The UM12 is suited to a variety of mixing applications including medical diagnostics, haematology, sample preparation etc. The optional 3 prong clamps can be secured in any position enabling containers to be held at different angles to produce varying mixing actions. The digital speed control has a range of 40-400 RPM and is controlled from the easy to read front panel. A large LED display shows set speed and actual speed. Slow acceleration is incorporated in the drive system to reduce the risk of spillage. The timer can be set from 0-99 in either minutes or hours, in addition 3 memory buttons allow repeat time/speed patterns to be stored. When required the UM12 can run for extended periods unattended.
