The SBS40, Shaking water bath is equipped with a digital display unit and a user-interface for easy temperature adjustment. A selection of platforms is available, including linear and orbital shaking action. The platforms use powerful magnets, coupled inside a stainless steel tank, in order to provide the shaking motion. They are able to handle any size or combination of vessels, due to a series of high-tension springs, holding them in place. The heating unit is located beneath the tank for easy cleaning, while the low level water sensor serves to prevent dry running, by cutting power once water level drops below the safe minimum. In addition, a warning is also shown over a digital display, indicating low water level. To further assist maintenance a bath drain is also incorporated into the design.
