LAB COMPANION SIF5000 Incubated Shaker – Temperature Controlled Laboratory Orbital Shaking Incubator

LAB COMPANION SIF5000 Incubated Shaker – Laboratory Temperature-Controlled Shaking System

The LAB COMPANION SIF5000 Incubated Shaker is a laboratory instrument designed for controlled-temperature incubation and continuous shaking of biological, chemical, and microbiological samples. Manufactured by JEIO TECH under the Lab Companion brand, this equipment combines temperature regulation and mechanical shaking in a single laboratory system. It is designed to support experiments that require consistent incubation conditions and uniform mixing of liquid samples.

The SIF5000 is suitable for research laboratories, biotechnology facilities, microbiology laboratories, pharmaceutical research departments, and industrial testing environments. It provides a controlled chamber environment for applications involving microbial cultivation, cell culture research, enzyme studies, and other laboratory procedures requiring temperature-controlled agitation.

The equipment combines an incubation chamber with an integrated shaking mechanism. This allows samples placed inside the chamber to be maintained at a selected temperature while undergoing continuous orbital or reciprocating shaking. Controlled shaking helps improve oxygen transfer, nutrient distribution, and mixing within liquid culture media.

The SIF5000 features a digital control panel with display indicators and operating buttons. Users can monitor and adjust important operating parameters, including temperature, shaking speed, and operating time. Its microprocessor-based PID temperature control system helps maintain stable chamber conditions during laboratory experiments.

The temperature operating range is ambient temperature plus 5°C to 80°C. This broad temperature range makes the instrument suitable for different incubation requirements, including the cultivation of microorganisms and temperature-dependent biochemical experiments.

The shaker supports a variable speed range of 10 to 300 RPM, allowing users to select appropriate agitation conditions for different sample types. It offers selectable orbital and reciprocating shaking modes, providing flexibility for different laboratory procedures. The standard shaking amplitude for the SIF5000 is 19 mm, with a 25 mm option available.

The equipment also features programmable shaking functions, including forward and backward motion and pause settings. Its timer supports extended operation, making it useful for experiments that require controlled shaking over long periods.

The incubation chamber has an approximate capacity of 80 litres, providing space for laboratory flasks and other compatible sample containers. Its transparent front viewing window allows users to observe samples during operation without frequently opening the chamber door. This helps minimize unnecessary temperature fluctuations.

The SIF5000 incorporates safety and convenience features such as an open-door alarm, high-temperature limit settings, and a lockable door. Its internal illumination assists sample observation, while the adjustable fan system supports temperature distribution throughout the chamber.

The instrument is designed for reliable laboratory operation and includes a maintenance-free brushless DC motor. Its programmable control functions, temperature calibration, and automatic tuning capabilities support convenient operation in demanding research environments.

The LAB COMPANION SIF5000 is particularly useful in microbiology, biotechnology, pharmaceutical research, biochemical analysis, and industrial research laboratories. It provides a practical solution for experiments requiring simultaneous temperature-controlled incubation and shaking.

The pictured equipment is identified as a LAB COMPANION SIF5000 Incubated Shaker. The exact condition, installed shaking platform, clamps, accessories, and operational performance should be confirmed before purchase.
