Ohaus SHHD1619AL Analog Heavy Duty Orbital Shaker

An economical, analog entry into the Heavy Duty line

The Ohaus SHHD1619AL is an analog orbital shaker in the Heavy Duty family, built for labs that want reliable bench shaking without digital control or the higher price point that comes with it.

It shares its mechanical platform, orbit, and accessory ecosystem with the digital SHHD1619DG, differing mainly in its analog control and the absence of digital-only features such as RS232 and load sensing.

Triple eccentric drive for a flat, stable tray

A brushless DC motor paired with a triple eccentric drive keeps the tray flat through the entire speed range, avoiding the vertical wobble that a single-eccentric drive design can introduce at higher speed.

The motor is maintenance-free, which keeps running costs down over the life of the shaker.

Orbit, speed, and weight capacity

The 19 mm orbit and speed range of 25 to 500 rpm suit general-purpose orbital shaking of flask cultures, bacterial and yeast suspensions, and extractions.

• Weight capacity of 16 kg at 75 rpm, scaling down to 2.3 kg at 500 rpm
• Timer adjustable from 1 to 120 minutes
• Working environment of 0°C to 40°C, 80% RH, non-condensing

Included tray and the wider accessory ecosystem

The SHHD1619AL ships with a built-in tray (279 x 330 mm) and a non-slip rubber mat, ready to accept flask clamps, test tube racks, and platforms from the shared Ohaus accessory ecosystem of 70-plus options.
