ALEMADR-MSC — Laboratory Dry Block Thermo Shaker Incubator –20°C to 100°C, 0–1500 rpm
OVERVIEW
ALEMADR-MSC is a compact thermo shaker incubator (oscillating metal bath) designed for simultaneous heating, cooling and mixing of small-volume samples in microtubes, PCR tubes and microplates. A high-precision brushless DC motor provides quiet operation, soft start and excellent speed stability, while PID temperature control and Peltier cooling ensure fast ramps and tight temperature uniformity over the entire –20°C to 100°C range.
The instrument features a two-line LCD display that shows set and current temperature, shaking speed and time at a glance. A built-in power-off recovery function automatically resumes the program after power returns, and safety functions such as overheating and overload protection, interval mixing modes and menu lock make ALEMADR-MSC a reliable choice for intensive daily use in molecular biology, clinical laboratories and general sample preparation workflows.
