Estimated delivery time: 3-5 weeks

The SM 30 C is a universal reversible shaker from Edmund Buhler, with a motion that switches between orbital and reciprocating depending on the application. It suits labs that alternate between several high-load protocols without wanting to add more instruments. Its 560 x 400 mm platform holds a maximum load of 30 kg, with a stepless speed range of 15 to 300 rpm. The stroke is 26 mm, identical to the SM 30 A in orbital mode. The unit ships without a fixation rack; the Combifix SM racks and the TH 30 incubator hood are added as needed. A programmable timer from 0 to 120 minutes, or continuous operation, covers most laboratory protocols. At full load and high speed, a set of floor-fixation rings is recommended to stabilize the unit.

Edmund Buhler SM 30 C Universal Reversible Shaker

A reversible universal shaker, orbital or reciprocating

The Edmund Buhler SM 30 C is built to switch between an orbital motion and a reciprocating motion depending on the protocol to run, with a maximum load of 30 kg.

This dual function avoids adding more instruments to a position where several types of high-load agitation are required.

Speed and stroke

Speed adjusts steplessly from 15 to 300 rpm, over a 26 mm stroke, identical to the SM 30 A orbital mode.

Platform and load capacity

The 560 x 400 mm platform holds a maximum load of 30 kg. The unit ships without a fixation rack, to be selected separately based on vessel format.

  • 42 Erlenmeyer flasks of 100 ml, or 20 flasks of 250-300 ml
  • 6 separating funnels of 250 ml, or 2 of 1000 ml
  • 4 test tube racks

Rack and fixation accessories

The Combifix SM A, B, or C racks, the SM universal tray, and the 2-tier top frame allow the fixation to be matched to the protocol.

At full load and high speed, Edmund Buhler recommends fixing the unit to the floor or table with 4 PVC rings (0002 754).

Combining with the TH 30 incubator hood

The SM 30 C can take the TH 30 incubator hood, which turns the shaker into a combined shaking and temperature-controlled station, up to 50°C.

Ideal Applications

The Edmund Buhler SM 30 C suits the following applications.

  • Labs alternating between orbital and reciprocating agitation at high load
  • Extraction with separating funnels
  • Heavy loads up to 30 kg
  • Versatile positions requiring two modes of agitation
  • General chemistry and biology laboratories

Choose the SM 30 C when:

  • You need a single instrument for two modes of agitation at high load
  • You alternate between several protocols without adding instruments
  • Your sample load goes up to 30 kg
  • You want to select the rack that fits your vessels separately
  • You are considering adding a TH 30 incubator hood

Buhler Value Proposition

The SM 30 C combines a reversible orbital and reciprocating motion with a 30 kg platform, for a versatile universal shaker for daily use.

Edmund Buhler has manufactured laboratory shakers in Germany since 1880 and remains a family-owned company.
