Labnet S0600 Enduro MiniMix Nutating Mixer
Introduction
The Labnet Enduro™ MiniMix is a three-dimensional nutating mixer typically used for maintaining the uniform suspension of liquids over transfer membranes with a minimum volume. The Enduro MiniMix is also ideal for processing Western Blots and staining and destaining PAGE gels.
The Enduro MiniMix achieves its 3-dimensional mixing by combining the rotating motion of an orbital shaker with the rocking motion of a platform rocker.
Symbols and Conventions
- The electrical warning indicates the presence of a potential hazard that could result in electrical shock.
- This symbol refers you to important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions within this Instruction Manual. Failure to heed this information may present a risk of damage or injury to persons or equipment.
- This symbol identifies a Protective Earth (PE) terminal, which is provided for connection of the supply system’s protective earth (green or green/yellow) conductor.
Installation
The Labnet Enduro™ MiniMix can be used on a bench, in a cold room, or in an incubator up to 40°C. Place the unit on a flat, stable surface, and be sure to leave sufficient room around the unit to allow both the platform and load to move freely. A minimum of 4 inches (10cm) clearance on all sides of the mixer is advised. Plug the unit into a properly grounded outlet of the appropriate voltage as shown on the unit’s data plate label.
Operating Instructions
The flat matted pattern is configured to allow four 8 x 10 cm (Bio-Rad, NuSep) or two 10 x 10 cm (Lonza, Invitrogen) blotting boxes to be securely placed on the mat without additional strapping. If blotting boxes are to be stacked, they should be secured with rubber bands.
Holes in the corners of the platform edges are provided for this purpose. Always load the platform in a uniform and balanced fashion. Use the power switch to turn the unit on. The direction of rotation in which the unit starts is random and does not affect mixing.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Always disconnect the cord from the power source before maintaining or servicing. The Labnet Enduro MiniMix requires no maintenance other than occasional cleaning with a damp cloth with mild detergent. The rubber mat may be washed with soap and water.
