Edmund Buhler SM 30 C control Programmable Reversible Shaker
€5.337,00 excl. VAT
The SM 30 C control is the programmable version of the SM 30 C universal reversible shaker from Edmund Buhler. It suits labs that want to store and repeat orbital and reciprocating agitation protocols at high load. Its 560 x 400 mm platform holds a maximum load of 30 kg, with speed adjustable in steps of 5 from 15 to 300 rpm. The capacitive touch screen, glove-compatible, allows manual or programmed operation over 10 programs of 10 segments each. The unit keeps the dual function of the SM 30 C, orbital or reciprocating, with a 26 mm stroke. The SM 30 C control accepts the same racks as the SM 30 C, as well as the TH 30 incubator hood. USB 2.0, RS 232, and control interfaces are available as options for remote operation.
Edmund Buhler SM 30 C control Programmable Reversible Shaker
The programmable version of the SM 30 reversible shaker
The Edmund Buhler SM 30 C control reuses the reversible mechanical base of the SM 30 C and adds a programmable touch screen to store and repeat heavy-load protocols.
Speed adjusts in steps of 5 over the same 15 to 300 rpm range as the non-programmable version, in orbital or reciprocating mode.
Touch screen and programming
The capacitive touch screen, glove-compatible, allows manual or automatic operation over 10 programs of 10 segments each, with an audible and visual end-of-program signal.
A programmable delayed start and automatic restart after a power failure round out the programming functions.
Platform and load capacity
The 560 x 400 mm platform holds a maximum load of 30 kg, over a 26 mm stroke in orbital mode.
- Speed from 15 to 300 rpm, in steps of 5
- Programmable or continuous operation
- Log of interruptions for traceability
Safety and integration options
USB 2.0, RS 232, and control interfaces are available as options for remote operation, alongside the Safety Package for speed monitoring.
Rack and fixation accessories
The SM 30 C control accepts the same racks as the SM 30 C (Combifix SM A/B/C, SM universal tray), as well as the TH 30 incubator hood.
Ideal Applications
The Edmund Buhler SM 30 C control suits the following applications.
- Labs alternating between orbital and reciprocating agitation at high load
- Protocols that need to be reproduced exactly
- Integration with robotic systems
- Heavy loads up to 30 kg
- Positions requiring remote operation (USB, RS 232)
Choose the SM 30 C control when:
- You need a single programmable instrument for two modes of agitation
- You want to store and repeat heavy-load protocols
- You need a log of interruptions for traceability
- A glove-compatible touch screen suits your workflow
- You are considering remote operation via USB or RS 232
Buhler Value Proposition
The SM 30 C control combines the reversible motion of the SM 30 C with a programmable touch screen, for a versatile universal shaker with precise control.
Edmund Buhler has manufactured laboratory shakers in Germany since 1880 and remains a family-owned company.
