
Run–Stop–Run
Programmable pulse mixing
Programmable Pulse Operation
Create repeatable intermittent mixing cycles
Pulse mode alternates between active mixing and rest periods. The user can programme the required ON and OFF durations, helping standardise repetitive procedures and providing more controlled treatment of sensitive samples.
Operating Modes
Select the right operation for each workflow
Touch Mode
Vortex action starts when a tube is pressed onto the cup attachment and stops when it is removed.
Continuous Mode
Runs automatically at the selected speed and time for hands-free operation with compatible attachments.
Pulse Mode
Provides intermittent run-stop-run mixing using default or user-programmed pulse intervals.
Standby Mode
Keeps the mixer inactive while parameters, attachments or samples are being changed.
Features
Designed for accurate and adaptable mixing
Wide Speed Range
Adjustable from 300–4,200 RPM for gentle agitation through to vigorous vortexing.
Brushless DC Motor
Provides quiet, dependable performance with a long service life and minimal maintenance.
Closed-Loop Control
Microprocessor control helps maintain accurate speed under changing sample loads.
Built-In Counterbalance
Supports stable operation and helps reduce unwanted movement across the bench.
