Edmund Buhler VKS 75 A control Heavy-Duty Orbital Shaker
Edmund Buhler VKS 75 A control Heavy-Duty Orbital Shaker
€7.704,00 excl. VAT
The VKS 75 A control is a floor-standing orbital shaker from Edmund Buhler, built for the heaviest loads in the range. It suits industrial and pilot-scale labs that need to agitate very large volumes continuously or over long durations. Its 760 x 600 mm platform holds a maximum load of 75 kg, with speed adjustable in steps of 5 from 30 to 200 rpm. Installation is floor-only, with the unit weighing 110 kg before accessories. The programmable touch screen drives agitation across 10 programs of 10 segments each, with a log of interruptions. The unit ships without a platform or fixation rack; the VKS shaking plate and Combifix VKS racks are added as needed. At full load, a set of floor-fixation rings is recommended to stabilize the unit.
Edmund Buhler VKS 75 A control Heavy-Duty Orbital Shaker
A floor-standing orbital shaker for the heaviest loads
The Edmund Buhler VKS 75 A control is a floor-standing multi-flask orbital shaker, built for the heaviest loads in the range, with a maximum load of 75 kg.
Installation is floor-only: the unit weighs 110 kg empty, before adding a platform or rack.
Touch screen and programming
The capacitive touch screen, glove-compatible, allows manual or automatic operation over 10 programs of 10 segments each, with a log of interruptions for traceability.
Speed adjusts from 30 to 200 rpm in steps of 5, over a 26 mm stroke.
Platform and load capacity
The 760 x 600 mm platform holds a maximum load of 75 kg. The unit ships without a platform or fixation rack, to be selected separately based on vessel format.
- 32 Erlenmeyer flasks of 500 ml, or 12 flasks of 2000 ml
- 6 separating funnels of 1000 ml
- Defined Stop available as standard, Safety Package as an option
Platform, racks, and multi-tier systems
The VKS shaking plate (1 tier) and the Combifix VKS A, B, or C racks allow the fixation to be matched to the protocol.
Optional multi-tier systems, with 2 or 3 levels, allow processing capacity to be increased on the same floor footprint.
Ideal Applications
The Edmund Buhler VKS 75 A control suits the following applications.
- Industrial and pilot-scale agitation of very large volumes
- Heavy loads up to 75 kg, continuous or long duration
- Labs needing multiple rack tiers for capacity
- Integration with robotic systems (standard Defined Stop)
- Positions requiring remote operation (USB, RS 232)
Choose the VKS 75 A control when:
- You need to shake very heavy loads, up to 75 kg
- Floor installation is possible in your laboratory
- You need multiple rack tiers to increase capacity
- You want to store and repeat industrial agitation protocols
- An orbital motion suits your protocol
Buhler Value Proposition
The VKS 75 A control combines a 75 kg maximum load, a programmable touch screen, and multi-tier rack systems, for the most demanding industrial agitation in the Buhler range.
Edmund Buhler has manufactured laboratory shakers in Germany since 1880 and remains a family-owned company.
