Benchtop Shaking Incubator 50-70 L, 20-300 rpm, RT+5 or 4 to 65°C, UV Sterilization, Soft Start

The Master Science Benchtop Shaking Incubator combines a temperature-controlled chamber with an orbital shaking platform in one compact unit. It suits flask cultures of bacteria, yeast and cells, as well as hybridization and other reactions that need steady mixing at a set temperature.

The platform runs from 20 to 300 rpm with ±1 rpm accuracy on a 20 mm orbit, starting gently to avoid splashing, and locks automatically if speed goes out of control. Two models heat from 5°C above ambient to 65°C; the LY model adds cooling down to 4°C. UV sterilization, power-failure recovery and a waterproof chamber floor are standard.

Key Benefits

• Two jobs in one unit: The Master Science Benchtop Shaking Incubator heats and shakes in a single benchtop footprint.
• Cooling option: The LY model works down to 4°C for temperature-sensitive cultures.
• Safe for liquids: Soft start limits splashing; the chamber floor is waterproof.
• Resumes after outages: Power-failure recovery restarts the run automatically.

For CO2-controlled suspension cultures, see our three-layer CO2 shaking incubator, a larger option than the Master Science Benchtop Shaking Incubator.

Culture Problems the Master Science Benchtop Shaking Incubator Solves

Using a separate shaker inside an incubator wastes space and gives uneven results. The Master Science Benchtop Shaking Incubator addresses:

• Two machines on the bench: Heating and shaking share one compact unit.
• Splashing at start-up: Soft start brings speed up gradually.
• Cultures overheating in warm rooms: The LY model adds active cooling.
• Runs lost to power cuts: Automatic recovery restarts the program.
