About This Manual

This manual is designed to assist you in the optimal usage of your Labnet Vortex Mixer.

The manual is available in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish on

our website at www.labnetinternational.com/document-center

Introduction

The Labnet Vortex Mixer is a general purpose laboratory vortexer. Mixing speed is

adjustable up to 3,400rpm. A three position switch allows the mixer to be operated

continuously or by “touch” activation. The shaking mechanism is specially designed to

offer enhanced stability under various loads. The metal baseplate and rubber feet

provide additional stability and prevent the unit from “walking” across the bench, even at

maximum speed.

Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to operate the Vortex Mixer. All persons

operating this piece of equipment should review the Safety Precautions section of this

manual.

Unpacking the Vortex Mixer

Upon receipt of the Vortex Mixer, examine the exterior carton for damages. In the event

of shipping damage, a claim must be filed with the transportation carrier within 10 days

of receipt. Save all packaging for inspection by the carrier.

Carefully unpack the unit and check for completeness. Included in the carton should be

the following:

Vortex mixer with cup head

Line cord

Instruction manual

If any of these items are missing, contact Labnet’s Customer Service Department

immediately. Save the original packaging until the unit has been shown to be operating

properly.

Verify that the unit is rated for the proper voltage by checking electrical / serial no. label

on the back.

Installation

Locate the mixer on a level, stable surface near a grounded electrical outlet. The

surface should be clean and free of dust to ensure that the feet grip the surface firmly.

Allow sufficient clearance on all sides of the unit for proper ventilation.

With the power switch in the OFF position, plug the power cord into a grounded

receptacle.

Operating the Vortex Mixer

All operating controls are located on the front panel. The power switch, located on the

left side of the panel, has three positions - TOUCH, OFF and ON. When set to the

TOUCH position, the mixer is activated by depressing the mixing head. When pressure

is released from the mixing head, operation will stop. When set to the ON position, the

mixer will operate continuously until the switch is moved to either the OFF or TOUCH

position.

The speed control, located on the right side of the panel, is continuously adjustable.

Oscillating speed increases at a non-uniform rate to a maximum of 3,400rpm as the

knob is turned clockwise. Before turning on the mixer, set the speed control to the

minimum.

To begin operation, move the power switch to either the TOUCH or ON position and turn

the speed control to the desired setting. If the power switch is in the ON position, the

shaking head will begin moving immediately. If the power switch is in the TOUCH

position, operation will begin when an object is placed on the shaking head and slight

pressure is applied to depress the head. Shaking will cease when the object is removed

and pressure released.

Mixer:

Care and Maintenance

Warning: Disconnect the vortexer from power source before attempting any

cleaning or maintenance procedures.

After each use, wipe down the mixer with a soft cloth. Do not immerse the unit or pour

liquids over it as electrical shock may occur. Clean up any spills immediately taking the

proper precautions. If required, the shaking head may be removed. First, disconnect

the vortexer from the power source and then remove the combo-cup head by holding the

housing securely while pulling up on the head. The head may then be cleaned with a

mild detergent. Be sure the head is thoroughly dry before replacing it on the unit.

The motor and shaking mechanism in the Vortex Mixer require no routine maintenance

or lubrication.
